      Yes!!! Make this fight!

      I will be rooting for DeGale, I really liked his style in his fight with Gonzalez. That was the first time I watched him so I wouldn't be able to rate his true skill but I was impressed in what he showed me as a fighter.

        It's true but they ducked each other. They agreed behind the scenes to not fight each other in the super six and didn't mention it until the last minute when they were supposed to fight.

          I remember something about them not wanting to fight each other, but Ward sure as hell didn't duck Dirrell. Dirrell is the one who dropped out of the tournament.

            Would much rather see him fight a big foreign name, but it seems like the Jr fight isn't happening so it's either Degale or Kessler I guess. Prefer a decider, but it is what it is.
            Then how can it be pointless? It's maybe not the most exciting match-up but it's not pointless.

            if ward fought groves or degale you guys would be calling it a cherry pick

            degale is several steps below rodriguez. i expect you all to put him on a pedestal, of course, because you don't let reality get in teh way of your hatred for andre ward.
            DeGale is his mandatory.

            groves is the most overrated fighter on bscene. ward would be absolutely shredded for fighting him.

            is rodriguez great? of course not. he's done more than degale, for sure.
            Rodriguez didn't even make weight for Ward.

              it's important to recognize in constancy that froch got his ass kicked by andre dirrell. he was eating combinations, and literally ducking his head to get out of the way, the way a 10 year old does in the gym. he's a hugely overrated fighter. it's getting embarrassing for the brits. they're on the level with the PRS overrating cotto in the advent of the win over martinez.



              carl "forehead defense" froch.
              Hold on a second lol, Froch is hugely overrated and yet he's Wards best win? The fighter you call one of, if not THE best in the world. How the fuck can that be if his best win has reflexes that resemble a 10 year old in the gym?

              Everytime you downplay 'our Carl', you're taking away your mans best achievement. Take Carl of Wards resume and you're struggling to place Andre in the top 10 p4p, because you know, those Euro bums Kessler and Abraham don't hold a candle to the US fighters.

              You don't half chat shit sometimes lol.

Funnier still is froch thinking he's a bigger name than Chavez jr, with questionable decision wins against Johnson, dirrell, et al...and bar the groves fights man barely made 500k a fight, no doubt the British ball hangers will dispute.....but will once again have to understand that to the rest of the world most British fighters are ticket sellers/bums/paper champions.
                The rest of the world?? How on earth do you manage to keep in touch with everyone? Remember the british have around two thousand years of heritage to look back on for inspiration, while the USA has around two hundred years, which is why DC and Marvel etc create so many heroes (the country isn't old enough to have real ones), but they are on the forefront of entertainment and certain technological sectors. But again, this is the reason that your post is so blinkered, as demonstrated by your comment alluding to less than 500k a fight.

                What kind of moron measures a fighters legacy by his wages go to the library and sit with Floyd in the reading circle.

                JR doesn't want to fight Froch and probably never did, he was just a name bandied around after the wembley success with Groves.

                  Excactly, he does. Not like your hero, who's working with Conte and doesn't want travel. Who would call it a cherrypick if he fought Groves? I don't think anybody would.

                    New England is kind of a mystery. On NSB he is a USA-chanting tard who claims merely being American makes fighters "higher level" than inferior European fighters.

                    In the lounge he rants about banning guns and reeling in those rednecks and making the US more like Europe.

                    I think we have another Inkanyamba on our hands.

                      He's not as bad as Inkanyamba though, that guy is just straight up weird.
