BAD YEAR FOR THE BRITS Hey Dougie, How's it going? I've been a long time reader of The Ring website and your mailbag, but this is the first time I've written in, but I'll do my best to get to the point:- 1. Super Six Final- Were you surprised how one-sided the fight was in the end? I wasn't. I like Carl Froch as a guy and a fighter, but I felt that Andre Ward exposed Froch's weaknesses to the point where The Cobra just didn't know what to do. If you watch Froch's fights with Andre Dirrell and Jermain Taylor you can see how he struggles against speed. The only reason he didn't lose those fights was because one was in his hometown (I fight I was at) and the other was against a guy who inexplicably can't last 12 rounds. Ward's speed, slick movement to avoid punches and his accurate counter punching made it almost impossible for someone as slow as Froch to lay a glove on the guy. Froch has achieved a hell of a lot in the last 2 years, but he's 34 so maybe its time to call it a day now? Also, how the hell did two of the judges score it 115-113???!!! I couldn't believe that. I gave Froch three rounds and I thought that was generous. |
