Carl froch's new found maturity...can he win the tourney?

[erics44]

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

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.

Ward will grapple, outspeed, and smother froch to death. Outboxing abraham is one thing and impressive. But ward is a whole different thing. I don't really know how good ward is really. But he is good at what he does.
