LOL, Froch is NOT impressive. In fact, Green would have performed much better with Froch and possibly scored a KO to enter the SS tournament in style. The SS managers and match makers knew what they were doing by making Green fight Ward in his 1st fight. Green enters SS with a loss, but had his 1st match been with Froch, he'd be entering with a WIN.

And lost the fight, if not for a "hometown decision" he would have lost that fight too. Dirrell busted his ass, IMO.
It was a close fight whichever way you scored it but I dont think you could call it a home town decision when both Boxing News and The Ring magazine made Froch a close winner
froch sucks. His best punches in the dirrell fight came during clinches and his accuracy was terrible. Froch will get absolutely housed against ward if he can even make it to the semis.
****.. I wouldn't be suprised to See Froched against the ropes getting raped.. it seems like Wards attack always changes fighters approach.. Boxing Ward is a no go For Froch.. Even the inside game is in play after Froch slows down from a fast Boxing attack of Ward.. did anybody see Froch slow down against Kessler.. Ward would take him to the ropes in the late rounds and drown him.. He might be reduced to holding on and not punching like Green..
How would Froch deal with it? He'd whine to the ref, then he'd lose, then he'd whine in the post-fight interview, then he'd whine to the Brit press, then he'd retire and whine some more.
Froch would do much better than Green, who after round 2 was basically a heavy bag with eyebrows. But he'd still get schooled badly. Ward is a much better boxer than Froch.
