Will the Andre Ward fight be shown on HBO?

[SuckaPunch]

Does anybody know if Andre Ward's fight will be televised as an undercard to Mayweather-Mitchell?

[AintGottaClue]

course it will be, he is an american gold medalist, and could be roy jones like since roy jones has full effort behind him, andre will not be a wasted talent, roy wont let him

I think having Ward on TV anymore could be a BACKWARDS step for him if he doesn't elevate his level of competition real quick. For a supposed superstar and a gold medal winner they are matching him like they aren't sure if he can fight or not.

I know it is absolute positively way too early to make a judgement on the kid but I did not like how he took that shot from Kenny Kost.

A fi9ghter can work on all sorts of **** in the gym but how to you improve your chin? Maybe he just got touched perfectly but the way he reacted has put a little seed of doubt in at least my mind.

I hope they show it but they will probably just show the highlights.

the shot he took from kenny was on the temple if im not mistaken, and dont forget kenny kost was 8-0 himself, we might yet to see kenny vs andre 2 for a championship,

From this week's "Fighting Words"

"4. Speaking of Ward, HBO fanned big time by reportedly turning down Bob Arum’s offer for placing, on their Nov. 19 Floyd Mayweather-Sharmba Mitchell show, one of the two canceled title fights from the Vitali Klitschko-Hasim Rahman pay-per-view. Instead of bouts with champions Antonio Margarito facing Manuel Gomez, or Martin Castillo defending against Alexander Munoz, viewers will see Andre Ward against another ham-and-egger. While it is understandable that HBO is seeking to market the only American gold medalist from the 2004 Olympic boxing team, it is perplexing as to why Margarito-Gomez and Castillo-Munoz were good enough for PPV but not for “regular” airtime."
