Thread: Carl froch vs Andre ward?

What is the outcome of this match? Can froch pull it of and if so then how??

I think Ward will likely outbox Froch and headbutt and clinch his way to a UD. However, over the course of the Super Six Carl Froch has shown that he can compete with and defeat the best Super Middleweights in the world (I STILL think he beat Kessler) and I wouldn't be all that surprised to see him pull of the upset.

He's going to stop Johnson too IMO.

But how will froch pull it of? His jab is awesome and better than wards but ward is nimble?

Ward has the much better jab IMO, but Froch's determination, power, and chin have seen him beat skilled boxers before and might allow him to pressure Ward, tire him out, and hurt him.

IMO It's hard to picture the fight but ward is similar to dirrell but lacks the reach dirrell had and I thought froch had a better jab than dirrell. Well I thought Kessler was a pressure fighter and look what ward did to him!!

Froch has no chance IMO. Ward's speed and defense will own Froch. Froch will be beat to the punch and pot shotted all night. The super six tourney is a complete joke anyway, not even interested in these fights anymore.

You're not much of a boxing fan if you're not interested in watching the best fighters in a division compete against one another. The Super 6 has had plenty of problems, which is understandable for such an ambitious undertaking, but I'm still very interested in the final fights.

Kessler is much more of a boxer-puncher than a pressure fighter, though to be fair Froch showed that he could box pretty well in his last fight.

Yeah the tournament has not run smoothly but we are still getting most of the top guys in the division fighting each other one way or the other. I haven't seen all the fights but have listened on the radio or read the reports and i think it's good. Most of the fights arr 50/50ish or there abouts and that can only be good. Had some very close fights and some controversial moments. Plenty of drama and more to come. Froch v johnson could be anything from a quick stoppage to a long drawn out close war.

Even with fighters dropping out i think it has been good for the sport. Last man standing, if it's close rematch if not take on Bute and there we have the genuine no.1 in the division. Fuck the belts

froch will win by KO

ward has a good style for him

aye

are you?

ward is over rated as a pro, whos he beat? kessler?

I don't think he'll look that great against Johnson to be honest, although he should still win.

Think Ward will beat him though. Bad style match-up for him.

i think the other way dude

froch is stronger than ward, ward will find it tough fighting the way usually fights

he has a chance if he uses his skills on the back foot but its not his normal game
