Taylors superpowers will be back vs Ward

The thing that gets me, is Ward doesn't have to resort to any dirty tactics, or depend on biased judges or refs....he has the skills to fight clean and still win. If he fought Kessler in Germany, and fought clean, he still would have beaten him. Kessler was too stationary and one dimensional, while Ward is very adaptive, has the attributes of Cotto and Pac, he's smart, has nice punch power, good chin, good lateral movement, and I agree that he is being favoured as the American last hope champ. Dirrel doesn't stand a chance against him. Kessler didn't get a fair shake from the ref several times, and he let Ward get away with a lof of crap. Ward doesn't need anything from anybody in his favour, he can do it himself. I wish they would be fair about the whole thing.

That's what I'm thinking. But if Ward can get away with all the hitting while holding and headbutting, it'll be difficult for Jermain. There needs to be a fair referee. Good point I also think the proWard ref will be looking for any reason whatsoever to stop the fight even if Taylor isnt really in danger

Can someone 'splain' dis to me? I don't want to create another thread... a shit hot, fast talking promoter, who fooled everyone playing the 'Andre hasn't got the experience , he'll need to fight at home to balance things out card '

style wise taylor has the ability too give ward a lot of problems Ward simular to Hopkins .........................

All of his fights? That's f.ucking ludricrous to me. That seems like such an unreasonable demand by any boxer let alone, a guy who at the time, was a contender and not WBA title holder. Even demanding that all your fights be in the U.S., I think is very unreasonable and he's demanding all of them to be in Oakland? What a b.itch, Andre Ward is; that's just lame as hell..:lame: Because his hometowns ref and judges don't like to travel

style wise taylor has the ability too give ward a lot of problems Maybe at one time but not now. Ward will ko Taylor. I won't like it but that's what going to happen.

I think Taylor is going to pull it off. He's just allergic to white fighters, the rot stops now!

War Taylor! Interesting how Taylor, who doesn't talk about religion, is a clean fighter and a nice guy. Ward, who claims to be the Son of God, is a dirty fighter and an asshole. Jermain should insist on a neutral referee from outside California. Taylor ain't beating Ward in Taylor own backyard.

This is probably the right answer. All the powers that be, the highest authorites and money controllers are favoring Ward. I can see it, And I am not favouring Ward, Just an observation on the fights, the viewpoints and conditions for his fights, the ref even favouring Ward in his fight with Kessler, i can see this happening. Here's the kicker. Ward is indeed an excellant fighter. i can see him taking the tourney fighting fair, with an unbiased ref, judges in places other than his hometown, no headbutting or anything. If he can get past AA, he's got it. But he doesn't need all these extra advantages, including headbutting, to win. I think he's good enough, and hungry enough to take it fairly. Maybe this is why the "powers that be" arrange to favour him, cuz they can pull it off w/o enough controversy to affect the outcome. Boxingpromoter, i agree with you..he is getting special treatment. And this may very well be why. Does it suck? yes. Is it fair? No. Is there corruption wherever there is a lot of money to be made? You bet your ass. great post! good too see someone keeping it real

because showtime wants their big american hope.....:usa2: This is probably the right answer. All the powers that be, the highest authorites and money controllers are favoring Ward.

No, I'm rooting for Taylor 100%. I don't hate any black fighter. The two I don't like are both mulatto (Haye and Ward) but that's a coincidence, I love Halle Berry who's also mulatto. dont we all like halle berry lol what you got against ward? im not a big fan too be honest his style is very ugly

Ward's half white? Bhopreign and Burner won't like him if they find out. :( im sure he will rise in your estimation though! :rofl:

Tbh JT has just gone up against the best and hasn't pussied out, everyone can get K.Os by pavlik, Froch n Abraham, these lads are big hitters unlike Ward i'd be suprised if it was KO i wouldn't man......i dont think taylor has a bad chin at all......like you said, pavlik and abraham can KO anyone.........in fact much easier than they did to Taylor........but by this time, jermains chin may be shot........if it isnt though, and he is still half the fighter he once was, he will give ward problems.......**** showtime though.........how the **** did they throw taylor with Abraham after just getting KO'ed??......................

style wise taylor has the ability too give ward a lot of problems

iffy is a massive understatement! your way to kind. Tbh JT has just gone up against the best and hasn't pussied out, everyone can get K.Os by pavlik, Froch n Abraham, these lads are big hitters unlike Ward i'd be suprised if it was KO

Are all of Andre's fight going to be in Oakland? Why is he getting special treatment over all the other combatants?... because showtime wants their big american hope.....:usa2:

Andre Ward refused to participate in the Super Six unless he could have all his fights at home in Oakland. Hershman agreed because he hopes Ward will take the titles away from the Europeans. It's talked about here: All of his fights? That's f.ucking ludricrous to me. That seems like such an unreasonable demand by any boxer let alone, a guy who at the time, was a contender and not WBA title holder. Even demanding that all your fights be in the U.S., I think is very unreasonable and he's demanding all of them to be in Oakland? What a b.itch, Andre Ward is; that's just lame as hell..:lame:

all the Taylor naysayers are overlooking one thing. Ward is not white. Taylor will be back to normal. :lol1::fingersx: The problem is, Ward is legit half white. I was surprised to see the clip on his white dad, who died from heart problems.

For the love of God, can someone enlighten me on this Andre Ward thing? I give ya a f.ucking ribbon...

Anyone? Please explain the Ward thing...
