Am I the only one that wants to see a Froch-Ward rematch?

    I love Ward but that was not the same Froch that he schooled. Carl looked faster, more accurate, and disciplined. Carl has shown he has the ability to listen to his excellent trainer, make adjustments, and come back a better fighter. I think he deserves a shot much more than boring ass Chad Dawson, and it will make far more money.

    Yes but not anytime soon. Would like to see Ward fight Dirrell before he rematches Froch (if he keeps winning)

    I actually agree, but not about Dirrell. I say he whoops Dawson, in the meantime Froch rematches Kessler in the UK, then if both win, Froch and Ward fight again.

    Voted wrong option. Ward is another class. Rather see Froch-Kessler actually.

    The result will be the same.

    Froch's best chance will come if he can get it done in the UK which ward will never agree too

    Not right away, but maybe down the line. A Froch-Dirrell rematch would be good to see first.

    Froch wont even beat Kessler, so pointless to fight Ward.

    Personally, I cannot understand why anyone would think Dirrell worthy of a rematch after the way he fought. Plus, he has done nothing to earn a rematch. Does he even want one?

    IMO Froch very nearly beat Kessler the first time in Denmark. He has become a much better fighter since then, whereas Kessler has deteriorated. If they fight again I'd be confident of a Froch win.

    I disagree, Froch has shown the ability to adapt and work a gameplan at the top level. I think Ward would still win, but he'd have to come with something new. Froch was clearly shocked by Ward's gameplan on the night.

    You're right in that Dirrell hasn't earned it, but there are several pieces to the Super Six puzzle that could use re-piecing. Dirrell should have won that fight to most people, and Froch should take a fight other than Ward to continue maturing. 168 has some good names, but not very many. If Dirrell impresses in his next fight, it would make sense for both the men and the division as a whole.

    Personally, I believe Ward simply has Froch's number. He has all the tools to take away Froch's biggest assets. The rematch would go down a similar path.

    Froch-Kessler would be great to see.

    Ward beat Froch with a broken hand the first time. I want Froch to continue his win streak. That means staying away from S.O.G.
