All Carl Froch fans should know who Andre Ward is breh....he destroyed him with 1 hand and it's the only loss Froch hasnt avenged yet.
You think Carl Froch has enough knowledgeable fans to fill a 90k stadium?

Better fighter or not, Ward is a nobody here, sorry. Would be stupid of them to try and use Wembley.

Froch is huge, Khan is even bigger as far as being a household name goes but attracts less fans.


But they're not going to sell 90k tickets for Andre Ward like they did say Groves, the interest isn't there.
Since according to the coli Euros this fight won't fill a stadium I don't want to hear dudes complaining when he has to fight in Oakland :smugfavre:
Wouldn't fill Wembley, there's numerous arenas and smaller stadiums it could fill.


At the end of the day Ward needs Froch more than Froch needs Ward.

They should fight somewhere else in London or Manchester.

:snoop: Why is he still begging to fight a dude you already beat easily
I don't get the logic, unless it's a money grab then do you.

And if he does get the fight and win, what's next? since he seems determined to stay at 168 with no real opponents to face


The WBA is forcing this match....not Ward. It's mandated by the WBA to combine the Super and Regular Championships together in order to create 1 WBA Champion at 168

aside from the wba ordering that fight, it's business my g.

froch last fight was with george groves. believe it or not froch came out with 10M pounds (15M in american) and groves made 2M pounds (3 million in american). ward aint stupid, he knows where the big money is at in the division and the shyt is overseas in frochs backyard. i can't see why he can't come out with more than groves if him and froch rematched. froch has BEATEN EVERYONE who he's fought, except for ward. it would be a nice buildup going into the fight.


nikkkas need to stop that bullshyt with ward not being known in the uk. any top american fighter going to the uk to fight another top fighter is gonna do numbers, period!

That's what I would assume.


How could Froch, who's supposed to be the BIGGEST draw in the UK, fight the only guy he's never beaten, who also just so happens to be considered the best fighter from 160-175 and was the #2 P4P behind Floyd Mayweather, NOT do any numbers in Froch's stomping grounds:dahell:


Klitschko did 30k against Tony Thompson in Switzerland back in 2012.....but Froch vs Ward 2 wont draw?:dwillhuh:

Froch: Andre Ward Not Coming To UK, It's All Hot Air!
Posted by: Edward Chaykovsky on 3/31/2015 .


By Edward Chaykovsky


Carl Froch is paying little to no attention to Andre Ward's claim of being willing to stage their rematch in the UK. Froch wanted the rematch to take place at City Ground in Nottingham - which Ward rejected. Ward says he is willing to face Froch in London but not in his hometown of Nottingham.

“The UK is one thing, Nottingham is something different,” Ward said to Sky Sports. “Now he’s saying ‘well, I came to America, now you need to come to Nottingham’. The thing is this: Atlantic City, where we fought the finals of the Super Six, it’s thousands of miles away from my home – that’s a road fight. I live on the west coast, the fight was on the east coast, which was a six-hour plane ride for me. I’m not willing to come to Nottingham, I don’t think I should have to, but Wembley stadium, the UK as a whole – I would love to come.”

The World Boxing Association recently ordered the two of them to fight each other. Froch holds the WBA's regular title at 168-pounds and Ward is the WBA's super champion at the weight. Ward won a twelve round unanimous decision over Froch in the 2011 Super Six tournament finals.

Froch also feels Ward is not capable of getting down to the super middleweight limit of 168-pounds.

“Don’t get too excited, I don’t think he’s going to come,” Froch told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast. “I think he’s found out that I dictate everything where Andre Ward is concerned because he’s got no TV coverage and he’s got no interest at all. He’s not boxed for three years and I’m still world champion


“I don’t think he will come to England now. I don’t even think he can do super-middleweight. He won an Olympic gold medal at light-heavyweight, he always struggles to fight at super-middleweight and I don’t know if you have seen the size of him lately but he’s walking around at 200-pounds. It’s all hot air. It’s all smoke and mirrors. I’m trying to get the fight with Julio Caesar Chavez Jr. I have to see how I feel when I go back to the gym and start training – if my body can’t do what my mind wants it to do then I’ll hang up the gloves anyway.”

Call out SOG to fight in the UK, be surprised when he takes you up on the offer and asks to fight at Wembley, and then start making up shyt about Ward not being able to make 168 anymore, bring up his Olympic weight class, claim Ward struggles to make 168, and also threaten to retire for good measure as well brehs:mjlol:



@krackdagawd, this dude is really scared:mjlol:



Got that ass beat with 1 hand, he really doesnt want it with SOG + both hands fine:banderas:

:lawd:




I doubt Eddie Hearn can out bid Jay-Z. Even if he did though, SOG would get a 80/20 split of that purse for fighting in Nottingham due to the WBA's purse bid rules.

I would think that alone would force Froch to try and have the fight at Wembley so he can maximize his 20%

SOB doesnt dictate shyt as i said last time :mjlol:

Mark my words, no chance of ward getting the 80%, the fight wont happen :francis: Froch is cashing out in this fight, its his last fight - he can fight Chavez jr, Degale or GGG and make more $ than fighting Ward :camby:

Ward should just appreciate any crumbs that Froch throws his way :ufdup:

You think Carl Froch has enough knowledgeable fans to fill a 90k stadium?

Better fighter or not, Ward is a nobody here, sorry. Would be stupid of them to try and use Wembley.

The froch/groves 2 fight did 90k because of the controversy of the first fight, they were both UK based fighters and Groves in from London. . . Plus we pretty much knew it would end in a KO.

there wont be 90,000 fans coming out to see Ward win a boring 12rd UD :yeshrug: Ward can barely fill his grandmothers basement in oakland for his fights :yeshrug:

Froch wants Ward to come to Nottingham to fill the football stadium, thats 30-40,000 seats . .
Why is Ward ruling out fighting in Nottingham? It aint like he's gonna get Bute'd or anything :yeshrug:
You're right - Ward more or less is a nobody here and doesnt dictate shyt:mjlol:

The only way i think they would fill out wembley is if the undercard is stacked, maybe Brook and AJ on the undercard.
