    Ward who hasn't lied about anything In the media

    Or froch who has written in his autobiography "I would never vacate a belt" lo and behold he drops his belt to duck degale

    Then says ggg is a beast then says he's too small
    Ward has lied though. He said he wasn't using Victor 'Balco' Conte any longer only for Conte to say that he still provided his supplements to Ward a week later.

    Ward also received an offer to fight Kessler in Denmark only to refuse it by stating that he'd make a counteroffer for a US fight but he never did.

          Carl doesn't want to rematch Ward because he will lose again. Ward is becoming one of the most feared men in boxing. He has Golovkin and Froch running scared.

            if Roc Nation win the bid Froch will have to vacate because he wont go to the States to fight Ward.

            If Hearns wins then same applies to Ward and Uk imo.

            Looks like someone is giving up their title!

            Without a title at 168 on the line I'm not sure that Chavez Jr will fight Froch either.

              Carl Froch is paying little to no attention to Andre Ward's claim of being willing to stage their rematch in the UK. Froch wanted the rematch to take place at City Ground in Nottingham - which Ward rejected. Ward says he is willing to face Froch in London but not in his hometown of Nottingham.

              The World Boxing Association recently ordered the two of them to fight each other. Froch holds the WBA's regular title at 168-pounds and Ward is the WBA's super champion at the weight. Ward won a twelve round unanimous decision over Froch in the 2011 Super Six tournament finals.

              Fair call from the Cobra.

              Except, I would be highly surprised if Ward could no longer make 168.

                Yep, and nobody should have a problem with that.

                  It's not about money; Froch doesn't want to lose again, period. He wants to fight Chavez Jr and retire.... He will avoid Ward and Degale and retire if he has to.

                    He is all but retired.

                    To get a better idea about how competitive Froch is/was..... check out his outstanding resume to date.

                      froch dont want to fight ward, its that simple. he knows he will lose.
                      I am a little mixed on this one.

                      Froch is about to retire, bringing his stellar career to an end, and he has already fought Ward..... so basically, he can do whatever he likes, including sleep with my wife.

                      If he wants the opportunity to avenge the defeat to Ward, he can take that option..... if not, no problem..... he can take a nice retirement fight, or quit now..... no problem with any of those options for Carl been-there-done-that Froch.
