Carl Froch isn’t impressed with Andre Ward’s recent comments.
The American had claimed that he would have found fighting Anthony Joshua easier than facing Joe Calzaghe.
And old rival Carl Froch let rip at him. Speaking to Lord Ping he said:
“I think Andre Ward’s comments on Anthony Joshua and Joe Calzaghe are f****** ridiculous because Anthony Joshua is far too big for him. It would be a mismatch because of the size difference. I don’t get where he’s coming from. AJ is six feet six and 18 stone, Andre Ward wouldn’t have a f******* chance. Boxing is a weight governed sport, Ward is talking nonsense.”

Froch then went on to give his assessment on a Ward vs Calzaghe fight.
He continued: “I think he gives Calzaghe a really tough fight though, that’s a tough night for Calzaghe, a great fight. But he’s talking bullshit about Anthony Joshua. AJ is too big and too strong for Andre Ward, I’d actually enjoy watching AJ knockout Andre Ward, I’d pay to see it. But Ward does beat Calzaghe, he doesn’t really have any chinks in his armour. Calzaghe deserved to lose against Robin Reid, Reid should have got the nod. He also struggled against an old Hopkins and an old Roy Jones, so you’ve got to pick Ward over Calzaghe.”
Froch fought Ward in 2011 suffering a points defeat to the S.O.G.
