    Neutral site? Big fights in Ireland?

    Who has hometown advantage? At least Ward would have a few fans there!

    Who wins?

    Kind of a unique twist, you think?

    Why wouldn't it happen? No big fights in Ireland?

    I think they should hold it in Froch's living room, personally.

    Ah Ireland's favourite son finally comes home :lol:

    Lots of Poles to cheer on Froch, lots of Irish to root for Ward. As highly unlikely as it sounds, it actually makes sense in a way.

    Well, the English wouldn't have to travel far to attend. Hardly call it traveling at all, would you?

    Would actually be nice in theory. In reality, Ward and his handlers don't know that Ireland exists and that it is different from England. Nice try though

    Have a feeling he was well aware of that when he posted. ;)

    Good idea, and not too many of them on this board.

    There's no reason for Ward to move out with his titles to rematch someone he already beat. And seriously, Ireland is NOT neutral.
