There is no way Ward would travel to the UK for it sadly, and there is also virtually no way Froch could beat him. Don't see what else is on the table unless Chavez Jr would actually fight him.
Its going to be kinda funny when he cant get Chavez cause it makes no sense and Ward says well "he had his chance and he blew it"
This is the whole crux of the argument and why Froch was so heavily booed. The British Public like an underdog and have very little time for braggarts or those who shout about their own achievements and Carl could have helped himself by being a little more gracious and magnanimous about the situation, post fight. Instead he has virtually reverted to the pre-fight stance that he had, suggesting George was not even in his league and should be grateful for having shared a ring with him. The push bike incident encapsulates it perfectly.

In the same way that Lennox Lewis got booed for carving up Vitali, because of all the smack he was talking?
It was typical dare I say it Manchester home of the Ricky Hatton boxing/football thick as fuck boxing fan, mentality.
Short of bending over like a bitch there was nothing Froch could have said that would have kept the boo boys at bay.
I don't agree. The boos were only directed at Froch when he was halfway through the sentence 'Yeah I thought it was a good decision'.
Which was kind of my point. Of course he thought it was a good decision, he was on the winning end of it. He did go on to clarify this by saying of course he thinks its a good decision and of course George Groves thinks its a bad call. Go ahead and boo the decision all you like but don't boo me, I've given enough for you cunts over the years and I've done it again tonight you ignorant benders.
Froch was asked the question, he got half way through saying yes and the boo boys were on him, from that point on they were for him and not the decision. Its what happens. Personally I don't have any problem with how Froch addressed it.
