    Froch is not a big SMW. He won't be bigger than Ward on fight night.

    I only said "probably". Definitely tho, Froch enjoys the longer reach.

    At 6"2" with a 75" reach, i say he is a pretty big SMW..

    Ward is too quick for Froch. The man seems slower every time I watch him fight.

    Its the finalk of the super six i doubt he'd be stupid enough to be taking Froch lightly. Plus you don't hear him calling out other fighters or looking beyond his opponent unlike some.

    If Froch wins it won't be because he was underestimated.

    froch wont win, ward is a bit too fast and tricky for him, i think it will be pretty close at times and if froch was fighting in nottingham he could make it so scrappy that he could take it in front of home judges but hes not, hope there isnt more controversy, the sport doesnt need any more at the moment but wouldnt be suprised if something crops up

    I think Ward will get the UD something around 9-3 or 8-4..

    What's getting overlooked in here IMO is that Ward is very good at spoiling his opponents strength... IMO he will try to avoid the jabfest (Froch has a solid jab and long arms).

    Go in quickly set some punches, roughhousing, go out of range. Froch will definately land but it will be only enough to win some rounds and not enough to stun Ward or bring him away from his gameplan.

    Additionally I think that there will be some controversy.. I see Judges and Ref lettiing Ward get away with some of his signature intentional headbutts while warning or deducting points for holding or something like that.

    I predict Ward to be the better all around fighter who will profitate additionally from biased officiating

    Ward beat Kessler mentally.
    Kessler was shocked by how fast and clever Ward was,then when the headbutts started and Kessler realised Ward was not going to get punished,the anger and frustration caused him to crumble mentally.
    Ask yourself this question,would a prime,fully fit Kessler fighting in Denmark lose to Ward,or do you believe any version of Kessler would always lose to Ward ?

    Ward would easily be DQ'ed anywhere but jOakland.

    Without being allowed to foul we'd have a completely different ballgame. If Kessler then was prime, injuryfree and in shape I'd favour him for sure. Wheter Kessler has enough left in the tank to beat Ward today even if the rematch was in Denmark is another matter. One thing is sure though: It will take a very very good fighter to beat Ward.

    lol, im thinking that the blood will follow the brow line and away from his eye, goofball... good try on making alot out of nothing... as usual

    its not gonna stop him from phoneboothing Froch if/when he gets the chance. Froch may stay away from this like Abraham wisely did. If you watch Ward closer, you see he knows to turn his head to the side if he anticipates a head collision...
