    Ward is American. The fight was in America. The judges thought the fight was that close.

    thats like saying froch isn't at home if they had fought in london and i am sure had that happened and froch won you would be the first saying home town advantage

    Yeah I know he went to Atlantic City, that was still home for him compared to where his opponent was coming from. It doesn't have to be against Froch, it could be in England against Kessler or anyone. Would just be nice to see him leave his comfort zone.

    Fights are just better when they are overseas. It'd be more elctrifying than watching Ward hug it out with Dawson in front of 4,000 people in Oakland.

    This concept of home advantage seems to be completely alien to people from America. It's amazing.

    You think because Ward beats Froch in America, that is what happens everywhere on the planet. It doesn't.

    Look at football, or soccer, if you will...

    Spain are the best team in the world

    Their home record in the last 5 games is 5 wins 0 losses.

    Their away record in the last 4 games is 2 losses, 1 draw, 1 win.

    Spot the difference?

    Ward outside of America, as with any away fighter, will not be undefeated for long.

    I'm not sure why this is so hard to understand for Ward fans.

    I think Froch fans think that Froch had no fans in A city or something you could hear the crowd was mixed pretty neutral ground and Ward outclassed Froch. They were both thousands of miles away from home. I think they are just bitter Ward did not get robbed like the judged robbed Dirrell but I am going to let you guys be because Ward is not dumb enough to go to England and get robbed.
