If you were Ward would you risk going to Nottingham for a judges decision?

    Absolutely not. I hope Froch wins but it's completely unfair for people to frame this as "Nottingham or it's a duck". Wembley should be good enough, it's not like they fought in Oakland last time.

    And your point ? Ward is willing to face him in the UK did Froch fight him in Oakland ? No .So Ward doesn't need to travel to Notingham

    my point is that judges scoring fights are just as bad in the US as in the UK, hell, the American and Canadian judg scored Ward's schooling of Froch 7-5 :lol:

    Get off the weed, son.

    Judging/reffing in the UK/Germany is the worst in the world. :hi:

    That's why the term "Early stoppages" have been replaced by "British stoppages" :hi:

    how do you explain an AMERICAN judge scoring Floyd-Canelo a draw?

    or AMERICAN judges seeing Rios beat Abril?

    Sturm, the German hometown favorite, lost to both Geale and Soliman in close fights :hi:

    I wasn't have a pop at you. I actually wrote that post a few weeks ago on a thread about Ward that got deleted and luckily I copied it before I hit submit. My problem is with His Holiness ''The Son of God'' Ward and his most devoted disciples, which I have no idea whether you are one or not. I had no reason to suspect you were.

    I just disagree with your assertion that it's ''fair''. What's ''fair'' for others isn't for Ward according to him and his disciples.

    When Froch fought Pascal the third man in the ring came from a neutral country and so did all three judges

    When he fought Taylor the referee was from Taylor's country, the judges from neutral ones.

    Dirrell - referee and two judges from a neutral country, the other judge from Dirrell's.
    Kessler I - referee and all three judges from a neutral country
    Abraham - referee and all three judges from a neutral country
    Johnson - referee and one judge from Johnson's country (adopted), one from a neutral one and one from Froch's country.
    Ward - referee and one judge from Ward's country, and one from Froch's and the other from a neutral one
    Bute - referee and one judge from a neutral country, one from Bute's and one from Froch's.
    Kessler II - referee and all three judges from a neutral country

    Compare that to all Ward's fights against world class opposition.

    For the record. I have no problem with them fighting in another English city outside of Nottingham.

    Yes.

    Carl Froch can't beat Ward, barring a fluke knockout.

    Both Froch and Ward know that.

    Pretty sure it's Ward's ego getting in the way...

    I won't be B-side, I'm above that. Froch shouldn't be making me rich, it should be the other way around. People around me try to convince me I'm not a draw, that's bullsh|t. I already flew all the way across America to fight him, he needs to come to Cali. He's not a superstar or even The Man in the division, he's not dictating anything. I can fight anybody in America and generate PPV money, screw him if he doesn't want any... I'll just fight Paul Smith on Black Entertainment Television, that'll teach Carl.
