Super Six final had less than 500,000 viewers

Ward isnt a star since his handlers do nothing to promote him. He needs to find the right people. An amazing fighter like this needs good people behind him.

With that sleep inducing style, P.T. Barnum couldn't make this kid a star.

Both Froch and Bute are FAR more popular than Andre Ward.

James Kirkland has more of a chance at becoming a star, even me as a hardcore fan I don't get excited for Ward fights. I haven't even watched most of his last ones live to be honest, already know he's going to win a boring uneventful decision.

hell of a fighter though, just guy has such a boring style to watch.

boxing has become a popularity contest...LOL

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

I don't think Ward's boring. He's fast, he can be quite varied, he throws a decent number of punches with both hands. He's no Rocky but he's not Valuev either.

Those viewing figures are just sad. I'm sure it will have done OK on Sky in the UK. I think the biggest issue in the US is the heavyweight division. The smaller guys need the glamour division to be a proper standard bearer for the sport, and it isn't right now.

Damn that is very interesting point in the bold!!

Ward needs HBO....PERIOD. As for someone mentioning Brandon Rios got more views than Ward....if im not mistaken, he became pretty known in HBO 24/7 with Pac and Margs, especially with his antics making fun on Freddie.

The casual fan just wants to see blood-and-guts wars every time. But if you are a true fan of the sport you can appreciate an Andre Ward or a Pernell Whitaker even though they are not knockout artists.

Wards style is just too boring and frustrating to look at. Floyd, Whitaker, and Bradley are all fighter I enjoy watching. Ward however, I think he gets away with too much dirty stuff, and hugging that make his fights boring.
