    Froch clearly won the stare down as Ward turned away first and wouldn't look at Froch afterwards. But a stare down doesn't mean ****, I thought Ward won the verbal battle when they had their face to face and that didn't mean a thing either. How these guys perform tomorrow night is all that matters.

    Ward's trainer seems to love be as close as possible to Carl, for whatever reason.

    He engaged Froch one on one in trash talk on FC360 as well. :D

    Do you know what happened to my "Both Kessler & Bute are calling for a fight vs S6 champ" thread last night? It's gone, just gone. WTF..!! -mods, Freddy/Jenna?!?

    (I seem to recall you had posted in it)

    Here is your answer to that:

    "you gotta respect a guy that has a beautiful girlfriend like he does" - Virgil Hunter

    I'm actually kinda worried. Froch is normally a bit nervy before fights. This cool and relax **** might be over confidence or worse yet delusions. Froch can't win a descision IMO, so realistically if he's not banking on winning the rounds and the only thing he can pin his hopes on is that his oppenent has the same chin he had in his 7th pro fight, frankly, he should be nervous.

    He's a ****ing creepy ass wierdo man. Complete nut case.

    I hope Rachele's in Froch's dressing room when he comes to watch Froch wrap his hands and I hope she gives him the business for that creep ass comment he made on fight camp.

    Ward's whole mantra this entire build-up has been not to give froch and inch and he's handled himself well so far. I don't expect him to back down if it turns into a slug fest tomorrow night either. Some one will have to crack. Its going to be a good night at the fights!

    When are people going to realise that weigh ins mean **** all other than if the guy is in shape and made weight comfortably. I remember everyone saying how terrified Calzaghe looked at the Lacy weigh in.:lol:

    How ripped the guy is and how much he looks "up for a fight" mean ****ing nothing. In a few cases you could see Tyson opponents look visibily uncomfortable on the ring walk and that does tell you something. But all this stare down **** is meaningless and trying to predict off it is utterly pointless.

    I'd love Froch to win, and hope he can get Ward to stand in the pocket with him, because that's his only chance. Ward has the better jab, better technique, superior speed, better combinations and better defence. Footwork there is not too much in it, but I'd give Ward the edge there too. Power? Maybe Froch just, but again not much to it, and with Ward you wont see every shot that lands, Froch will get caught time and again.

    Stare down nonsense and who has the best 6 pack..really need to stop being talked about.

    Ever see the stare down between Alekander Emelianenko and James Anderson? If that had been shown on ESB, half the forum would be predicting Anderson by vicious stoppage because Aleks was scared. Let's see how it panned out...

    But not knowing who either was, here on ESB people would have said "Look how he looks away and down at the floor". When Anderson was staring right at him, Aleks looked away and then down. He barely looked Anderson in the eye.

    But it meant **** all.:lol:

    He didn`t look scared if you ask me. But Ward allways seems to have the same look on his face.. So hard to tell
