The rematch, Carl Froch - Mikkel Kessler 2 fight chat thread - Warriors Call !!!

[Violent Demise]

I'm not gunna slag Ward. He needs to come here. I think that interview was to put Eddie Hearn into a position to make him and offer. Like someone said he a few weeks ago on here, Ward just wants a big money offer from Hearn and he's just played a poker game there with that interview.

Also, contrary to popular opinion, Ward is not a runner. He is not a little bitch like Andre Dirrell. He will stand and fight when required and he is a world class fighter. His problem is that he is not a Floyd Mayweather draw. In the division, Carl is the money man because he's brought an entertainment factor. Like I said I think Ward wins in Carl's house, but still, why not take the risk and reap the reward? He has nowhere else to go.

Carl is the not money man. That's just laughable. He can bring some money in the UK. That's it. He wouldn't draw shit in the US. Or anywhere else. A true money man gets 70% or more of the purse. Floyd Mayweather is money man. Pac is a money man. Oscar De La Hoya was a money man. Mike Tyson was a money man. Carl Froch is no where close to a money man. How the fuck you gonna be a money man and make about the same as your opponent?

Ward's last fight against Dawson made him a $1.365 million purse. He'd make maybe four times that fighting Froch in thr UK. Ward can fight peeps at home and make Dawson money on HBO or travel and make a share of a PPV in Britain. Where else can Ward make that kind of dough?

Bullshit. Froch barely made 2 million for rematching Kessler. And he had to give Kessler just about the same amount. I don't believe that. Cuz if they straight up offered Ward the 8 million you say he'll make there is no way he turns it down

If this fight did 1 million buys then that's nine million dollars that the fighters/promoters get to split before that gate, HBO, sponsorship and foreinn TV sales are calcaulated. In America Ward/his promoter gets a chunk of a half full west coast stadium and whatever HBO pay.

There is absolutely no question that a UK PPV Froch is the biggest possible payday for Ward.

Ward is on record since his operation as wanting the biggest possible paydays.

Do the math baby.
