Comments Thread For: Carl Froch, Folk Hero: Post-Fight Report Card

[MDPopescu]

Ward didn't beat Froch easily when he had home advantage, so what makes you think he would do it away from home?
Also, Froch has said many times that he would fight Ward in the UK, and Ward has said many times that he will only fight Froch in the USA.
Foch vs Ward at Wembley will not happen because Ward would never agree to it. Froch, I am sure, would accept that fight in a heartbeat.
GGG is a great fighter, I rate him highly, as a middleweight. But it would be wise for him to test the water at 168 with an easier opponent, before jumping straight in with a shark like Froch.

I don't like Ward because he's a "style demolisher"... But a "onehanded" Ward defeated Froch... Even Froch said that he felt like "pickpocketed" by Ward...
Just after the Froch-Kessler II (near the ring) Ward called for the Froch rematch at the Wembley Stadium -- therefore...
(I'd like to underline that I agree with Froch in not accepting a Ward rematch -- SOG is a calamity for the sport...)

good post, froch marked up andre ward and the last 3 rounds nearly stopped him. The two American judges scored it 115-113.

On ome soil and better prep(not being ill and inside sparring froch would beat andre ward)

Ending that rivalry with a one punch KO in front of 80,000 fans must have been an incredible feeling for Froch. Good on him, he really does deserve it because he has put his body on the line against top class fighters more than anyone in the last few years. I can only think of Cotto who has a similar resume full of dangerous fighters. Pacquiao and Marquez are up there too.

Everyone has their preferences in a fighter, and Froch is right up my street. He will fight anyone anywhere, and when he does he comes to fight. Win or lose he will not give up until the final bell. Perhaps not one for the purists but you can't argue with the run he has had.
