Carl Froch: Andre Ward 'open' to rematch with British fighter

[Bushbaby]

I don't even know why Ward is looking, pursuing or even entertaining a Froch rematch. The dominating winner of any fight needs to move on. Froch is a step backwards. Ward id becoming persistently harder to swallow for me, as a fan I want him to move on.

If you believe any are it should turn you away from the sport..True story,if I found out Football was being rig(any game)it would turn me away from the sport..That goes for any sport,once you find out it's rigged that should be all she wrote for that sport..Oh I get it tho,something only rigged when it does not match how you felt about it..Got it..

What a dumb statement

So if a handful of fights by one promoter I feel are rigged, I should stop watching boxing altogether?

All I can hope is for a fair fight and a good fight at that with a fair result.

Every sport has corruption one way or another, its up to the authorities to deal with it, its not the boxers fault some dodgy promoter is paying off judges or swaying on refs.

My point was simply Ward should avoid fighting Froch here in England and meet somewhere else like Vegas. He wont get a fair crack at the whip judging by some of Herns previous cards

There's been massive scandals with Italian football teams in 2006 and 2011/2012 in widespread proven match fixing scandals with a large host of previous, present coaches, players and more were heavily penalised.

I bet you still watched some Italian teams in the champions league or Italy in World cups.

Or based on your own standard...did you not watch them...further still start avoiding the sport entirely?

Sorry friend,I'm American..I give two ****s about your version of Football..I was more talking the NFL..There have never been any proof of cheating in the NFL and yes I do still watch it..Baseball,America's pass time has taking a huge hit..Why because of PEDS and owners knowing about it,not really rigging the game..I'd say allowing the players to cheat..Baseball is not what it once was because of this..

Oh and btw,I'm not the crying about the outcome and crying corruption either..So don't make this about me..Whoever is the one crying is the one who should stop following..No??

By your own words, any corruption in the sport would turn you away entirely from the sport.

By that statement then, please explain why you undermine this by still clearly watching boxing?

Suggesting any are corruptible is opening pandora's box and saying that any decision we don't agree with is as result of corruption..I did not like the Froch Kessle 1 result..It was in Kessler back yard(and let's not act as if Kessler promoter is not a shady muther ****er)I did not cry robbery or corruption even tho the scorecards suggested as much(not the outcome,but those were bad cards)..You have to chalk it up to that's how the judges seen it sometime..Like I said,in this sport if I'd believe what ya putting out..I'd personally stop watching it..

You clearly said you'd stop watching a sport if there was any proven match fixing. I've linked proven examples of scandals and match fixing in boxing. You have no answer for why by your own standard you continue to watch boxing and undermine your statement.

Oh, and here's some American Soccer sporting scandals:

You've been utterly factually undermined by your own standard yet continue to argue and duck points when it doesn't go your way.

I've never said there was no corruption in the sport..If you look throughout history there is plenty..What my point is if you believe any fight that does not favor a popular opinion or does not mirror your own means corruption why follow the sport??It's not only this Hearn business..It's many people crying about any fight that does not go the way they believe to have saw it..Marquez KO's Pac,he's on PEDS now..Pac comes up in weight like a bat outta hell,he's on PEDS now..I just don't get it..People(with no proof)always talking about cheating..Why follow the sport then??
