    I don't think that's in Ward's nature to be upset or annoyed by something like that. He's just a hard worker. He knows he keeps on winning, big money fights will come eventually. Kinda similar to Hopkins in that sense.

          ward's a family man. he probably could care less about fame. as long as he's champ and he's providing for his kids, i think he's happy.

            I suppose it could since he might never get a PPV fight because of it.

                Yeah I don't think acclaim is something he's after. You can tell both he and Virgil are extremely self-confident, bordering on smug, but he has little or no interest in blowing his own trumpet.

                Virgil always says that it's time enough to think about what they achieved when his career is over. And Andre always says that it's up to other people to call him great if they want, he wasn't raised to talk that way about himself.

                Sure it's a bit of an act on one level, but it does seem to resonate in everything else the guy says and does.

                  He'll get more of the limelight once Manny and Floyd retire no doubt.

                    he's pretty popular for today's boxers standards outside of Floyd and Manny.

                      I think it bothers him that his fan base aint like mayweather or broner cause he refuses to degrade himself to some blackface entertainment. We all know if he did those fan bases will be all on his nuts.
