By the sounds of things, Froch's post fight interview will be even sweeter than I thought. It's cold. Rub your hands --> :crafty: I know I am this summers day.
No- he's good technician who knows how to foul. He out-technicals his opponent, the he sticks in subtle head,arm or nut, ties you up, works out of it,washes rinses repeats until you are ready to go. And the ref has let him.
he has a very good sneaky right hand, just no power on it. And that's his main weakness imo, just no power at all
As badly as things have gone for Froch, there is the slim chance that Ward walks into something, he just did there. No need for this kamikaze attacks for Ward.
Froch won that round. I think Ward is a little winded and he's having trouble with his sight out of the lead eye (left) which is why he switched to southpaw. I think he'll do more of that and try to stay close to Ward.
Ward is a really really good fighter. He's too cerebral tough, and that makes him fairly boring to watch
My advice to Froch, Jimmy, would be to hit behind the head in the clinches. He's getting fouled anyways so he might as well force Ward to hold in there rather than risk getting rabbited. He's fucked on the cards so a DQ makes no odds.
First time for a "big" fight that I have only seen "one line" of names in the "viewing this thread" bar. :dunno:
Froch said he would fight fire with fire anyway, he said he was expecting this,.. therefore,.. what must be happening is,.. he's too shocked, beat-up and bewildered to retaliate.. :crafty: no excuses.
Another lead right shoulder from Ward. :nono: Froch is a truck. He truly is afraid of no task. He got in a decent right hand there. Ward leans in with the nut. Unpunished. Wards mouth is open. Ward might be a bit gassed. Too late to matter.
sad that dirrell had to pull out of the tournamnet, Might be the only one who had the speed nd power to catch and hurt ward
I think Ward is dead tired...looking to run out the clock. Froch wins this round. Ward's backing up hands down and bouncing off the ropes and squaring up...giving Froch a punchers chance. Ward only needs to make it out of the last round to win. Froch vs Taylor II?????
Once, heat of the moment, un premeditated :nono: Oscar did that vs Vargas it wasn't like he planned it.
He's got one round, not enough, Wards cute enough to see it out. This is why I picked Froch TKO12, but he's run out of time I feel/
Wards given away the last two rounds. Not enough to make it count. Is that that picker Denzel in the crowd???
