    I am yet to read ONE single post from you that gives Andre Ward even a tad bit of credit. Are the grapes REALLY that sour in your area? You've even gone so far as to say Ward and his style are bad for boxing and how green he is. ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME? The truth is, Ward is the epitome of the sweet science, has a boxing IQ that is off the charts, utilizes extraordinary speed and footwork, ring generalship, fights both left and right handed exceptionally, cat like reflexes, the ability to adjust to all fighters, freely finds ways to completely confuse them, and the ability to fight in a way that makes his 12th round look no different from his 1st round, and too many people here are just simply too ignorant and biased to even grasp anything about it. Many are similar to most of the hideously terrible MMA fight fans, with those dumbass Affliction and Tapout shirts and the "Dude I better get my $44.99 worth of BLOOD, otherwise I'm fixin' to throw my Pabst at that there T.V. Coulda done went to the Nascar race instead I reckon, sunuma *****")attitude. And don't use that bull****, lame, little girl type of excuse that Ward fought dirty. What I saw were phantom headbutts and non-phantom punches on Kessler's face. Ward could well have smacked Calzaghe around. I don't buy for a second that kessler wasn't beaten unlike any man who has ever beaten him before (or better yet, been so generously issued with such a massive beatdown), confused, outclassed, beaten to the punch, humiliated, embarrassed and just simply turned him into a ballet dancing whiner by Mr. 2004 Gold Medal Olympian Andre Ward. The version of Kessler that fought Ward will thoroughly thrash and simply KO Froch's sloppy, slow, wide punch throwing, uncoordiated ASS!

    Froch can beat Kessler but not by standing in front of him and trade. We have all seen the blueprint needed to beat Kessler. I believe Froch can actually follow strategies similar to Calzaghe's and Ward's. Froch haters then say: "No! Froch is too slow." If that was the case how could Froch stay with Dirrell in basically all rounds? After all Dirrell is an excellent runner. As long as the ref allows a lot of holding and dirty fighting Kessler is in trouble. Kessler's two loses came in fights where the opponents relied on holding as a part of the tactics. Froch can do the same thing. It won't be pretty but it'll work. Question is: Is Froch's ego too big to stay with a clearly winning strategy leading him into a dog fight he'll most likely loose due to Kessler's usually accurate power punches?

    Yeah thanks for the correction cockboy. Those kinds of things happen when you pay attention to more than one or two fighters. However smart I may or may not be, I'll always feel like a genius with guys like you following me around with a chip on their shoulder predicting the exact opposite of what's going to happen in fights, then name calling whoever disagrees. I think you're the only one who couldn't figure out what I meant by the context of the post alone. Thanks anyway.

    To me this is the best matchup the super 6 has to offer. 2 straight ahead guys who throw jabs and crosses. Very upright fighters. They both can set high out puts and have big punches and good chins. Froch has the heart and power to take this. Kessler has the punch and experience to take this fight. Kessler just lost but he may not be doen yet. No longer the heavy fave he will now bounce back with all the pressure off him will make a great fight. I think he gets redemption. Though Froch has a great chance. Like I said this can turn into a war of similar styles.
