    Froch was very impressive against Abraham, but I think he comes up short against Ward.

    froch will beat ward worse than he beat abraham

    the biggest worry is they wont get to fight and we will have to see Froch demolish Abraham again

    I agree with this. Froch will look similar to what he looked like against Dirrell, except Ward will land more. Imo anyway. I hope i'm wrong. Would love to see Froch win the tourney.

    Ward looked good against Kessler, but im think he could be a little over rated

    Kessler beat Froch on work rate that is it, Froch was better in every other department

    Ward hasnt looked good at all in his following two fights

    No but he's won them. He might not necessarily look good against Froch either. But he will still probably beat him. Unfortunately.

    Froch showed a lot in that fight. I believe Froch will beat Johnson, but he will be in a precarious position until the final bell. I also favor Froch in a rematch against Kessler. With Ward, I have trouble seeing Froch hitting him enough to beat him. And Ward will be sufficiently fast to get within Froch's reach to smother him and beat him on the inside. Either way, Froch has impressed.

    The thing about Froch that impresses me is his ability to adapt. He can play it rough like he did with Dirrell or fight a smart game plan like he did with Abraham. Along with his power and reach he should give Ward all he can handle.I would like to seee him hit Ward hard early, may make him stand off a bit where Froch can tee off a bit. My two cents.

    It ain't Christmas unless Wacko's in town!

    man.

    Froch definitely showed a level concentration that seemed to be lacking. I hope he can hold it together against someone as spiteful as Ward.

    I think he can win it. Ward won't be as difficult for Froch to find in the fight as Dirrell was, and I don't think Ward will have the power to stop Froch or back him up. Obviously Ward has the advantage in speed and movement, and could win quite a wide decision based on the fact that he is technically a very skilled boxer. But I think if Froch stays disciplined, he can get to Ward and beat him. At least I hope he wins, the Cobra's really grown on me over the last year or so
