    Is he high from the amount of performance enhancing drugs that Andre Ward is on?

    Ward never had any power before, now all of a sudden he stops Dawson and "would have" knocked out Carl "Iron Chinned" Froch!

    Thoughts on this?

    No way. Ward is my favorite fighter, has been for years since I saw him fight live in the amatuers a number of times.

    BUT Froch is not only incredibly durable, he's leagues more determined than Bad Chad, he has practically unlimited stamina, and he's underrated defensively.

    He did have a broken hand, and was hitting Froch very easily.

    Even with the broken hand, Froch respected his power.

    Doesn't matter though. He beats Froch 10 times out of 10.

    I doubt he would have stopped Froch given his durability, but it's not impossible; he stunned him multiple times with shots he didn't see coming.

    One KO over a weight drained fighter and now we're supposed to believe it's the 2nd coming of Mike Tyson :roll: was his hand broken against Green? and what about Bika? no? how about Miranda? ok then.

    I think he should prove he can knock Carl out, by coming to England and fighting Froch again. For once, Ward needs to come out of his comfort zone and fight somewhere other than the US. There's no doubt they will be able to sell out Nottingham's stadium.

    why would he go to England to fight a guy he already beat? Why go to Nottingham when Carl didnt go to Cali? Carl does not even want to fight Ward he is talking Kessler then retirement

    That'd be a step backwards for ward. He already dominated him

    No, he wouldn't.

    Ward's a very smart Boxer. To beat Froch he has to get up close, against Carl's chest and work on the inside. If he fights at range then he is giving himself a much tougher fight. Froch isn't Dawson, he doesn't allow an opponent to take total control of the distance.

    So Ward has to get close, the way he did when they actually fought. Up close he won't be able to get enough leaverage into his punches to knock Froch out. He could buzz him as Froch may not see some coming, but to actually knock Froch out from close range, is not conceivable to me.
