By Scott Gilfoid: WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward (27-0, 14 KO’s) would like nothing better than to get a second fight against IBF/WBA super middleweight champion Carl Froch (32-2, 23 KO’s) to prove that his first victory over him from 2011 wasn’t a fluke, but Ward has some real concerns about him having to go over to the UK to fight Froch.
Ward saw how Froch’s fight went last Saturday night with George Groves with the fight being stopped in the 9th round while Groves was still battling, and Ward obviously has memories of watching fellow American talent Andre Dirrell go over to the UK and fight Froch in his own backyard in Nottingham in 2009 and ending up losing that fight by a controversial 12 round split decision.
