Andre Ward not happy with losing his WBC title

[DoktorSleepless]

Boxing News 24 is a horrible website. Should not be linked.

Maybe they're preparing the title for Chavez jr..?

Dirrell faked injury to hide from boxing for a year and a half, Ward declined to fight Bute and to fight Dirrell......those guys are just stellar......products of media propaganda.

you dont sign contracts to fight when you have a broken hand waiting to heal, thats just common sense. with those type of injuries recovery time varies alot and i think ward never broke his hand before which makes it even harder for him to know when he will be ready again.

you wait, heal, get back to full training then you decide when your next fight will be. who signs a contract when they cant even throw a punch?

ward never said he wouldnt fight them, he just said he wasnt gonna fight them at that point in time. besides even if he wasnt injured ward earned the right to have some down time after the super six, hes been super busy and fighting nothing but top notch guys. he aint off to fight some bum hes recovering from an injury so cut him some slack.

how can you call him media propaganda when he beat almost every top s.mw in the world? he takes some time off to heal an injury and you act like hes ducking ppl and is all hype.

This ^ The other day, I believe on the 12, he talked about vacating and stated "Anthony Dirrel is like a brother", that it would be a good fight, but not one he wants to do.

Shrug. No Andre, No Anthony, and according to him, no Bhop as well. He's limiting himself.

It's actually hopkins who said he would never fight ward ....

Hopkins, meanwhile, told ******.com in December that he will never fight Ward, considering himself to be a mentor to the 2004 Olympic gold medalist.
"I would never fight Andre Ward. I would never fight him because, one of my favorite shows was Kung Fu. And, the master never fought the student, and the student understood that he would never challenge the master," said Hopkins.

I wanna see Ward take on Andre though. I was really looking forward to that one in the tourney. too bad it probably won't happen.

Serisouly, there's no reason to strip this guy. 4 months of inactivity, that's it?? Let him heal up correctly and get to it. I know it's been stated a lot on this site but WBC IS A JOKE!

There are 2 sets of standards 1 for privledged and 1 for those who aren't mexican if you don't like then fight for another organazation... do they pay more than the other belt sponsers???

Honestly, if I was Andre Ward I wouldn't care. The WBC is a completely fake title right now, and I just wouldn't care at all about hanging on to it.

Who knows.

This is a guy who thinks Bradley beating Abregu is a good win and Martinez beating Barker is a good win.

But Andre Ward, who just won the Super-Six tournament is media propaganda.

*** that Belt, but Chavez, and Canelo can do what every they want and the WBC will even go as far as making excuses for them, like they have done for Chavez Jr when it comes talk about fighting Martinez

then again I don't have a problem with it because Anthony Dirrell will get a shot at the belt, I think Dirrell vs Ward would have been TOO SOON, Dirrell haven't even fought anybody, it woud be extremely hypocritical if Ward tells Bute to fight somebody good before you get your shot and then he turns around and fight Dirrell who haven't fought anybody either and who's Resume is worst then Bute at the moment (not disrespect to Dirrell because I am a huge fan of the Dirrell Brothers)

*** The WBC!

Hmmm okay? WBC has gone lame...

Mathed is on crack and he's mad because deep down he knows his boy Bradley is gonna get whooped and his career will never be as good as Ward's.
