Wards trainer: "Froch is dirty"

Froch is a tough but clean fighter. Look at him in the Kessler fight... a tough fight with give and take, but very clean like any other Kessler fight.

Ward.... VERY dirty.

 

Froch is far from clean. didnt you watch the dirrell fight. yeeesh.

 

yeah Froch isnt dirty lol

Wards mma elbow on Sakio Bika is worse than anything I've seen from anyone in the SMW division.

 

I could see the relevance in this if not for the fact that Dirrell was fighting against the rules all night long. Its not simply that Froch was dirty there, it was a dirty fight.

Dirrell was running and when he wasn't running, he was greco roman wrestling. When Dirrell lost the point for holding, he also hit on the break, just like Froch did.

 

They happen in a lot of fights with a lot of fighters but no one ever screams about it because they aren't the target of haters.

 

you don't watch a lot of Floyd mayweather fights do you?

 

Of course they do. Ward gets critique and he deserves it. Other fighters gets the same treatment when they fight dirty (See Bradley, Hopkins, Huck etc.)

 

Floyd pushes off with the elbow, Ward swung his elbow like a punch trying to cut Bika. The commentators mentioned it as well.

 

I think they are trying to get Froch off his gameplan and make Froch fight differently.
We know that Ward struggled against Bika with his rough fighting and I think are worried Froch may do something similar, so think they are saying this now to get Froch to subconciously not hit Ward if Ward is holding etc.
Very rich to read that Wards trainer is calling someone a dirty fighter when Ward headbutts, holds alot and uses the elbow.

This makes me think they are worried about what Froch said about how he will butt back

 

Yeah dummy you fail to note that Dirrell is illegally hanging on to Froch and ducking below the belt line

 

Froch is a clean fighter who is fighting dirty when he have to.If he is hit in the balls he will hit back,if he is headbutted he will butt back.But he doesn't do this if the other guy is fighting clean.Ward should have a glove on his head tho,he is as dirty as a pig in mud hole.

 

Those saying Froch's tactics were to due to Dirrell's holding and bending too low, please do explain why there are moments in the video where Dirrell is doing neither yet Froch still decides to hold his head down and rabbit punch him? Those are nothing more than cheap shots from a desperate fighter.

Honestly, I don't really care about a tap to the back of the head to send a message but Froch went beyond that multiple times. I'm not one to normally get uptight over fouling, it's a fight and it happens, but rather I'm just trying to add some balance to Ward always being branded as the dirty one.
