    Guybino's posts I notice are uniformly content-free. The litmus test for this is anyone who uses the expression "Son of Ottke" or the asinine and juvenile "Joakland".

    Way to to go Guybino, you're a complete douchebag!

    It'll be very scrappy, Ward will potshot his way to a boring UD.

    He can't do this against Froch. There is too much distance to cover and Froch has too good of a jab.

    Call me a troll, I dont really care, tbh if I was going to troll I'd say alot more. Funny how if you say something against a beloved hyped American athelete you get dismissed as a 'troll' or '****ing Brit' or '*******' or the old 'you know **** about boxing'.

    Im going back to my cave now, Ill come back when Froch wins S6.

    Kessler fights nothing like Froch. He is a typical Euro styled fighter. Froch has a different style and also has a significant reach advantage.

    How do you think Ward will attack then -- i.e. if he can't get past the jab?

    I definitely don't see it as a mis-match. Ward will be the favourite but Froch has earned the right to be taken seriously.

    Froch's style is so unorthodox/awkward that people seemingly can't stop overlooking him. His jab is excellent and his sneaky right-hand and deceptively solid all-round game should give Ward plenty of problems.

    I agree! He was a beast against Ward!! I give a lot of credit to Ward for beating this version of Bika.

    Froch has been given zero chance of winning in EVERY fight since Pascal,yet he continues to dumbfound and obviously irritate his critics by winning,and progressing in the super 6.Comments such as.......

    "You can only go so far with zero defence,zero skill, and a good chin"

    "Taylor dropped him,he's a KO waiting to happen"

    "He cannot box,he's slow and ponderous,he has no power"

    "Abraham will KO him within 4 rounds"

    ETC ETC.

    Everytime they are proven wrong they simply call him "lucky" LMFAO

    On paper it is, but a guy like Froch can't be judged by paper. He's better than he appears to be. You may look at him & say yeah he's slow, unathletic, etc but he finds a way to win or make it close. I think it may take Ward to figure out his awkwardness, but he should win this fight comfortably. A guy like Froch isnt gonna beat a Ward

    Unfortunately this is how I see it going as well. I'd love to see Carl pull of the upset, but i think its gonna be a landslide UD for Ward. I can't stand the son of god lol...
