Comments Thread For: Froch Says No Thanks To Andre Ward, Eyes Chavez Jr.

[theboxingguru]

Stevenson wasn't even ranked in the top 10 at 168lbs at that point, he'd just gone 12 rounds with Donovan George. Kessler was second to Ward, and held a win over Froch. There was no question at that time as to which was the tougher fight.

But he fought Yusef Mack before Kessler, so all that tougher fight stuff isn't valid. He didn't want to fight Stevenson because he was a serious risk unknown to the masses or not.

You can call it whatever the f.uck you want. I'm That's aware of and understand the business side of boxing. Difference between you and I is that I don't criticize certain fighters when the best business decision doesn't line up with what's the better fight. And then flip flop and applaud the same from one of my favs. That what makes you a complete joke and lame as hell. And the fact that you're willing to sit and try and justify your double standards makes you an even bigger joke. It would be better if you'd just come out and say "I love Froch and don't wanna see him get his ass kicked by Ward again." Or, "he's nearing the end of his career and I'd rather see him matched up with guys I know he'll beat." Cause that's basically all you're saying anyway.

I don't have any double standards. You just said you don't give a *** about what fighters made but in this post you say you understand the business side. You're the one flip-flopping out of control. Make up your mind.

Froch-Kessler II was for 2 titles. Unification takes precedence over a mandatory. Froch didn't drop anything. It was a massive fight at SMW.

I can't believe ******s are now trying to revise history and claiming he should have fought a completely unknown Stevenson instead....LOL who had Stevenson fought?

I'll wait.

I asked a question b.itch.. If his punk ass is afraid to fight real fighters but fought Yusef Mack, then cool. Don't give the money excuse. Mack wasn't drawing flies and he fought him

Man i justed watched ward vs foch and ward is my fighter and all but he holds too damn much..but to me from an entertainment stand point, chavez jr brings more to the table then ward, and thats entertainment value!! Make it happen!!

Obviously Froch wants nothing to do with Ward he got schooled with relative ease which is why he's using the he isn't a draw excuse as a reason not to fight him

actually that was not all he said he also said hes a hard akward boring fight he didnt just use the draw hes saying its not worth fighting a fighter like that for pennies honestly hes being as honest as it gets

Stevenson had a final eliminator against Don George in October 2012. He became Froch's mandatory after that fight.

Froch fought Mack in November 2012.

You just got answered.....b1tch

Really surprised that he doesn't want to avenge his loss, but he couldn't wait to fight Kessler again. Froch knows he can't beat Ward... I honestly thought he lost to Dirrell also.

Agree with froch 100%. Admits ward is better but he's looking for the payday at his age. This is all wards fault anyways. Dude had dominated 168 already and has nothing to prove at that weight class anymore. Should've moved up a long time ago, or even move down. Seems like he makes 168 fairly easy. He thinks he deserves high praises and fighters should line up to face him but reality is he's the B side (cotto's voice) vs any of the big name because his inability to sell. Move up and fight koveliv! Nothing Else to prove at 168

So following the first fight with Froch. The semi-retirement because of eye issues followed by a couple unimpressive performances over journeyman and washed up fringe contenders made him #2 in the division. I swear you muthaf.uckaz will say any gotdamn thing.
