Anyone else notice that Ward has 5 losses as an amateur?

http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Andre_Ward#Amateur_Highlights I could have sworn those HBO announcers said he had never lost a fight in his life... Golokovin has 5 losses in 355 amatuer bouts so lets make that fight

they were simply mentioning that hes never lost a tourney as an am. or pro(super six).

I actually think they did say since he was 12 on HBO also. I wasnt paying attention much. Im pretty sure they said 12 though and then went on about being undefeated. Maybe the stuff before 12 was some other kinda stuff........lol honeslty, you're talking about a 12 year old. the times he loses boxing matches at that stage honeslty have no bearing.

yeah kinda... larry merchant was the man who said it, if i remember correctly he's 81 and has been senile for many decades now. he also drinks enough to be known as "vodkabreath." i wouldn't put a ton of stock into what that man has got to say.

:rofl: nitpick much? do you really care? yeah kinda...because it seems like it was mentioned multiple times and they went out of their way to mention it...and it was obviously not true to any boxing fan. i'm just curious as to whether or not it was an accident

yeah i know that is true. but did the hbo announcers just outright lie? I do believe they said that..However, I don't think it was deliberate/intentional. They have spoken numerous times about Ward not losing since he was 12, as have other networks. It's pretty common knowledge in the boxing world. The ring commentators slip up a lot, that's all I think it was.

they did say he's never lost a pro or amateur fight.

He hasn't lost since he was 12 years old.. yeah i know that is true. but did the hbo announcers just outright lie?

He hasn't lost since he was 12 years old..
