    Ward did not put a clinic on against Froch at all. Just rewatched.
    Ward looked more composed than Froch, which gives a better impression of control, but try watching the fight without any commentary or sound, and you can see why the judges watched a close fight.
    Ward was leaning and holding which isnt a clinic, like many would like to dream it was. Ward definately didnt close the show.

    Rewatched and scored.


    Round 1 . Even round
    Round 2 . Ward
    Round 3 . Even
    Round 4 . Ward, full of holding and leaning
    Round 5 . Froch, clinical finish to the round
    Round 6 . Ward, close round
    Round 7 . Ward, full of holding and leaning
    Round 8 . Ward, full of holding and leaning
    Round 9 . Froch, tough round to call
    Round 10. Ward, tough round to call
    Round 11. Froch, but Ward holding and leaning
    Round 12. Froch

    A close win to Ward but not a clinic,

    A SMW clinic was Jones/Toney, Calzaghe/Lacy, Kessler/Andrade, etc

    Ward seemed to be struggling at the end, as he did against Bika and Froch is an old SMW.

    Try watching without the sound. I say that as many of you are like children, influenced by what others say.
    Do you think it was a clinic?

    Do you think Ward would have performed better in Oakland?

    Possibly felt under pressure not to be bias. Remember the British judge who scored Lewis/Holyfield 1 a draw?

    What you should really be asking is, would Froch have won a round in Oakland? :think

    More likely the two North American judges didn't want to appear bias to the North American, seeing as it was in North America.
