Ward ready to school Froch on October 29th
August 20th, 2011
By Scott Gilfoid: WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward (24-0, 13 KO’s) carried himself like a seasoned analyst last night in working the Demetrius Andrade vs. Grady Brewer fight on ESPN2′s Friday Night Fights as an analyst. If didn’t know it was the talented Ward, the best fighter in the super middleweight division, I could have sworn I was listening to someone with years of broadcasting schooling.
The Froch-Ward fight is considered to be the finals of the tourney, but it’s more like one of the preliminary fights because the real fights for Ward in the division comes later after he whips Froch like a bad habit. The real guys that Ward needs to worry about are IBF super middleweight champion Lucian Bute, Anthony Dirrell and Andre Dirrell.
Those are the only guys in the division that can give Ward a fight. Sorry, Froch, but you’re too slow of foot and hand to compete with Ward. That much is going to be obvious by the 4th round when Ward slowly but surely makes Froch look like an ape in the ring. The television analysts will likely start tuning out and thinking past the fight already, talking about how Ward will do against guys like Andre Dirrell, Anthony Dirrell and Bute.

Ward did come across pretty good on ESPN. too bad he cannot punch is a dancer.
Ward will humble Froch! Let’s Hope Carl doesn’t retire after this. I’d like to see him fight a few of the light heavyweights.
easy now the colour of ones skin doesnt determine weather or not you will be great
sweetscientist i hate to say it but i think your probably spot on there. but i do think froch will pressure ward through out the fight and not just in the early rounds. i will say this win or lose i would rather watch a froch fight then a ward fight froch is great to watch ward is a little like mayweather as far as not making mistakes in his game he is very safe and that for me doesnt make for great viewing
recent times tell us that the blacks just don’t cut it at the top so I’ll pick Froch to win.
People that think Froch is going to “school” Ward or “dominate” him haven’t been paying attention. Andre Ward hasn’t lost a fight since he was a 12 year old amateur! He makes the best in-fight adjustments of any fighter not named Floyd Mayweather. That being said, Froch is no joke and will pressure Ward in the early rounds. But Ward figures him out by mid fight and goes on to a clear cut UD.
ward has some boxing skills no doubt but is overrated just because is an american black boxer …. I saw the fight aginst Bika and ward didn’t do much thinks … Froch schooled
Abraham but Ward struggled to beat Abraham , indeed styles make fights but Froch is a better fighter and a true warrior and I think he will punish Ward !
I think scotty boy has a little crush. A bit heavy on the praise I think. I don’t think I’ve ever thought a commentator was amazing before, and I’ve heard sid waddel
FROCH is gonna school this guy who cant puch!!!
Ward getting KtfO
Scott, are you the promoter of the Dirrells. Whom did Anthony fought but cancer?
If you may have noticed, not many of Andre’s fans log on to this site and share their thoughts. That’s because either they don’t have any, or they have no interest, or they don’t have a computer/ laptop to do so. But the Froch fans, well they are out here in force tantalizing cyberspace with all their might of the keyboard and sharing their bone-head ideas about this fight. You fools ought to think back at how Andre Ward re-arranged Mikkel Kessler’s face. Of course you do recall how Kessler wound up beating the Froch out of Carl? As for Mr. Anonymous, if you hate this site so much why bother? Do you really think boxing fans buy into your ignorant idea of “Black Boxer Lover?” Why don’t you say that about the people who support Lennox Lewis? Now as for the rest of you idiots, what do you have against Andre Ward anyway? Why can’t you just accept the fact that the fight is going to be a good one? Andre Ward is an Olympic Champion and Froch, well he isn’t. Andre Ward is going to whip the Froch out of the slow footed Carl the garden snake.
Anytime you see a stupid lead in to a story on this site . You know it’s from Gilfraud The Black boxer lover…….Ward will enter the ring at fight time AFRAID! Froch will beat him up
The grossly over rated hommoie Ward will end up laying in a pool of his own blood getting ktfo inside 8rds.
When Whitaker bent at the knees to avoid shots, his head was still available to be punched, it was masterfull! When dirrell bends over, ther is no where to hit him but in the back of the head, or in the back period. It’s the same as turning your back.
why the hell has the other dirrell donkey come into the frame now??? lets hope hes better than his brother. andre should concentrate on athletics, he ran quicker than usain bolt in the froch fight
y Andre Dirrell ? whats he done to derserve to be menioted in the same breath as Bute and Ward and Carl Froch for that matter, who Dirrell ran like a scared girl from
Your gonna eat ur words scott when froch claims the WBA belt
is this the same article i,ve read for months now. look scott maybe you just come out and declare your undying love for ward. write sumink new we get it you think ward will win fair play i think otherwise, move on mate its getting really tedious now.
As a fellow writer on this website can I ask are you ever gonna write a proper article and by the way Andre Dirrell ain’t that good.
I picked Carl Froch to win the tourney from the beginning on the boxing questionare right here.However the more I have seen of Ward the more I respect his intelligent boxing complexity.While Andre is without real great punching power,he is extremely savy and hits hard enough to gain respect.This will be a great fight however it concludes.
Don’t think thats going to happen he get dragged into a war which suit carl
what are u going 2 come out with if “THE COBRA” dominates and knocks him spark out?
YOU ARE RIGHT!!!!!!!
