Froch vs. Ward - Saturday fight/chat thread

[armin]

Didnt watch after fight commentary or scorecards figured clear enough win for ward why listen to em, but wow 115-113 those are awefully close. I gave froch 3 rounds and those rounds he won cause he went balls out, as much heart as froch has i always feel like he leaves a little bit in the tank, and that cost him the kessler fight. Bute could compete with ward in speed and outside skill but think ward would make it an inside fight and hed maul bute, and i used to think bute would win but ward might just be a bit to good all around. Also really ward fought clean and didnt really do any spoiling in this fight imo and was fairly exciting.

Let you know how much the super six meant to the outside world... Absolutely nothing! Usually after a big fight espn will send a text alert letting you know the winner... Got nothing

You have to be joking!

I thought Smoger was supposed to let them fight as a ref? He kept allowing Ward to smother, hold and hit. He has adapted his "style" to holding like Hatton did and its fucking ugly! Hes either got his arm around their waist or their elbow, hes never stood where a fighter is supposed to be and avoiding shots by using head movement or any kind of defence, just by smothering and pushing his head against the opponents chest. He neevr once got warned for it but the ref did split them a few times

I think Calzaghe would have had an easier time with a younger Hopkins than the one he fought and I thought he beat Hopkins decisively. It was only a close fight really for the first 4 and then Calzaghe made his adjustments. Hopkins always comes on down the stretch, he only hasn't done so against Calzaghe. A younger Hopkins would have given Calzaghe more opportunities to get off his punches.

I really believe Calzaghe is better than Hopkins no matter what, prime Jones Jr is more difficult. None of these Super 6 fighters is a patch on either Hopkins, Jones nor Calzaghe.

Ward is not that hard a fight for Calzaghe. I really believe that.
