    Reading and comprehension is vital dumb ass! If can't follow along get out.
    You know this is the Super six ******? this is were he is meant to step up not face some hasbeen and his buddy from the Olympics. He is gonna get KTFO by Abraham for sure he wont be ready after facing these past it or bum American fighters and getting a free pass to the final

      All I can say is WOW! WOW! Are you really that dumb? Is reading difficult for you? Is following along tough? It's like you are responding to something totally different than what is posted.

Sure, most of the guys he fought had winning records, but (like Khan) they were ballooned by inadequate and average competition. If Ward's handlers don't start raising the stakes, he's gonna get embarassed like Khan did.
          He fought Miranda someone better than most and owned him for 12 rounds.

            Do you think Ward fighting out of his country and in others backyards, no the chicken demand to fight all his fight at home

              Ward fought Sugar Poo and Miranda in his 18th and 19th pro fights. He has been fighting 10 and 12 rounders since he was 13-0. It really is a descent resume for a 20-0 25 y/o fighter.

              Obviously the true barometer will be Kessler. By the TS is way off base in his attack.

                What the TS fails to realize is that when tournaments, round robin formats and the like are created, someone is going to get an "easier" than others.

                If Carl Froch had the same scheduled opponents, would you be complaining?Because I highly doubt it.

                    Actually, Ward pulled in nearly 10,000 for the Miranda fight at the Oracle Arena. They are expecting to have close to a sell out.

                      Both Ward and Dirrell are prospects being thrown into the fire with this tourney, and I respect them for accepting the challenge. It is a little strange that Kessler has to travel to Oakland for this fight, and there is a chance he gets screwed, but I doubt it comes to that.

                      Come on, enough with the Europe vs. USA crap. We get a fight between the top guy at 168 and a talented young guy in his biggest test. Enjoy it.
