    Basically every 'Superstar' they have has lost apart from Carl Froch

    Can he win against Ward and salvage some pride or will it be one of the worst years for English boxing in a long time?

    Definatly, Froch beating Ward would be a massive win.

    Typical shitty welsh comment. Who do you have apart from Clev?

    Gavin Rees? Buckland? Mccrinelli (Or however you spell his name)

    Least we have people who can fight at that world level, you have 1!

    Stupid small town in england!

    No matter how bad things get for England and English boxing, I'd rather be that to Welsh.

    Exactly, I love how they slag England, but without our govt financing them, they would be ****ed!

    Let them get independance and see how the country does!

    It's going to end on an ever more sour note because Ward is shutting Froch out.

    Khan lost a controversial decision but for the most part boxed beautifully. I was very impressed with his effort last night. He;'ll do better in a rematch with Peterson.

    I do agree, i worry ward is going to shut out Froch. Dirrell showed how to do it. I think Froch thinks he can walk through Wards power and land his own shots but Ward wont be there to hit. He is not going to stand and trade, and why should he as he will win from the outside.

    I set wards single overhand right hitting Froch ALL night.

    I want Froch to win but dont see it unfortunately (Moves his feet to slow)

    Poster why dont you refer to british boxing, which is actually in very, very good shape. I think you are trying to score points. british fighters had some excellent results in the world amateur championships, we have the olympics next year. Silly comment, you should be supporting froch next week if you are a brit, just like i did with burns or cleverly.
