Andre Ward excelled in this fight. Froch tried everything but failed to impose himself on Ward. Great fight.

Unfortunately we were robbed of the opportunity to witness ward vs Calzaghe. Both retired undefeated greats

Dre never got enough credit for his inside game!!! He could fight EFFECTIVELY at every level!!!

Andre Ward was exceptional there was no disgrace in Froch losing there. Although he was outclassed the fight was still competitive you can never rule Froch out. He’s hard as nails and has the heart of a lion.

I'm sure I read Froch had wanted to fight Calzaghe? That would have been embarrassing

What a shame this wasn't in front of "80,000" fans.

The cobra blocked nearly every head shot with his face. Ward took him to school.

That shoulder looked to be in great pain there 9:33

Massive difference in ability ... that's the hard truth about boxing. Ward is on another level.

113-115 my ass! That fight wasn't even close at all.

True calzaghe would have beaten both , he was just so so fast and never stopped punching, he was also great at working out his opponents style

How many times dis you get tagged with the left hook

This is a great fight to coach young boxers - Ward demonstrates the ring martialship to adapt to an opponent and builds everything from his defence and jab dominance. Whilst Froch has the heart and stamina that any champion needs at some point. I’m always sad to hear Froch downplay this fight as ‘boring’ - he diminishes his own accomplishment to have fought so stoically and create such an entertaining spectacle. He just didn’t have the skill pedigree that Ward had - and that’s ok, Ward was a unique talent as a left handed orthodox Olympic Gold medalist… there’s nothing but honour in taking him 12 rounds!

Froch thinks this fight was close😂

Beautiful André Ward🥊

Froch biggest narcissist ever in sports history!! He talks about 20 seconds before he mentions himself 😂😂😂😂😂😂

OMG 😦 completely outclassed

Froch looked like he was inside a washing machine most of that fight, levels as they say 🥊

Froch tough as teak but nowhere near Wards class.Got schooled and it’s rumoured Ward also broke his hand in the fourth.I think Froch had a remarkable career as I don’t think he was a particularly skilful g go fighter. Respect to both men.

Joe was in a different class to these two👍 much better👍

Now imagine what the great Calzaghe would’ve done 🤔

Ward won this fight by 4 or 5 rounds. Ward was just too fast for the Cobra and fought the perfect tactical fight.

❤😂froch with the after bell shot and multiple back of head strikes...god loves a trier. 😅

God bless you Carl and family and friends for that last comment 🇬🇧 ❤️

This was a mismatch; Froch could not deal with Ward's speed and angles. Ward is a natural left-hander, so that lead left jab carries plenty of sting in it. Of this era of super middles, only Calzaghe would have been in with a shout of beating Ward, and even that would have been far from certain. Uneven but good scrap - thanks for uploading.

115-113 in this fight is wild.

How can you not be a fan of froch as a fighter? Hard as nails, k.o power, heart of a lion and always in exciting fights. Ward different level but dont get the froch hate

Froch was schooled, it didnt look like he won a single round

I have heard Froch saying he thought he won this since. Its funny how time and a lot of punches can cloud your memory.

Froch even raised his own hand 😂 One just had it 15-12 OMG ! At least his pockets are full

The Corbra looked like the Gatden Snake against Ward.

Ward completely dismantled froch, he got obliterated by a class fighter

While you can’t question frochs relentless determination to win, his chin and overall fitness, he was very limited with actual boxing skills

Great competitive fight

Froch was world class. Ward was elite.

Froch was open target leaning on front foot Ward just sliding and slick movement with weight on rear foot

The scorecards are proof that you shouldn't trust, leaving it in the judges hands... He practically out-pointed/out-boxed Carl in every round. It's been years since I've seen this fight, but the way I remember it, i gave Carl maybe 3 rounds, 4 if I'm being modest. I don't recall it being a shutout, be i do remember thinking by the 9th or 10th round, the only way he wins the fight is by knockout. And in my opinion it wasn't something Andre did that was exceptionally well, he wasn't super defensive, he dropped his guards a lot, fought on the inside. What gave Carl the biggest problem was Andre's speed, and that jab that seemed to land whenever Andre threw it.

Very good Andre Ward schooled an arrogant carl froch

Froch is tough, plenty of heart but Ward was such a talented boxer that heart and durability weren't enough to beat him!

