Comments Thread For: Andre Ward Could Be The Next Boxer in Network Battle

[Dirk Diggler UK]

I said majority. Majority of people are upset it's happening 5 years later but we're still excited that's happening, and on fight night, you'll be too. Nothings perfect in boxing so you have to be happy with what you get.

No you dont. Thats exactly the kind of attitude that allows these **** fights to keep happening. You keep paying your money based on "being happy with what you get" and all you'll get is endless ****.

So, I'm supposed to stop supporting boxing because I don't get everything I want? If there was a way to stop it, I'd be right with you, but this is just the way it is. There's always going to be people spending money on tickets or watching on tv. Rather enjoy it, instead of dwell on it and be upset about it. I just spent 1400 dollars on 2 tickets to Mayweather/Cotto

Ward is not scared of Bute and with Ward's track record of late fighting dangerous top competition he should be given more respect. Ward is right letting a Bute fight build considering Bute was fighting c class opposition(with the exception of Johnson) while the rest of the elite 168 pounders were fighting each other. If Bute can beat Froch imo he then will be the opponent that should be on the top of Ward's list. Both men can take stay busy fights before their clash since Bute has one more fight that he has to take on Showtime.

Exactly. Some of the childish posts in this thread are mind boggling.

really? he's a great fighter but he doesn't have a big fanbase or is exciting

Exactly I much rather see someone like Giovanni Segura on tv..HBO needs to buy good fights not boring fighters

Ward ran the table at SMW in the super 6
not much left for him to do there unless Bute beats Froch
if that's the case, go where he has to go to get Bute
beyond that, just go for whichever network offers the most dough
Ward doesn't need that punk Bute anyway, it's just a good option
Ward's done enough work in his division to kick back and earn for a bit

going to hbo is a slick way to dodge a bute fight

[Mr. Philadel]

This ******* dont wanna fight Bute!

why do yall THINK that?!?....Dre EARNED his spot, noone PUT him there!!....if Bute would've dove in the tourney and swam with the sharks in infested waters instead of swimming with the dolphins in Canada's Wonderland....he'd have more say...as of NOW, Dre is dictating policy and '68....it is what it is!!

Or it's called getting paid. How much is Ward being offered for a Bute fight? A million, maybe 1.5 million? He can probably go to HBO and right off get 3 million for a much lesser fight.
