    I'm sure Froch is more well known, but Ward, just by mentioning his name, undeniably has his roots there. Ireland has literally been in a drought for such a long time I know as ardent fight fans they are dying to have a boxing great represent them. It's really up to Ward, but I think just like Mexican-American fighters fight in America and Mexico Ward should connect with his Irish side. He's maybe lacking in charisma, but he's a humble, very respectable fighter especially for his age. He should try it. Ali fought in Africa and Manila some of his best fights were outside America.

    He could even promote himself as "Irish" Andre Ward for the bout. That would be great. :lol:

    it would be as sad as Jeff Lacy telling everyone about his English roots and wearing an England shirt