The Cobra was still standing and not even tired at the end, schooled my ass, shut up marks 😂😂😂😂

Ward made Froch look as though he was 65 years old.....way too fast for Froch

2:15 “I wouldn’t even use the jab… I would just get close” possibly the STUPIDEST advice I’ve ever heard in boxing, especially when the JAB helps you close the distance

Ward was another level

By one rd was about to be a massive robbery

Froch got unnerved and was just not as good as Ward in any department that night. Ward wasn’t an exciting fighter but he was clinical. Calzaghe would have smashed Ward and Froch imo.

Ward v Calzaghe would have been an amazing fight if they could both have been in their prime

Froch was a great fighter but his defense was always appalling.

Two great warriors.

Andre ward is all time great.

Froch in his prime was a great fighter. In this fight his defense was messy his punches were sloppy he looked like he’d just stumbled out of the boozer🍺

How fast are wards hands, bloody hell 😮😮

Froch got schooled in first gear😂

Wardes best performance but he was generally a very dirty fighter. He smashed kovalev balls to bits!!

No respect for ward he lost to kovalev 1 and left when bivol and beterbiev came in the 175 division. He said nope I’m retiring.

Froch throws a cheap elbow at 9:13 and misses like usual 😂

Is this the same Ward who turned into Andrew Golota when he fought Sergey Kovalev and hit him in the nuts about 100 times?

Andre Ward makes up for his short arms with speed and timing.

dismantled like like an old ford sierra in a scrap yard

Froch was always limited boxing wise and Ward was far too intelligent to get into a war with Froch...Never any chance Ward could stop Froch but was disciplined and out boxed Froch and never put himself in danger

😩😩 is that Carl frog getting slapped about

You are to go find a 90 year old boxer for him

Ward was backing up most of the time!!

Good brawler,excellent chin but definitely not a hall of famer.

Such a shame Ward retired

Both way too slow for Calzaghe

Froch is tough but different level ward is

Just google the punch stats and it's clear that Froch literally lost EVERY round in this fight! Ward landed both more power shots and jabs in every round and had Froch swinging at air and resorting to cheap shots that didn't work! Ward won every round clearly! Those 15-13 cards were criminal!

Ward cooked him!!

Got taken to school. There are levels boys and girls! Just as well he wasn't a hall of famer at the time and it wasn't in front of a sell out crowd of 80,000 at Wembley (!) Fury sold out Tottenham Hotspur stadium for his sparring session with Chisora....We have an awful lot of bored people out there! 🤔

I'd like to have seen Calzaghe Vs Ward. I still think Ward gets it

Joe and the referee didn't beat Robin Reid either. I'm truly a Calzaghe fan, but also a realist.

Andre Ward got skills but no knock out power. Weak as fuck for a so called top top fighter

Wow mr 80,000 looking like a dog in there against a superior opponent on the night

Never understood why this fight was close, Carl Froch was robbed and yep he beat SOG 8-4 or 9-3 really easy peesy.

And yet both judges gave it 115-113 Ward

How good was WARD!

Ward got through with left hook all night and twice on Sunday

Carl froch has got to have one of the most unlikeable personalities ever in boxing

Still think froch could have beaten calzaghe?? …..

Lots of holding by Ward.

Imagine what RJ would have done to Froch

Peak time Calzaghe beats both of them.

Ward took that shit

Lol it was one sided, Ward is the truth. Excellent defensive ability, Excellent offensive. Froch is good boxer, but no clue to american powerhouses being created in the plantation of the west.

Froch was terrible against Ward the Pugilst, he had a good career beating lesser opposition, never in a million years he'd have beat Joe Calzaghe.

Yes but froch made him work.hard for that win , I was surprised how hard ward struggled with him, I expected ward to finish him , for.me froch was his toughest fight by far, bet ward didn't want a rematch froch was always dangerous late on

113-115?😂

Ward dog walked dude

Schooled

Froch hard as nails. Ward far more skillful boxer. End of.

Carl Froch 😂😂😂

Ward dominares froch

Little known fact. Froch is the only english dna champ. The rest are not english. 😢ward took him to school ❤😂🎉

Calzagi never fought a top fighter in their prime. So hard to gauge how good he really was.

Ward disgusting 🤢 to watch

Froch was a shit boxer bt good chin and punch got through. I still think he clearly lost to Andre direll

Calzaghe não creio quer ele venceria de maneira nenhuma o Andre ward.

Saul Canelo would beat up both of them , in his prime .

Carl Froch was a terrible boxer better talker

The German got his ass kicked.
