    Froch can never be counted out of course he has a chance!!

    I believe we will see a side of Ward that we have never seen before in this fight. Froch will not be roughhoused, and will probably frustrate Ward with his unorthodox "how the **** is he hitting me with those wild punches" style.

    Of course he stands a chance.....a good one. Ward is the fav and rightfully so, but anyone sleeping on Froch in this one hasn't been paying attention.

    Froch is as good as any, and better than most.

    I dont give Froch much of a chance..
    His limited defense and answers when opponents close in, is going to be his doom..
    He wont be able to "retreat" his way out of Wards attacks (which he useually does when anyone gets inside his comfort zone) without getting hit..
    Johnson was at some points able to land shots at will, imagine what Wards fast and accurate punches would do..
    Also Ward has far more dimensions and can adjust from round to round...
    Ward just brings too much to the table for Froch IMO...
    But in the end of the day, Wards speed is going to serve him well.. The only guy Ward has fought in his title fights, who are slower than Froch is Abraham..

    Forch has a good chin and good power with a longer jab, he's still dangerous

    Froch's chances are underrated. They'll both be dealing with something they haven't dealt with before.

    Froch could just walk through hes shots and push the fight. Rough him up, get physical.
    Froch is sloppy and would get TKO´d if Andre had the same power as he does.

    First of all, Ward is too smart for that.. He would slip his first punch, then hold (and then probably use rough house tacs)..
    But i doubt Froch would be able to do this because of Wards superior foot and hand speed, Froch would find himself missing and countered.. Combined with Wards holding and rough house tactics, this would make a long night for Froch..

    Froch being 10 times the man Ward is just might trump Wards advantage in skill. The fact that Ward has feather fists and that Froch has a iron chin also plays into Froch's favour. I think Ward will shoeshine his way to victory in a fairly close fight but I could see Froch walking through him and hurting him, Ward has after all fought no one.

    Of course he has a chance he's a great fighter IMO. Froch is always being underrated here and he's always proving people wrong.
