    In fairness to AA, he was taking a huge amount of Ward's punches to the gloves
    Although the jab was effective at keeping AA off him, Ward wasn't scoring a lot of those punches.

    Froch was shooting straight through the middle and actually scoring with the jab.

    Not disputing that, but you dont go into the top 10 because you may become a champion one day.

    He is.
    He said Kessler has the best resume at SMW right now.

    its stronger now than its ever been aside from the mid90s when everyone was in it.

    And as for Froch, he is one of the few SMs who would scare the pants off me if I was in the ring with him for just 1 minute, he can knock the **** out of you. Awesome slugger.

    There is a reason why Joe stayed undefeated I mean look at the division he fought in compared to the division today ..Bute is trying to go the Calzaghe path but once he gets in there with an elite level fighter in their prime he could lose ..But at least he will get the chance and not try to wait ten years ..Like some WBO champ :hey

    Your agenda is stupid.
    You discredit Wards win over Kessler because your a troll with a hard on for a guy you never supported until he became a big deal after fighting Lacy.

    Don't lie about it either you seriously had no reservations about his opponents or ******s bogus wbo route that seen him eclipsed by lesser fighters in britain?

    **** off man, the real reason Calzaghes win over Lacy was so special was because he was completly written off by everyone even british pundits and ex fighters.

    The SMW division was HORRIBLE during Calzaghe's bum of the month reign in obscure and worthless fights against overmatched and often handpicked glass jawed brits.
