    Whose Style Would Be More Difficult For Ward To Deal With -- Froch OR Groves?

    Who do you think has a harder style for Ward to deal with and would have the best chance of beating him.. Carl Froch (in a Ward rematch) or George Groves?

    Probably Groves since Froch hasn't looked well lately but he would beat both fairly easy

        Groves at this stage. Froch is well over the hill.

          Froch's got nothing on Ward and he knows it.

            Groves, but admittedly I think Ward wins both pretty easily

              No difficulty involved with neither Froch nor Groves

                If groves lands the shot he landed on froch on ward, ward goes to sleep.

                And ward has to avoid it for 12 rounds because he has feather duster hands.

                he's also slower than groves.

                I think it'd be his toughest night yet.

                  Big if. Plus if Froch could find him (Groves), Ward would catch him all night long. Easy ud either way.

                    If my Auntie had a ****, she'd be my Uncle. C'mon Earl, you know that Groves could fight Ward 1000 times and he'd never land that shot. Ward is a technical perfectionist, he'd never be that open and that flat-footed. It's hard enough to hit Ward at all, let alone with an absolute peach that he walks onto.

                    I think Ward would handle both pretty comfortably to be honest. For Froch, Ward is just an awful style match-up. I'd give Froch a good chance at beating anyone from 160 to 175, other than Ward. For Groves, Ward would be more like three steps up than one. I agree that Groves could give Ward trouble with his speed and power, but ultimately, Ward would have his way and to be honest, I dispute that Groves is faster than Ward. Ward is one of these fighters with deceptive speed.
