    Carl Froch had wars with George Groves. That's not an accomplishment, that's actually quite embrassing. Almost as bad as rejecting a fight vs. Ward in England. Unless Ward comes to his granny's back fanny.
    Froch has fought Bute, Kessler and Groves twice since the Ward fight - winning them all.

    The point is, this fight is being mandated. Ward isn't taking it out of the goodness of his little heart. That's if it happens at all. But again, I admire your willingness to drop to your knees and open wide for your guy.

      Really? All he said was that he doesn't believe Ward is telling the truth when he says he will come to England. The two camps are still negotiating.

      I've never really believed the fight will happen because both guys don't particularly want it. They're both proud men though who don't particularly like each other so neither wants to back down and drop their respective belts at this stage.

        So why can't the fight happen now?

        Has to be in Nottingham?

          Nottingham makes the most sense since Froch will fill out the City Ground there even against Ward.

          Ward is asking for Wembley which is never going to happen.

          Maybe they can reach a compromise and do it at Villa Park or something?

            Good for Froch. Now he's ducking a Ward rematch on home soil. That kind of cowardliness ruins legacies.

              Andre Ward turned down the chance to fight Bute for his highest ever purse and Bute even offered to come to Oakland - was that "cowardliness" that ruined his legacy?

              The camps are still negotiating. Leave the big boy talk to them.

                Great fight.

                Hopefully Froch can catch ward clean and expose that china.

                  Because the judges and refs over here are as corrupt as can humanly be possible.

                  I know you understand this really and are probably just talking smack....because if you were serious it would be proof that you do need help.
                  The judges and refs in California can be even worse.

                  The behavior of referee Jack Reiss in the Ward-Kessler fight in Oakland was disgraceful.

                    Khan fans who route against Froch just because of some things he said about Khan are laughable.
                    Why are you having a go at me? I actually put Froch ahead of Calzaghe, Benn and Eubank plus picked him against Groves both times. Thack's life revoles around slating Khan, it's almost..........scratch it..........it really is pathetic.

                      You responded to my post about Froch-Ward at Wembley by calling him Carl "The Contradiction" Froch and suggesting he should be able to fill Wembley because he called himself a superstar.

                      Obviously Froch's words about Khan ducking Brook and just the general backlash towards Khan at the moment is getting to you.

                      Btw...I could probably make a movie based around Amir's contradictions and idiotic statements.
