Ward did not put a clinic on against Froch at all. Just rewatched

    Slagging off this score card is stupid, if the even rounds were scored to Ward it'll be 8-4 Ward which is an okay reflection on the fight,

    Thread title is correct. People on ESB are a bit delusional. two judges gave Froch 5 rounds, that's a fact. The third gave Froch only 2.

    on average 4 rounds to Froch n 8 to Ward, which is how I scored it.

    What's more important than the ultimate scorecard is that I saw enough (coupled with Froch's last two performances) to have me genuinely interested in a rematch.

    He landed all the effective shots while froch jsut looked like a plodder.

    After that victory and before that loss he's looked amazing so yes he shut Froch down pretty horribly.

    Ward beat Froch fair & square, but without seeing the fight with no commentators, i think Bailey might have a point, i thought Froch did enough to win some rounds and finished strong. But i still don't want too see a rematch. It's only fair if Ward comes to Denmark and shuts his critics up

    Ward beat Kessler and Froch better than Calzaghe did. He also beat Dawson more convincingly.

    all bailey does (repeatedly) is take a british fighter and twist/shape perspective to what bailey wants to see, and the core reason is always to build up calzaghe, in a vain attempt to get him the international recognition he never achieved

    Not quite a new low for Failey,but that bar is set very, very low.

    When you worship the slap master, not much is beneath you.

    It was a fair fight but Ward won, he looked more in control even though there were several close rounds which I could see some giving a few to Froch. I thought Froch won around 4 rounds with some swing rounds that I gave to Ward, but probably gave them to him as he is one of my favourite fighters.
    Ward, however the haters want to put it, won the Super 6 and is a fantastic businessman who has made his career and advantages work for him whether its fighting at home or draining his opponent, whatever it is, its a winning combination
