I am sure Andre Ward has already submitted his list of appropriate venues, refs and judges to SHOWTIME network. Ward's judges probably just finished filling out their scorecards.
"It's not ideal," admitted Froch to the Nottingham Post. "I should be fighting in Nottingham, but what can I do? The venue [in Atlantic City] isn't great - it holds about 2,800, when I could be fighting in front of a full house in Nottingham. Still, it looks as though the final will be at Madison Square Garden, which would be awesome." Found this quote ..Makes sense Isn't Showtime offices in NY ? Froch just trained in NY ?? Fingers crossed for that !!
It will be in Ward's front room and the ref will be his brother and the 3 judges will all be old school friends. I just hope Carl's sparring partners add low blows, elbows and headbutts into the sparring because he's going to have to get used to that **** somehow. Ward will cheat his way to a victory in this one i'm affraid. Lynchburg
SOB Ward cheats! He is spoiled. Ward beat Kessler by illegal head butt, Ward's personal referee said that headbutts are legal for him. Ward wants all the judges to be his personal judges. This has been SOB Ward's personal tournament from the beginning. Ward is cheating. Froch will have to knock Ward out to get a draw! Vegas would still be in Ward's territory. All the others have had to travel thousands of miles while Ward stays home, unfair.
MSG why not AC Im sure NJ and NY are in the middle of Cali and the UK a fair compromise id love another big fight in the garden still in the states so wards ppl can see close enough to the uk fro frochs ppl to make the journey
Ask Bernard Hopkins. That's the other Canadian fighter he's been calling out. I'm sure he tell you all about him.
Im expecting Ward to pull out of the competition if it is not within 15 miles from his house on a satnav.
It will likely be in San Francisco, which is fair as Ward will have to ride his bicycle over the bridge.
Doesnt matter where it is. You can either fight or you cant. The venue is a very small consideration. Ward will win so one sided it isnt going to matter where the fight is. Ward is the man, Froch is a wonderful, tough fighter. But, he is no where as skilled as the greatest super middleweight, soon to be ever!
man its funny how many people are bitching an moaning.. Its gonna be in Vegas and thats not to Far from the Bay Area.. its like a 9 or 10 hour drive.. MSG would be nice but I don't think it does well with expected crowd.. Vegas is where all the big fights are.. And where Stars are made.... Vegas...!
