    B level guy who achieved a hell of a lot based on his talent.

    When he fought an A level guy in Ward though he got completely outclassed.
    ward won by one round on judges cards, if you watch that fight it was a lot closer than people make out on here, froch had figured him out second half of the fight

        I got to check it out again.

        Many people were saying Ward's inside strength gave Carl problems.

          ward won early rounds but froch came on strong late, was 115-113 on two cards, boxingscene paint it as some 120-108 shut out

            Yeah Ward beat him both physically and mentally. Froch just didn’t have the answers.

            Ward knew he didn’t have an inside game and exploited that perfectly.

              That Mayweather interview where he dropped the 80k bomb...

                Those scorecards were terrible... that’s like saying Canelo beat GGG 118-110.

                Ward dominated that fight. I had it 118-110 same as John Keane. I don’t think you can give Carl more than 3 rounds.

                  Ward won clearly bro. I rewatched it last year.

                  Horrible style matchup for Froch.
