    Ward will win because he is better.

    Ward headbutts, has had the ref on his side, has had the judges on his side, has had the home advantage every fight.


    So Britain decided to retaliate with this

    Ward will be mentally broken before he even gets in the ring!

    Yeah it was fair. It's not Team Ward's fault that everyone underrated him prior to the tournament. They felt he was so green, that he would not be a factor regardless of having hometown advantage. It's not his fault that Dirrell pulled out either. If not for that, they would have had 3 common opponents.

    if they give an honest decison when the fight is over then yes, But Honestly this whole tourney IMO was basicly set up to sell and promote Andre Ward Olympic Gold Medalist from the USA

    I have no problem with the finale being in the US (as long it isn't in california) Atlantic city is ok . My point was that Ward was the only fighter who hasn't left the USA for a fight in the tournament.
    He never really had the crowd against him, never had to overcome the time difference.

    None of this will matter after the final. And I think it was fair... Froch is lucky to even be in the final after losing to Kessler and in a lot of people's opinion, Dirrell. So quit bitching and enjoy the final.

    but had the kessler fight been in england......maybe the outcome would have been different, but we'll never know since froch is a globetrotting world champion and ward has a leash that extends no further than oakland

    Froch is an Iron Chinned Warrior.:good

    Andre Fraud and Dirrell are Glass Jawed and Glass Hearted disgraces.
