    Froch is going to crumble in that fight. Ward by late KO or wide UD.

    he did. But sincerely, I can't see him outboxing Froch. He can mix it up, sure he can, but I think ppls here delude when they say Ward will cruse his way to an easy UD. He might win, but this is NOT an easy fight for him.

    Ward's biggest advantage over Froch has to be footwork. With that said, Ward will be in and out faster than Froch can react, and I'm quite sure he'll have something to answer that flickering jab of Froch's. The more Ward relies on his footwork, the less options there will be for Froch.

    Froch was able to adjust to his physical disadvantages against Abraham because he smokes Abraham in boxing IQ. Froch will not be able to make the necessary mental adjustments needed to level out the playing field with Ward, because, though Froch's boxing IQ is high, Ward's boxing IQ is the highest in the game right now. Any adjustment Froch makes, Ward is capable of answering. Mix in Ward's athleticism, stamina, etc. and you're left with Froch facing a tall order.

    Froch will not be able to set anything up. After he realizes this, trying to hurt Ward with one shot will only get him in deeper. He's pretty much screwed, and he still hasn't beaten Glenn Johnson yet.

    when was the last time Ward KOed someone? And now he is fighting elite fighters with elite chins. He didn't KO Green, didn't hurt Bika. Get the **** out of here.

    My lord some people here actually comparing Ward-Froch to Froch-Dirrell?

    Dirrell is more athletic than Ward. He's faster and avoids contact at all costs. Ward engages more, fights on the inside and tries to rough his opponent up a bit.

    Dirrell is Froch's nightmare opponent because he refuses to stand still. Ward is not like that.

    I also do not think Ward has the one punch power to keep Froch off. It's an interesting clash of styles, and I think it would be exciting. Based on what I have seen, I'd go for a Ward UD, competitive though.

    This might sound cold but easy work for Ward. I like Froch but no way in hell does he beat Ward.

    If Froch makes it to the final I think he'll win it by late stoppage

    Since Froch - Pascal ive didnt have any trust in Froches skills... And i still lack it.. But every prediction i make with Froch, except Kessler - Froch, I predict wrong.. Froch is a fighter!

    But.. Ward havent lost yet.. Froch have... Its difficult imagin Ward loosing a fight.. So... I cant imagin it, therefor Ward must win.. I think Ward wont loose a fight in a loong time.. I dont hope that Kessler trys a remach..

    To beat Froch you have to have sufficient power to hurt him. I doubt Ward has enough power. Froch is Ward's worst nightmare

    Froch, isn't good enough against slick fighters in my opinion. I think he'll brush Johnson aside. But someone as quick, and elusive as Ward will give Froch fits....
