    :D

    When it was sat on my chest it was close. :lol:

    I think in the rematch I'll do a lot better. [ Can't be much worst Carl, I mean the dude is feather fisted... It's not like he could Knock you out. ]

    We're very close to securing a deal with Lucian Bute the IBF World Champion.

    I really don't wanna fight with nobodies or worm out fights.
    Ringside host: He is unbeaten in 30. He was a fabulous amateur, I think he won 235 of 250 for Romania. He's popular in his new home of Canada, What are his weaknesses ?!
    Froch: I'll be honest Johns[ you would have sounded so much smarter if you weren't :lol:] I don't, I don't rate him, he's a good fighter he's World Champion, he's unbeaten [make up your mind Carl] but is the fighters he fought, he fought Andrade he fought Magee[yeah Bika, Johnson, Berrio]...

    If Bute comes to England I don't think he will come to Nottingham we're gonna push for the obvious.[funny thing I heard rumors of Manchester]

    I'll take this fight anywhere I can get it.

    Froch was somewhat outclassed,, especially considering Ward was operating with a hand he broke before the fight. I never had the sense that Ward was letting him back in the fight, although the cards were a hair closer than they should have been.

    It wasn't close. Though nice to see Froch trying to recover from the loss.

    But now Froch is shot, he got old and coming from a lost. Bute KOing him in the 9th round in Froch backyard won't mean anything.

    :roll: it was like 118-110, a complete and decisive victory for Ward. He's clearly a whole level above Froch

    i cant stand ward..i find he has a very cheap style of fighting...that said....froch looked like a brittish punching bag that night...

    kinda reminded me of kimbo slice...he was a raging bull fighting in the streets...he was a real head hunter...then when he steps in the ring he is too passive and less confident...

    that said i believe if froch was not intimidated by his surroundings, he would have been in this fight and imo would have beaten ward...

    i also think that froch will have a much harder time against bute...im calling a 10 round tko, ref or doc stoppage...i dont think bute will straight up ko him, but i think in the mid-late rounds but will out class him and give him a whirlwind of combos and froch will not be able to intelligently protect himself, leading to fight stoppage...

    Professionals don't get intimidated. Froch isn't an elite fighter, Ward is.. that's basically the bottom line.

    The judges had it fight wrong, it wasn't very close at all. I'm starting to wonder if promotion companies have deals to make fights look close even if they aren't just so that their fighter can remain marketable. Froch isn't an idiot, he knows the manner in which he lost. He's just playing the cards he's given, no shame in that.

    Look, if saying this stuff helps him recover mentally, meaning he'll be the same come to fight iron chinned warrior he has been before, then you should be glad.

    Froch is a rare breed in this sports modern times, appreciate him.
