Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Trainer: Andre Ward, Handlers Don't Want The Rematch

I really hope it does.
If it doesnt all objective fans will turn on ward ......except for them fan boys.

1) an objective observer simply would not think that way

2) an objective observer simply could not make that assumption, on a purely hypothetical scenario, without knowing 1 single fact


your knickers are showing, and I smell pu55y

Cmon!

You guys are better than this, right?

If the rematch doesn't happen, can we kill this noise about Ward being afraid?

The biggest reasons for the rematch happening will be 1) Money and 2) Money.

And we might not be just talking about Ward there.

Sergei is going to want (and will deserve) a good chunk himself.

So how are you going to pay TWO guys who want (and deserve) top dollar when it is clear the PPV buys just may not be there?

Throw in Ward not being tied to HBO (the Kovalev fight was the 3rd required fight in the 2 fight deal he signed last year) and THAT is what we are dealing with, not anyone's fear.

If and when they do fight again, my guess is if JDJ and Sergei don't come up with any tactical and/or strategic adjustments we will see round 13 of what we saw from pretty much the 3rd round on of the first fight- with Ward having the added benefits of knowing what to expect AND a full camp with Mackie Shilstone

not without half a ton of napalm dropped on those clowns

fanboy tards will be fanboy tards

like this " objective " kid I have been sparring with

They thought they had some mega star in Ward that they could market to the American audience and have a Mayweather 2.0. It's never going to happen, they stole the fight from Kovalev imo. It's a win in the books for Ward but there are serious doubts in a lot of minds and Ward is already talking like he will make a rematch unobtainable during negotiations; especially when you consider how poorly the first fight did. This dude got $5 million the first time and will surely want several million more than that for a rematch, most likely double.

GREAT POINT !!

People need to look no further than the Pascal rematch. Killa Kov toyed with him the entire fight and battered him all around the ring.

your predictions for the first fight were downright embarrassing

here we go again

Ward =/= Pascal

[aboutfkntime]

If ward avoids a rematch, i think we have no choice but to call him the D word.

How are you going to determine Ward doesn't want the rematch? What criteria will be utilized.....aside from believing everything that comes from Kov's camp.

Someone gets it, fans conveniently forget that boxing is a business and sometimes business delays fights. People might not really understand how hard it can be to resolve the issues you pointed out:

Ward's expired contract with HBO. He seems a bit jaded theses days, no guarantee he even wants to resign with HBO.

The aftermath of the low PPV.

Kov's purse, it was speculated he'd receive a percentage of the PPV. Based on the low numbers he might want more money for the rematch.

Last but not least, how much money is HBO willing to contribute, their budget isn't what it used to be.

Each point alone can realistically be a deal breaker.

exactly

and that b1tch calls himself " objective "

that is why I call him the B word

Call it whatever you want bubba, I don't care. That's the impression I got, especially when he made a big deal out of saying the rematch will have to be a whole new set of demands since he's champ now. That's the tip of the iceburg, and next thing will be the ducking. I'm all for the fight happening sooner than later. Hopefully Ward doesn't start stalling and whining when negotiations start. This is NOT a fight that Roc Nation can afford to pizzaway another X million $$ on. But Ward could still weasel out of it easily... "not enough money for a legend like me" blah blah blah. Then on to a line of easy defenses where he gets 1/3 the money. You should be able to extrapolate this fairly easily.

no link ?

then fk that rubbish

[truefan]

Jackson needs to admit that his fighter was beaten to the body and had no stamina. The judges saw his power zapped and was lost a decision. Ward got better as Sergey slowed. The scores were right and could have went either way. Rematch!

You bonehead, you don't even understand what I'm talking about. Just go find some heavy traffic to play in little one. LOL

[stuff jones]

Damn, looks like aboutfkntime is Ms Ward.

ummm, you said this.....

I'm not going searching for the articles, but Ward has said more than once that a rematch is unnecessary.....

Not only have I never heard Ward make that comment, I recall him saying the exact opposite "more than once"..... so, I asked for a link?

all I have heard from Ward is, "of course I will give him a rematch"..... so dig those articles out please, all of them

I call bull**** on that one ^^

because YOU said this earlier.....

Careful writing checks you can't cash, friend.

..... I should have a link about now, right ?
