    They are probably both have some worries. Froch, because he already knows groves can knockout him down any time or maybe knocked him out as well. Groves, he is not sure if he can stand the pressure that froch is going to give him this time around, as evidenced by the last fight; he looked helpless as froch bombarded him with flurries, resulting in stoppage whether he deserved it or not.

          I watched a fight with BS Showtime commentary that makes a living fooling people like you. 118-110 is a joke of a score. 115-113 or 116-112 is more like it.

            Ward is not a fan freindly fighter and he dosen't make it easier by not fighting that often and being unwilling to travel. He should go to 175, that would be exciting and he could be in some big fights.

              I agree. He probably wants that JCC jr money before he heads up.
              I really don't want to see a rematch with Froch or Kessler or anyone else because the result will be the same.

              175 presents intriguing opportunities for him.
              I don't really anxiously await for his fights though he is talented.

              Just not my cuppa.

                yeah its hard to be excited by the safety first approach and below average punching power. If he fought Stevenson or Kovalev that would be a risk, that would bring excitement and he would improve his status if he won.

                Chavez jr seems to go for golovkin, i guess ward could wait for the winner but that might turn out bad if golovkin goes back to 160 for cotto martinez winner.

                    I hope not, but then again it'll be funny seeing how extremely bitter he's going to be seeing all of the fans and money a Froch event brings in compared to his hometown clinchfests in Oakland. He's really boring though.

                      If anybody should take some risks it's Golovkin.

                      GG is matched like he's 22 instead of 32

                      Ya'll want Ward to move up but not GG...what kind of crap is that?

                      Trust me...

                      You do not want Ward to move up...
                      He would CRUSH Kovalev.
