Comments Thread For: Ward vs Abraham is in Jeopardy of Being Called Off

[BattlingNelson]

This tourney is a joke and failed on pretty much every level. The only thing that could possibly salvage it is if Ward vs. Froch(because you know Glen won't be given that fight) is in Vegas and is a FOTY contender.

I wouldn't consider it a failure. Sure it didn't pan out as the organizer's had planned, but you don't think we would have had all those interesting and good match-ups without it do you?

Its shame !!!!!!!!!!!!!! The reason ward's team pulled this crap is because neutral officials wont let ward use his dirty tactics: Grab/clinch and headbutt. And the second reason might be is that ward is not well prepared in terms of strategy, and the third one, ward's team knows abraham had problems with postponing ...

Ward is obviously being protected.

Ward is being phony when he calls himself the "Son of God".

He preaches about God while knowing he is cheating and giving himself unfair advantages and that tells me he has no integrity therefore does not really have faith in God.

Ward the fraud he should be called, he and his team are an absolute disgrace they should be removed from the super six imo unless he fights abroad and with neutral refs.

All those interesting matchups were tainted in some way, except for Ward's last two, and those weren't against fighters originally in the tournament. Only one was actually good, Kessler-Froch, the rest were either one sided or bad fights. All the fighters dropping out, the stuff with Dirrell, Ward and his hometown fights, it has been a huge failure to me. And we aren't even done with what will go wrong in this tournament.

All the fights was interesting match-ups to me. I can assure that we would have only seen a fraction of these fights had there not been a tournament.

You can say that a couple of fights failed to live up to expectations but that's a completely different story.

in most world sports judges are neutrals like in football, rugby or cricket so why isn't boxing the same why is it that our sport is so ****ed up some times

Doesn't sound good on Ward.

But folks we have to consider the source. The Sauerlands ancestors funded the Hitler regime in Germany.

Did Ricky Hatton ever fight with neutral officials?
