    lol if they dont pay Ward he is not going to the UK. He will just continue to fight on HBO and not worry about it. Froch doesn't want the fight anyway

    I think Calzaghe only traveled once they tore down the ice rink in Cardiff.

    No one is putting up the money needed to bring Ward to whup Froch's axe in the UK. Froch and company know he can't win.

    Well, when you look at the scorecards tonight, you can understand why he would be apprehensive about travelling to the UK to fight. It wasn't robbery or anything, but two of those cards were pretty wide. Since Ward isn't likely to knock Froch out, he'll need a VERY convincing performance to win in the UK. I still hope he'll do it, though - not many other good fights left at the top of the division.

    He should take the trip, yes he beat both Froch and Kessler BUT look at the fan-base that Froch is bringing in.

    Ward is the man. One of the perks of being the man is having every single advantage in your favor. If another boxer doesn't like it, beat him and take his spot. This has always been what boxing is about.

    Bull**** !

    Its a money business, and Froch is the cash cow.
    Ward may be the better fighter but he has zero personality and charisma, so he won't generate dollars.
    H'es very very bitter about this situation, it was obvious in his interview last night.
    He has one option at 168 and thats fighting Froch in the UK.

    pretty much spot on ! Froch can draw files in UK and fill big arenas ! Froch doesn't need Ward as much as Ward needs Froch, period !

    if Ward will continually act like he's "the guy who calls the shots at 168" he'll end fighting nobody worthy ! Ward has to travel in UK and rematch Froch if he wants to make some good bucks and draw some attention ! :yep

    i've asked this many times but get no answer back. care to give me all the "hometown judging" fights that have happened in the UK?

    the fact that you are American and saying these sort of things, clearly show that you're deluded personified. i'd feel real shame if i was you. it's so sad the levels of stupid you go to over in Ameritard. :nut

    the widest card came from an American you fool. Froch won this fight clearly. 8 rounds to 4.

    yeah, i know what you mean. just look at when Kessler was the man before the super six. Ward had to go to Denmark to take the top spot. oh. no, wait...
     
  13. Did HBO show the Froch fight?? Which was contacted to Sky Sports

    Do all fighters who won the first fight, win the second or third if they have one?

    Do the ATG's fight outside their countries?

    You are obviously clueless

    Had nothing to do with being US and everything to do with being a *****. I've noticed more than a little incompetence when they score fights. Not that they own that exclusively, but they seem to be more incompetent than most since they have probably never actually been in a real physical dual.

    Your point is?

    Are all fighters Andre Ward facing against Carl Froch?

    Not all of them. Again, what's your point?

    No more than you, it seems. What a waste of time that was.
