    I never understood why Boxers wear these long heavy trunks, I'd go for the short SRL style! Less weight on my legs

    The books have under 11.5 Rounds at 3-1.
    Dont see this going the distance like the majority believes.
    Ward is to active and can stop Froch by accumulation and Froch would need a
    KO to win.
    Great value on under. Really should be +150 not + 300.

    Round 4

    White is jabbing out high and slow, and getting peppered with volleys of uppercuts and two-fisted clap-downs to the sides of the neck. White is pushing his jabs out, looking tired and neglecting the body while Despaigne keeps chipping away at his and mixing in a few head shots. BIG left hook by White, backs Despaigne up momentarily but he can't follow up with much. A few winged power punches, not really getting through cleanly. Despaigne walks into a few jabs and takes a step outside to reset. Left hook by Despaigne grazing, then waving his upper body around to slip some White jabs.

    :think

    38-38

    Despaigne is a joke, never is going to fulfill the hype, imho.

    The brawl continues. For me, it's 3-1 White.

    White had the best single shot of the 4th but lost most of it on sheer inactivity and sluggishness.

    Ward isn't amazingly active, it'll take him 11ish rounds if he is going to get Froch out from accumalation.

    Froch will need to slow Ward down to take him out, that'll take 10/11 too.

    Save your money mate :good

    Round 5

    Jabs to the body and right hands by White. Overhand rights by Despaigne while ducking and rolling in and darting out. Despaigne dances back on his heels. White lands jabs to body and head, getting Despaigne to raise and lower his guard on the outside. Now Despaigne comes forward and jabs, building into a slapping flurry to the sides and trying to lean in on White. A few steps back from White and he gets his jab going again. Despaigne takes backward steps to reset and then comes back at White, looking for spots. White holds him at bay with jabs and rights. Nice left hook by White. Despaigne is poking out with arm punches, light and imprecise. Good combo by White upstairs, tagging Despaigne on the scalp as he tucks his chin and driving him to the ropes. Slapping right over the top by White and some body shots.

    10-9 White

    48-47 White

    White reminds me of Glenn Johnson
