    yes, this is why Warddke is looking for decent fights in rehab clinics, the usual suspects are way to easy for him:rofl

    Why are you guys all hung up on Ward coming to England to fight? You all mention it like it's really important that he just has to come over there. It's a little suspicious, to be honest.

    The only bit that annoys me is ppl saying why should Ward travel, he is the champ ect ect, many of the same people seem to have a go at Calzaghe for not traveling and making people come to him. Same goes for ppl bashing Ward but defending Calzaghe tho. Why is there so much hypocrisy lol

    Ward is not a big draw in his home country (for now anyway) whilst Froch is a huge draw in his home country. So Froch calls the shots (for now). At this stage, there's no reason for Froch to give up home advantage. If Ward wants his biggest ever payday he'll have to dust off that passport. If not Froch has lots of easier options for as big paydays and Ward has to move up a division or maybe have an early retirement in sunny Oakland?

    For the record Ward beats Froch 9 times out of 10. The one time he loose's is in London or Nottingham. The crowd atmosphere would be a shock to his system.

    LOL at saying Abraham's '0' when Dirrell destroyed him and knocked him down, the DQ was legit regardless if Dirrell acted or not and even if It carried on Abraham weren't winning for ****

    Fans are changing wins to fit their fighters achievements lol terrible

    Because Ward is currently a SMW and there is no bigger draw in the division than Froch.

    Froch went to Ward's backyard and didn't get the nod, why can't he find his passport & come over here? There is no bigger fight out there for him as of right now.

    Froch can laugh all he wants, it doesn't change the fact that he was beaten handily by a guy with one good hand.

    Willie Joyce beat Ike Williams every time they fought. Ike Williams being far FAR greater.

    Froch's resume may surpass Ward's when it's all over.

    Ward v Froch has to happen.

    Personally don't think froch can beat him, Ward's style is a nightmare for Froch but I do see a rematch being closer

    Ward's resume:

    Mikkel Kessler (with ease who later beat Froch)

    Arthur Abraham (fromer champion at 160 yes I know Froch also beat him)

    Sakio Bika (Current world champion)

    Alan Green

    Carl Froch (With a broken hand)

    Chad Dawson (The number 1 fighter at 175, easy)

    Not bad at all

    Here's a numerical breakdown of Andre's work I posted up in the Ward resume thread; anyone want to do a Froch version so we can see how it stacks up?

    By the numbers

    Ward's record against fighters who were:

    Rated at top 10 at 168 at time of fight: 5-0
    168 lb champions at the time of fight: 2-0
    Have ever held a 168 lb title: 4-0
    Were ever top 10 rated fighters (in any division): 7-0
    Were ever champions (in any division): 5-0

    Froch already lost. No need to fight him again.

    Kessler & the W over Froch is great, while AA is okay. Froch should deserve more credit, because he managed to outbox Abraham more than Ward. Rest is bullsh*t nowhere as good as Pascal, Taylor, Bute and Dirrell
