Froch is too good for Johnson and Ward is too good for Abrahams but to doubt their intangiables would be unwise. If Froch is off, Johnson will close the distance, fight him in the pocket, make it ugly and take the win over an off the point Froch. Similarly with Arthur, if you get lazy for a second, he'll clean your clock. Ward as of late doesn't move as much. He might be getting too confident. Even with all his durability, Froch didn't fight Arthur stupid. So Froch and Ward are the favourties but Abrahams and Johnson are live underdogs.
Beeston, you hit the nail in the head withthe comment about his chin and his ego. I think he seems to have broken these mental barriers. He can go into the fight with no fears at all. Certainly though without doubt both respective opponents are live and present their own problems, bit should ward and froch box as they can, thru will box each other in the final
I agree and ultimately I don't think Ward has a big enough feather duster to hurt Frochy. Where as I am Sure Froch can bang out Ward!!!
funny you say that, i do as well, even though my head says ward 9.978 times out of ten my heart smells a major upset
Andre Ward will prevail & will be the winner of the whole tournament! I back Ward from the start of the tournament when he was the outsider. If he wins, I'll make a nice profit! I think Ward is improving! He may not even be at his peak yet.
You may well be right about ward not having peaked yet, but I think froch has learnt a lot more in his last 3 fights compared to ward, and I think froch might be as close to peaking as possible. Ward might be meeting Froch if it happens, at the wrong time
There is virtually zero chance of Froch stopping Johnson. I think you are overstating Froch's capabilities.
Maybe I am but one day father time will catch up with Glen. I just think Froch will be that little bit too good for him, just my opinion.
I know what you mean I think wards getting a bit too cocky and isnt going to be wary enough of abrahams power and learn the hard way. froch vs ward if it happens will be interesting to see how far frochs come in his last few fights at world level and how much of ward is hype. Froch by stoppage when Ward takes the early rounds and gets reckless
Yep...i hope Froch wins....but Warde is good...especially with them muay thai elbows and the billy goat headbutss....im going with Warde by headbutt KO.
Someone said AA may take a tune up prior to Ward bout. Not sure how true or likely that is i'm not sure. I like AA he's come out and said Lebedev beat Huck (could of chatted **** easily)...not sure he's endearing himself to much to his team or promoters. I hope he can make a fight of it...it be sad to see a good champion and warrior just fall apart within space of 18 months.
