Lol, Froch tell him to fuck off.
Froch doesn't need the Ward fight, but Ward needs Froch.
Who sells those tickets? Froch.
Who has most belts? Froch.
Seriously who else does ward fight? Whereas Froch has A LOT of options.
Plus this way it'll always go down that Ward was a home fighter who ducked Froch.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.
Why? He was stripped of his belt, but he won't travel to win 2?
Then makes a ridiculous statement that he wants £50 million(which he knows he won't get)
How much did his highest paid fight make him? Now he's asking for Mayweather type money? Which is ridiculous because he's boring as shit.
How's is that not ducking someone? Most fighters would bite your hand off to win a world title and go anywhere.
So I'm sorry but in my definition of 'ducking', someone not going to fight for 2 belts because they don't wanna fight abroad, is about as clear as it gets

He has already whipped Froch's ass, that's all. "Ducking" really doesn't apply. I agree that Ward should rematch him the UK, absolutely. It's a tough spot to be in I guess though, being the top guy in the division but not having a lot of draw.
I understand what you're saying but your not understanding my point.
He wouldn't be ducking because he is scared.
I mean he would be ducking because he doesn't want a disadvantage.
Remember 2 judges scored it 113-115, so it wasn't as bad as you make it sound in the first fight.
How easy would that have been to make Froch' fight if it was in the uk?
That's why he's ducking.

I heard this as well. Notice that he didnt look at Cazlaghes fight, or say he did. He doesnt want to give Calzaghe a mention or credit because it would remind people that Calzaghe went one better. Would have been more beneficial because Calzaghe beat the best of Kessler and Calzaghe doesnt used holding as a tactic.
But then you are no different Ross, you can't bring yourself to give Froch anything but the slightest amount of credit. Froch can hardly be accused of emulating Ward's holding tactics but Froch is never going to be Calzaghe and there is no point in trying to emulate someone so different.
The ward fight was a 115-113 decision just as much as the kessler fight was a 118-110 decision, which is to say not at all unless you live in bizarro world and you wrote down some random scores and said fuck scorring a fight. Ward asking for fifty million tho is complete insanity, dude must have started doing some hardcore drugs, maybe just to get people talking, because there is no way he can be serious! I mean hell wlad is a BIG draw in germany and he only make like ten or fifteen mil a fight.
Nowhere in that article does Ward say £50m. In fact, they are direct quotes from his Sky interview. The Sun are trying to make it sound like this fight would draw that money in PPV & merchandise sales as well as gate attendance and their fees for the fight. Just Sun bullshit to make their article sell. The paper knows jack shit about boxing. That is why Frank Warren is their boxing columnist.
