    ^ Yet another ******.

    Froch wasn't "completely dominated" and you can still make excuses even if you lose 120-108 (or worse) because I've seen it done.

    Why do I get the feeling that some people are trying desperately to take this one away from Ward? :think

    I've seen plenty of fighters beaten more conclusively and still come out with excuses to try and discredit their opponent.

    Full props to the guy, admitted he got beaten by the better fighter with good skills on the outside and inside.

    You usually expect a guy to be gutted after a big loss (which obviously he was to some extent), but to hear him talk about getting in the gym, working on some things and coming back right after the fight shows how mentally tough he is. Hats off to him.

    I was impressed by him as well. He's a good personality for the sport and I hope he comes back strong. A rematch with Kessler on neutral ground might make for a good fight, unless Bute moves in that direction first prior to Ward.
