Ward vs Froch....Atlantic city

[denilson200]

I can't wait for this one, has the potential to be a good contest. I really hope Froch can do it, he's put in some much hard work and has beaten some great fighters along the way. He does deserve to be in this final, he's facing a tough fighter in Ward and it won't be easy for Froch. I can see why carl is the underdog in many peoples eyes, but Froch has the ability to adapt to different fighting styles and I think that what will make this interesting. Both men offer a lot to the table in terms of their styles and I think it's going to be a case of who wants it more. Both man have the potential to win the fight, just hope Froch can win this and fight Kessler again.

To be honest. I can't see Froch winning a round, let alone the fight. I can see and 120-108 scorecard for all three judges scorecards. It's gonna be a total and utter shut out for ward.

Ward is slick but froch has the power and work rate to trouble any one, i think frochs underated and doesnt get the credit he deserves, frochs been in with tough top class fighters for his last 6 or so fights now and only kesslers beat him which was close decsion, i think froch has a genuine chance of winning this fight! and will giv a really good account of himself even if he does get beat

If the Froch who fought Johnson shows up he will find it very tough. I thought Froch clearly beat Johnson but he did not look that good.

right now i'm thinking Ward UD but plenty of time to think about the fight in depth and change my mind. Froch needs to be in the mindset that he needs to lay it all on the line and rip the titles from ward. He aint going to win a boxing match, the way he carries his arms and still hasn't been knocked out amazes me. People have been criticizing him for it since his early pro days so he isn't going to change it anytime soon.

Would love to see Froch get the victory. I love how he has no problem travelling and hasn't waited until the end of his career to go for the big names, his intentions have been known since before he was British champ, he's tough as nails, loves a fight and is cocky - great combination!

Will froch work rate and stamina overwhelm Amy ward that turns up Ward is easier to hit that dirrell

[Mar]

Fight could be on cybertron for all it matters. Love carl, but ward will have no problems boxing him if not fighting him and if that don't work mauling him.

[Dropanuke]

What if the fight took place on veridian 5??

[Dropanuke]

Seriously though, froch isn't dumb like Abraham and Allen green or bika as ward can't smother froch as froch will keep away and out range ward

[erics44]

Froch by KO

[Dropanuke]

Seeing as froch has a higher workrate and punch output than calzaghe I have to agree froch win by early ko

I agree. It will be a closer fight than the Abraham was or the Green fight. I actually thought the Bika fight was competitive for a bit. Ward just has more in his repertoire than Froch and for the first time for Froch, he's facing someone with the desire that matches his. Would I be shocked if Froch eeked out a close decision by having the stronger punches and maybe staggering Ward a few times? No. To me, it's just more likely Ward takes it like 8-4/9-3. How happy is Fenster that the S6 is finally finishing?

Ward will win but if Froch wins this then this victory would be up there with Honeyghan v Curry.

[BIG H]

Ward will win but if Froch wins this then this victory would be up there with Honeyghan v Curry.

Dunno about that mate. Curry was arguably p4p number 1 when Honeyghan beat him.

If Froch wins by K.O ... Ward will demand Olympic drug testing afterwards

My god !!! Ward out of Cali for this one. Something must have went wrong with the negotiations.

I did get to see Johnson-Froch in A.C. but it does look like I will miss this one. I will be moving south the beginning of Sep. Damn shame I would have loved to have seen this one.

I think the S6 has been great for matching fighters tough. It makes "champions" like Bute look really weak when you consider the S6 competitors schedules.

I only ever said it wouldn't work as planned. I was proved right when Taylor retired after the first fight. Let alone other fighters being replaced, rows about home advantage, arguments about money, injuries delaying bouts, promoter/fighter fall-outs etc.

Just about every reason I gave for why it wouldn't work happened.
