Re: Ward v Froch - negotiations underway says Hearn
It's the perfect time to fight for Froch, he's riding a hot streak and Andre has been cooling down on the sidelines.
Froch needs this fight for his legacy. If he never fights and beats Ward, as good as he was he'll always go down as AT BEST being second fiddle to Ward.
Re: Ward v Froch - negotiations underway says Hearn
Gr8 Points from Eric & Primo.
Abraham was considered the man going into the tourney & Froch wasn't expected to box him & well. Most, myself included thought it would be a slug fest. Props to Froch for showing another level to his game.
I think the SMW was Gr8 then & also think that Froch's best asset was/is his inner strength. I agree Dirrell was outboxing him. Yes he was getting outboxed & decked by Taylor. But when it is all said & done do we gripe or nitpick how a fighter wins? Or de we consider that is what Gr8 fighters do?
Gr8 fighters find a way to win, that is what makes Froch a Grrreeeaat fighter IMO.:cool:

Ward has said he is willing to fight in England. I think he has no choice.

Ward talks about coming to Wembley, this ,that, the other. He's been in this new contract since January, was supposed to fight End of March/Early April, he hasn't even announced a fight yet. Both of these idiots want everyone to talk about them and clearly miss the limelight, so they drop a bullshit bomb in now and again just to keep them relevant.
The worst thing is that these 2 are clearly the top of the division by a country mile in most people's opinions , yet by the time they step between the ropes (if ever again), they would've been out of the ring 18 months and 3 years respectively. What does that say about the rest of this so-called strong division?
if the governing bodies had any bollocks whatsoever, they would strip both of them of any and every title they have and make them fight eliminators for the right .
Re: Ward v Froch - negotiations underway says Hearn
I think Froch is injured so can not fight soon anyway. Ward has no excuse, he should stay busy and be active. It is the only big natural fight but I agree it could all be hype as Froch may secretly know he will never beat Ward and Andre will never fight outside USA.

Re: Ward v Froch - negotiations underway says Hearn
Well... seems like Froch wants a cool payday and the hell of a beating.

I do not think Froch would mind fighting the winner of Groves v DeGale especially if De Gale wins because revisiting Groves again would be a bore for Carl.
