Unless its GGG , nobody wants to see this guy fight . I challenge anyone to drum up one opponent that a significant amount of boxing fans would love to see Froch in the ring against besides GGG ? ........... Crickets

I remember the fight and it does mean something. The last 3 and a half years also mean something, though. Ward has been wasting his talent, while Froch has continued to have a great career. I would love to see them fight again. Ward could boost his career back to where it should be, and Froch could try to avenge that one defeat left on his record.Originally posted by New England View Post
We already know it has to be in England to draw any kind of revenue, so why not Nottingham? Ward should be confident of winning, and it should draw money, so what is the problem?Comment

Froch is right, but he really needs to STFU or get in the ring. This is getting out of hand.Comment

Let's be honest...Ward works with Conte right? Ward take excessive breaks in between fights? Ward didn't want to fight in England because he'd be subject to random-blood testing...
Ward is clearly juicing...Comment

One of the most clueless statements ever made on this forum...Originally posted by SugarRaRobinson View Post
Froch can fight DeGale and sell out anywhere in the UK...
Ward's promoter has to pay to Ward's fight on Cable tv...Comment

I've always found this a bit odd myself but then I realized that it's all pretty relative if you think about it. The whole world would have known who Andre Berto was if he would made two decisions albeit one was a world disaster we won't hold against him; the first, sacrifice. Berto "chose" to cancel of his fight against Mosley to go tend to his relatives in Hatii, which is understandable, but a win there could have put himself in prime position to face Mayweather. Commitment, Berto simply peaked and never got better and while most will be quick to point out its Al Haymons fault for his lack of opposition ultimately the blame lies with Berto. This guy found a way to lose every career defining fight while simultaneously propelling the profiles of every Hispanic fighter that beat him. Victor Ortiz jumped right into Mayweather sweepstakes after delivering his best performance against Berto who many believe was being primed for Mayweather. Why did I choose Berto, b/c well for the most part at least on the surface, Andre Berto appeared to have all the ingredients to become a superstar. Flashy speed, super muscular physique, charm, a powerful promoter I meant manager, and most importantly the backing of the most network in HBO. Andre Berto has made more money than most of us will ever see but he's become the poster boy for what happens when black fighters lose focus and become less committed to the sport. Don't get me wrong there are some thing I consistently question but I always try to put things into perspective. Knock 30 guys out in a row, blind people want to pay to see you fight. Produce a sex tape, people want to pay to see you get knocked out. Win a gold medal but don't have the most crowd pleasing fights better keep winning until you 40 lol. Not really a race thing just that boxing hasn't really been a black thing in a long long time my friend, it's all about Any Given Sunday. After conducting this rant, I'll finally answer your question. What a black fighter has to do is follow careers paths of Tim Bradely, Keith Thurman and hopefully Terrance Crawford. These guys put on their respective hard hats and just go to work. They try to entertain but they make the most of their opportunity and that's all they can do. Consistently try to get better and do better in the process. Kind of like Um,"Reading" lolOriginally posted by tiliheels View PostComment

What a load of tosh.Originally posted by Pigeons View Post
The irony here is Ward's cowardice made Froch a superstar. His refusal to travel allowed Froch to nab the Lucien Bute fight, win in style, and become a household name.
Froch sells-out stadiums; Ward can't even fill a small hall in his hometown.

Such a pile of nonsense Froch is speaking. Whether the fights in London or Nottingham people will come for it. Froch just doesn't want to get his ass handed to him again.Comment

Ward needs to prove he can do 3 things and he'll command attention. Consistently stay healthy, stay active, immediately step up his level of opposition. His next fight should be one of these 3 fighters (GGG,Stevenson, Pascal). He could get away with fighting Lucian Bute next but at least travel to Canada.Originally posted by SugarRaRobinson View PostComment
