Andre Ward fighting June 20th in Oakland.

Ill be there. Would be cool if they did some sorta concert type deal as well

Periban is #25 on BoxRec, Smith is #31. I'd prefer Smith. Periban is 1-3-1 in his last 5 and was pathetic vs. DeGale. Periban would be like batting practice. Ward would handle him if he were coming off a 10 year layoff.

Have to talk to Ward fans on their own level of mediocrity. :) He schooled everyone besides Bika, beat Froch without breaking a sweat, to the point he wouldnt even want a rematch in the Uk

Why are you living in the past? Have to talk to Ward fans on their own level of mediocrity. :)

By the time he has his next fight, the Super 6 tournament will be THREE AND A HALF YEARS in the past. How long are Ward and his fans going to continue to live on that? Since his last fight in the tournament against Froch, he has fought TWICE. Yes, that is TWO FIGHTS in THREE AND A HALF YEARS and a year and a half since his most recent outing in the ring against a drained opponent who could not make weight. Ward is a sham and his fans need a new hero. Why are you living in the past?

To be fair, all fights involving Ricardo Mayorga were hyped. But IMO, even if he did fight Mayorga as a comeback fight, itd be better than fighting some club fighter or journeyman. You mean like Smith or Periban?

Give a damn where he fights, just FIGHT! Ward cleaned out his Division, he can basically fight where he wants...You want him out of Oakland? GO BEAT HIM and force him to come out of Oakland! He did not Cruise threw the Super 6 getting "Controversial Decisions In Oakland" like make it seems like he did Hopefully it is a Decent Opponent! Roc Nation does need to secure a partnership with a Network or something. By the time he has his next fight, the Super 6 tournament will be THREE AND A HALF YEARS in the past.

He is going to be re-branded, that's all his next couple of fights will be about imo. That's the only thing that makes sense to me. Will he be any less boring to watch fight?

Does this make any sense? Wouldn't it be better if they just took short money from HBO or even Fox? Sadly, he could've had two fights already this year by the time he takes this one. And against Porky Medina? Oh well. He is going to be re-branded, that's all his next couple of fights will be about imo. That's the only thing that makes sense to me.

Lets see Wardstans hype the fight when the opponent is named as Ricardo Mayorga. To be fair, all fights involving Ricardo Mayorga were hyped. But IMO, even if he did fight Mayorga as a comeback fight, itd be better than fighting some club fighter or journeyman.

Ward dont fight, he gets dissed, Ward schedules a fight, he gets dissed. Gotta love NSB posters. Yes. How dare us common fans expect a world champion to fight a legitimate contender. Of course I understand that he is coming off a grueling court battle. You have to admire his courage.

Oakland you say.. http://www.godlikeproductions.com/sm/custom/c/n/eipgbcca.jpeg

Only a fool would think Wards team would put him in with a top guy right away. This is a tune-up fight.

Can Jayz get a refund?

Sounds like this isn't going to be much of a challenge for Ward but hopefully he is done taking breaks and keeps a consistent fight schedule after this first mismatch he is about to take.

Time buy on BET? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CBnib3JUEAA78Fn.jpg Wow! I figured they could do Fox, maybe get paid a little but more importantly get Andre some prime time exposure. This is about a joke if it happens. Too bad he didn't have the balls to go to Nottingham and prove he still has it.
