    His fighting mentality aside, I don't rate Froch that highly. But if he managed to beat Ward, I'll be highly impressed. I'll start respecting his skills.

    I'm already impressed with Froch and fully respect his skills, he has been proving everyone wrong so far in this tournament. If he beats Ward I'll be beyond impressed.

    Greetings Talivar.
    I would have to give Froch even more credit than I already give him.
    Froch is a true road warrior. Many fighters have to travel to the champs back yard to challenge the champ, that is normal and shouldnt be credited. G Johnson is called the road warrior, but when has he travelled where he has everything to lose and nothing to gain? Never to my knowledge. Yet Froch has been champ and defended away where he has everything to lose and nothing to gain, very few champs can defend their belt away, and Froch has done that many times now.
    Think Froch beat Taylor away, fought Kessler away, beat Abraham away on a neutral site, beat Johnson away and will next be fighting away again to Ward who has never tested himself that way.
    There are not many champs who in 6 world title fights have been away from home/where they are based 4 of those times, soon to be 5 times in 7 world title fights.

    Froch has really surprised me. I never thought he'd be this effective at world level but he's made me a believer.

    I already have him in my P4P top 10 and, although it would be an upset if he beat Ward, I wouldn't be that surprised.

    He proved me wrong thats for sure. I used to hate on teh guy because he talked too much and i didnt think he had the skills to back it up. I figured he and Taylor would be the first 2 eliminated.
    Now that i see he has skills heart and is exciting i can handle the trash talk.
    Similar to Brandon Rios.

    And WHEN Froch beats Ward I will point and laugh at Ward......

    I hope Froch wins because his style is far more entertaining and true to boxing. Ward is boring, stay-at-home and negative.

    But I do think Ward will win in a messy fight.

    I think Ward will be more worried about what Froch brings than the other way round
