Froch vs ward aftertthoughts

[Tam Seddon]

Froch started very slow and Ward was doing very well. He left it well too late and Ward hung in there. Ward clearly won the fight, but he certainly knows Froch isnt a mug. If they fought again, Froch needs to start like he did against Bute, he would have more of a chance of winning then.

How do you think a rematch would turn out? Ward was flagging a lot in the late rounds I thought and was quite swollen towards the end.

If Froch starts the fight slow like the first fight then I think Ward will win another UD. The only way Froch has a chance is if he goes for it from the start and doesn't get countered so easily. But if he does go for it and throws a lot that could open him up even more to be countered by Ward.

It's a tough one because I don't see Froch outboxing ward, ward really is that good. He did certainly look tired and slowed down dramatically by the later rounds against Froch. So as I said before Froch would have to not give away too many of the early rounds and try and get him out of there later on.

I certainly think Froch looked at his best against Bute, and he doesn't look like he's detoriating at all. He looks better each fight. I just hope he can get another shot at Ward because I think he would do a lot better than last time. But he is 35 now and the rematch couldn't happen for at least another 2-3 fights if it could happen, and Froch could maybe be getting older by that point?

Id love the rematch to happen though, sooner rather than later. Ward fully respects Froch and knows he's the number 2 so hopefully he can give him another shot.
