Andre who??

Andre who??

Andre, the non white/russian/slav/former ussr born american gold medalist ward. you probably never heard of him. of course if his name was Andrei Wladmanovich, im sure youd have him as your avi this very moment.

I doubt it, I doubt we'll see another cross over star like DLH for a while.

especially since ward, i hate saying it seeing as how hes from the city i live in, doesnt have that charisma, nor does he have much crossover appeal, not to mention, he fights in a generally dead division IMO.

Yeah, he doesn't strike me as a guy with the charisma needed to be a crossover star, his inactivity doesn't help either.

DLH at 16 fights in his career was already a big star, 4 years into his career, he was almost a superstar.

Super Middleweight is one of the best divisions in boxing.

[MANGLER]

No way. He can be a star and a champ but I don't see him blowin up that big.

[Cadillac Man]

If this was the 70's or 80's and Ward won his gold medal on ABC then maybe but those days are gone. He also has lost all momentum from that gold medal he won by only having 16 fights in four years. For the guy that said 168lb division is weak u need to check ur facts kid. Dirrell,Ward,Kessler,Jacobs,Pavlik(soon),Abraham(s oon),Dawson(he said if a big money fright presents itself he'd fight at 68) P-will (soon) lots of big money fights will be made around 68 in the coming years.
