Carl always comes across well.
After he beats kessler a rematch with ward will be his legacy fight.
Carl can beat ward but he needs a different gameplan.
There is absolutely no way on earth that Carl Froch could ever beat Ward. Not in a million years. Ward is in a completely different league.Quote:

I did not watch it but saw him drink some coffee waiting to be interviewed. He comes across well, was his women in the crowd screaming?
Imho carl froch has the best chance and the only one in the divison that can cause ward problems.Quote:

Wards injury with his shoulder and his long lay off may have affected his style and he might not be the same fighter(could be better or worse).
This is carls best time to fight ward straight after keesler.
I didn't watch this but I cannot stand Froch. Would live to see Kesseler beat him again. His wife is hot but god she's annoying
Why do you dislike him?Quote:

I like Froch, a decent, honest fighter. Fights the best, not afraid to travel, always ends up in thrilling fights. You can't ask for more than that.
I'd take one Froch over 10 Broner types.
You can't be serious.Quote:

Did you not see the Froch v Ward fight? Froch was completely and utterly outclassed from start to finish. If anything Ward would win even more convincingly if they fought again.
People are getting unbelievably carried away with Froch's last two fights. Bute looked terrified and was basically exposed as a fraud and Mack was hand picked for a nice easy payday.
Froch is a stand up guy who comes to fight, but he is basic and very limited. He's already been beaten by Kessler and Ward and I have seen nothing that makes me think he could avenge those defeats - particularly the Ward loss. He could possibly squeak a home decision against Kessler if the fight is close, but that's about it.
Why not? Do you suppose people may have said the same thing prior to Lamotta or Pender fighting Robinson?Quote:

I like ward and its the best time for froch to fight him.
Froch needs to get arse into 2nd gear in the first part of the fight and he might have success.
If course ward is the top guy in the divison. All im saying is that froch has a better chance this time..if not, he retires rich.
Ward is coming from a serious shoulder injury too. So why not?
beat a cripple then shout about how great you are? ermmQuote:

Lets see Ward in hostile territory and away from the Oracle. Not only do people underrate Froch's boxing ability, they also underrate his ability to adapt and adjust. I don't think we will see a rematch unless Carl follows Ward to 175.
Ward likes to hold alot.reverse the tables and put him in an armlock.
Watched this last night, was good.
He's so passionate.
He has to be he is selling PPV. :)Quote:
