Why is testing such a big deal, these guys should be willing to go through any test to prove they are the best...now the refs yeah they need a good ref for B HOP JR (ward) lol

Shouldnt we be asking why Neutral officials is a sticking point, shouldnt every title fight have Neutral officials. Ward seems to be getting everything his own way, I think one day he'll have a rude awakening

I hope it happens at the Home Depot Center. That's my favorite venue for boxing.

I believe AA contract with his manager or promoter require WADA testing.

I like Andre Ward, but the way the referees let him get away with sticking his left hand out to measure opponents is frustrating.

i can understand the fights every now and then be in the fighters' home state or country , but ALL fights should have neutral refs and judges.it's only fair.just don't let Cole,reis, or caiz jr ref ANY fights any where .
