    Omg ward would distroy bute, wtf are you guys talking about? Ward is not only a better all around fighter then froch he is a better offensive fighter. If he couldn't handle froch how in the hell is he 1) going to land on ward 2) stop ward from hitting him. Fighting froch first may have saved his career because against ward he would have taken a prolonged beatting over 9, 10 rounds before he was stopped.

    Styles only make fights when two fighters are close. Bute is not close to ward. Plus nothing in wards career would suggest that butes' style would cause him trouble.

    Please. Froch i thought lost to dirrell in nottingham. Froch was ready, focused vs Ward. Stop with the bs excuses and give Ward credit in which he beat a prepare Froch.

    Froch doesn't deserve a home match against Ward.. last time I checked Ward beat Froch already.. Losers don't get home dates.. if so Where dey do that at?

    Now Froch vs Dirrell in the rematch.. Britian all day...

    Maybe Froch Wasent 100% neither was Ward.. Hurt his hand before the fight... Ward Still Broke half his hand and foot off in Froch's Ass..Period.. if the fight again Froch being over agressive is only going to see him get Tee off on again...:verysad

    So how do you think froch would pull it off? What part of that fight makes you think that he could win 5 or 6 more rounds? Froch was dominated in that fight. Fighting in his actaul backyard wouldn't change that.

    Easy there, chick. Ward was the better man that night, no matter the excuse. But I commented to say that I believe Froch would have a much better chance, this time around, if he were based in Nottingham - Probably a Froch 40% - Ward 60% chance of success.

    Hypothetical... A hypothetical suggestion.

    The rest, unfortunately, I cannot comprehend what you are trying to say.

    You think froch would still ko bute in canada in the first fight if it wasnt in nottingham? I guess that means bute wasnt 100 percent cause he fought on the road?
     
  8. Ward is the best boxer of this era. Better than hype Roy and Flo. HE is a hopkins with teeth who can fight in the center of the ring throwing combinations

    There is no version of Dirrell that beats this Froch. None. Dirrell would prance around like a 8 year old on a talent show, whose mother really wants her to be ballerina, before The Cobra - using his greater experience and ring IQ - catches up with him and shatters Dirrell's disgraceful Glass Jaw :deal

    A hypothetical question that was met with an absurd amount of didactic rhetoric.:patsch

    Personally, i agree with your 60/40 chance in Ward's favour.:good

    I do, actually, just not as one-sided. Maybe a KO in the later rounds by Froch, or even UD.

    In plain English there is no ****ing way Froch beats Ward... Stylisticly Ward is all wrong for Froch..

    100% Ward vs 100% Froch still ends up being a Boxing lesson given by Ward...




    its sad that this FROCH KO of Bute has given some Froch fans Courage.. But lets get this strait.. this victory today don't mean **** when it comes to fighting Andre Ward....

    Its a nice confidence builder for Froch.. but even he knows this new gained confidence can and will go down the drain if he come Andre Wards way again... The End...:hi:

    P.S this is not me being a fan boy its just the truth.. if you believe that 60/40 chance in Wards Favor.. thats nice.. but 40 is way to much for the likes of Froch in that fight... and thats honest..

    Now thats the End..:good

    I agree, I'd favour Ward v anybody at SMW or LHW but I think Bute stylistically gives Ward more problems than Kessler or Froch who beat Bute H2H.

    That's my point. Froch didn't give him the opening.

    im not really a froch fan, but i do have respect for him. although, i find it hard to take many of your points seriously, when you have ward as your avatar. im happy to go out on a limb and say im able to be more objective on this subject, than you.

    the loss to ward spurred froch on, as you can see here. it gave him an almost new lease of life. i still think ward would win the fight, but it is a fight that i, and many others, would like to see. anyone who is quick enough to dissmiss froch, especially in the manner you have, reminds me of all those bute fans on here.

    be a fan, be confident, but dont spout off in such a derogatory way, thats all im saying. respect where respect is due. ward payed respect to froch after their fight.:good
