    Ward has already been put in. Froch hasn't yet. But i know how it goes, so it isn't out of the ordinary.

    Naz is a legit HOF'er though. He deserves to be there. he's got the resume for it. Gatti doesn't belong though.

    It's funny you say you don't do this "Brits vs Americans" thing. But accept Americans who don't deserve to be in the hall, but constantly deny Brits their right to being there, even though they have proven to be worthy. So that's interesting. It really is. Maybe it's just coincidence? Maybe it's actually not. The patterns tell me everything i need to know.

    But you keep following the same patterns an American usually takes with the avoidance of answering questions...

    Why did Ward refuse Bute entry into the Super Six? Everyone else was fine with it? Why did he act like an entitled little brat and threaten to walk if he were allowed in?

        Bad take dude. Love him or hate him, Ward was a great negotiator, or a diva. Depending on how you want to term it. He was never the easiest guy to do a fight with. Never travelled at all etc. Like most fighters, he wanted the easiest fight that made the most money. Unlike most other fighters, he usually got what he wanted.

          To be fair, he sued his promoter, and lost, 3 times. He definitely seems to think the rules/laws don't apply to him. I'm sure he has been advised to not come back however. Maybe he will listen to that advice this time.

            it was a one sided fight pretty much. Even Froch wasn’t exactly screaming for a rematch.
            2 judges in the US had it 7-5....it was a 7-5 fight

              He was a very tough smart fighter in the ring, no doubt about that.

                  Who said anything about hate? I never. I just called you out when saying Ward was HOF worthy when he wasn't, but claim worthy fighters such as Naz and Froch, are not. I didn't use the word "Hate". But your judgement is crazy off. You can't justify any of this.

                  You have avoided the question again...

                  Why did Ward threaten to walk away from the Super Six if Lucian Bute was allowed to enter if Ward didn't duck him?

                      He ducked Bute. He said Bute wasn’t qualified while he himself set up a fight with Dmitri Sartison lmao.

                      He ducked a Kessler rematch also. He asked for an offer and he got one but failed to even reply. It’s all documented in by court papers when he sued the terminally ill Goosen (and lost in embarrassing fashion). The Kessler offer was the largest payday offered to ward at that time, but ward obviously knew he couldn’t win fighting away from jOakland.
