    Ward will do anything to win. His fans dont want to see it, but that is the way it is.

    How can you not root for the iron chinned road warrior?
    Froch represents almost everything that a fan wants, he travels around the world, he comes to fight, he is tough, he is not afraid of going into the trenches, he refuses to loss and he is also entertaining outside the ring..
    But he is still going to loss though..

    Neither, too bad they both can't lose.

    that was a headbutt. granted, kessler had his head low and it wasn't obscenely blatant like victor against floyd. nevertheless, I guarantee you that in THE HISTORY OF PUGILISM, at least one fighter has used intentional headbutts as a means toward victory, not saying that's what ward does.

    I would have remained neutral if Ward fought outside of the US at least once in this tournament but as a fan of the idea of the super 6, I think it sucks that he didn;t have to have at least 1 away fight. And don't give me any of this state bs, the USA is the USA whether its california or New York. only BS excuse wannabe's come up with that different state BS.

    why should Oakland and New Jersey be the same??

    NJ is full of racist poles and guidos, unlikely that Ward will enjoy the same support

    It's amazing how many "Recall Quan" posters you see all over the city.

    I'm waiting for some tweeked out trucker to say "FCK YOU" and run those occupy dregs down!!

    Some inside info: I know Froch has been sparring with Peter Quillin in NYC and Quillin's style was too slick and fast for Froch to handle. Just think what Ward will do and you bet, throw in some Raider tactics and Froch walks away with a loss and a "bloody" beat up face :!: :bbb:yep

    Maybe Ward will be nice and send him some Everret and Jones BBQ sauce as a consulation prize :good

    If an American says that all of Europe is the same, we get blasted, yet Euros make this ignorant comment all the time. Perhaps the maps aren't to scale on that side of the pond.

    Whilst i'm not ignorant enough to suggest that every state in America is the same,it does have the same Government,Currency,and Language.
    Now some European countries share the same Currency (Euro) but thats where the similarities end.
