Froch won the 5th and 12th seeing as Ward only ran there. (cant blame him) The judges that had it 115 - 113 should be suspended.
Ward was never in danger of losing the fight even if Froch won more rounds. The reason being what Jim Watt said. Once one fighter is too far ahead on the cards to be caught, some judges start giving rounds to the losing fighter to even things up.
^ ******. I think that the fight seemed less close than it was because Ward was winning his rounds much more cleanly than Froch was winning his. So while I didn't have Ward winning by such a big margin in rounds, he was still winning very clearly. I can't imagine anyone scoring that fight for Froch.
I had Froch winning maybe 2 rounds and drawing another, but it wasn't as one-sided as Ward fanboys are making out. Ward did the better work but Froch didn't take an extreme amount of punishment, this was no Lacey-esque hammering.
If they would have wanted to have Froch the winner then Froch would have won! the one who diserve the decision won so nothing to complain here!
115-113 is a legit score. I had it 116-112 for Ward but the guy I was watching it with had it 115-113. I think Froch won rounds 3, 9, 11, 12. And you could make a case for one of rounds 5,6, or 8 i don't remember which one. 118-110 is just ****ing mind boggling. That guy is nuts. Oh and the commentators were sucking Ward's nuts HARD.
I had it 116-112 too, but I actually don't think that 115-113 is legit. The 8 rounds that Ward won were very clear. Perhaps not totally disgraceful scoring, but definitely incompetant. Just because someone is having a better round, it doesn't mean they get the round.
:rofl This dude is pure clown. I hope we all realize this by now. You dont win rounds landing a few body shots while getting caught and hurt about 5 times a round. Ward was kicking Froch ass and the fight was not even competitive until the last 2 rounds and damn for sure not close. The **** is wrong with you.
