Froch is a winner, that's why. He isn't going to go into a fight against any new opponent being closed to opportunities and possibilities, accepting failure before rolling the dice. If a fighter doesn't see how they can find a way to outbox their opponent, they lack faith in themselves. All men need this faith. Froch admitted though after Ward's schooling of him, that he'll only win by knockout if they fight again.
I picked up a British boxing mag in october where Froch gave a good summary of why he felt Fury would beat Wlad I dont think hes just praising a UK guy I think he means what he says
