    Ward basically just said Bernard is trying to step in for a cash out pay day...
    Stepping on Wards toes, Ward wants the Cobra payday.. :hey
    Bernard may be the key to forcing Ward to take the fight.

    Carl is the the money man of this division :deal

    what a shocker
    When was the last time a top us fighter fought in UK?
    The crowds are bigger here the arenas are bigger and the support is huge

    The froch v ward fight has absolutely no chance of happening in the UK
    No chance
    There is more chance of ward fighting bhop

    Who is Ward to question Froch's record overseas? Hypocrite!

    That was the very best boxing can be. I have immense respect for these two gentlemen. I scored it for Froch, 8-4 rounds, 116-112 points, giving Kessler rounds 4, 5, 6, and 11. Froch was dynamic, on top most of the way, and omg what a chin. However, he still got hit a lot, and I have to question if he has improved enough technically that he could beat Ward in a rematch. I don't think he showed that tonight. But there is no shame in that, Froch is definitely the people's champion, and clearly no worse than 2nd best at 168. Bravo to Froch and Kessler!!!

    On neutral ground...115-113. 116-112 Froch is fair too.
    Great fight. Looked a great crowd. Great sportsmen.

    If you want to beat froch you need to get on the inside of his jab, scoring points at close range. Kessler doesn't work that way. I truly believe we saw kessler at his best, but the granite chin and the long reach of froch doesn't suit his style, because he doesn't like to work on the inside. Ward on the other hand, would probably win by a huge margin again.

    The uk is one of the better places to come for foreign fighters as far as getting a fair deal is concerned
