    I gave 3 rounds to Froch scoring it 117 - 111 in Ward's favour. I honestly think if the Froch of Bute fight fought Ward he could beat him. Especially over in the UK with home support. If Froch beats Kessler then its the only logical fight out there for both Ward and Froch in the Super Middleweight division.

    How many rounds did you give Froch in the first fight and can Froch realistically beat Ward?

    More importantly, will it be on regular Sky or PPV?

    I seem to remember only one or two at the end, and that was more because Ward got a big negative than Froch was doing much better. There is really very little Froch could do better, IMO.

    Ward is faster, has a more compact style, is superior on the inside and the outside, punches more precisely and is more rounded overall. He's just as strong physically too, I think.

    Short of Froch landing something huge and Ward being unable to recover, I don't see many options for Carl to take this one.

    Just a couple I think. Ward started thinking of the finishing line and partially handed the initiative to Froch but it was far too late. Think Ward wins a rematch just as easily.

    I had it 118-110, Ward schooled Froch with one hand. In a rematch Froch would lose every round, Ward is far too good.

    Why do you think that? I'm genuinely curious.

    Gave him 1, one of the rounds Froch actually outboxed him
    People keep saying if he fought like the Bute fight, if he fights like he fought Bute it will get destroyed, you can't hit them combos on Ward

    3 rounds for Froch from memory, and no I don't think in a rematch Froch could beat him

    3 for me too. 1 in the competitive state of the fight; 2 at the end during Ward's resting phase.
