Who will you be rooting for: Andre Ward or Carl Froch?

I'm really torn here. As an American I always like to root for my fellow American fighter, but Ward just bothers me. I hate the SOG nickname and his lack of personality just kills me.

Then you look at Froch who has fought everyone in the division. One of the toughest streaks of opponents in recent history. The man's a fighter and everyone should respect that. Plus he was really the only one in the super six who had a personality.

That being said I'll be rooting for Froch but I think Ward will squeak a tough UD

 

Froch.

I don't mind Ward, actually. I think he's a good fighter, has a very good attitude but Froch is, well, Froch. Look at his recent record. There's no way that if he wins the Super 6, he'll start fighting lesser calibre fighters. He'll still want to prove he's the man and the list of opponents he'll take on are mouthwatering to any boxing fan. There's no doubt that he'll fight Bute, Kessler and anyone else who is worthy of the fight.

Not only that but you're guaranteed great fights from Froch. That's why he's so good for the sport. He will fight anyone and deliver entertaining fights, no matter who is opponent is. It's a great result for boxing is he wins.

On top of those two reasons, Ward is younger and can bounce back. Froch is already old for the division, has talked about retirement and with his style, probably only has a couple of fights before he starts to decline. A Ward loss could be similar to Kessler losing to Calzaghe. No shame at all and he'll bounce back but could Froch? He'd still get big fights because of the first two reasons I listed but it'll hurt him, that's for sure. Ward won't really be affected by a loss.

I don't dislike Ward or anything but Froch is the better winner for fans.

And I would be confident that whether these posters are from the same state or not its the fact that Ward represents the USA! One of teh Brits is rootinf for Froch too - what a surprise Hence my point! Jeezatsch

 

Fixed.

 

You're one of the worst posters on ESB. Congratulations!

 

Rooting for Ward. I'm also hoping he doesn't billy goat too often or at all.

"And I'd like to thank my wife, because without her I wouldn't be able to do what I do." -Andre Ward TRUTH
Man has Character and is technically sound.

 

The cobra!

But i think ward will do a number on him

 

You idiot. Europe is a continent... Do. You know what that is? Its a. Collection of many countries!

The usa is a country. Mostly with the same culture language currency etc. Europe has different cultures languages and different currencies! Each country is independent.

Ignorant fool

 

You've lost me completely :huh
I'm in total agreement with the fact that Ward will be fighting at home,and i never said every country in Europe use's the Euro,i said some.
Maybe you misread my post ?

 

Thanks for the inside info. Froch is in a world of hurt. Hes going to feel like hes in east or west oakland in the middle of the night. I see a mugging coming.

 

Yes - sorry I thought you meant they all share the same currency.

 

Surprise surprise - Joe McKenzie rooting for the white guy. As if we'd expect anything less from a Klit fanboy like him.

 

Ward.

America!
