    Calm down. Why you mad cuz Calzaghe dominated Roy 11 rounds to 1?
    Like I said I DON'T CARE IF WARD FIGHTS IN EUROPE.

    Cazlaghe came over to the STATES and dominated America's P4P FIGHTER OF THE DECADE.

      Second, why should I give you more reasons? You already said that you don't want Ward to fight any of them since he already dominated them, then what's the point?

      And this is boxing my man, these guys are not punching each other in the head just for glory, but for money.
      Sometimes the fights are late at night, but there is no guarantee that would be the case in this instance.

      Like I said all you have is money. And I will say it again Ward wouldn't make more money fighting them in Europe then he could make here.

        They did those late fights for the super 6 so I'm pretty sure they would do it again for a big fight vs Ward.

        And again I just can't see Ward getting more money in the USA than in Europe vs Froch or Kessler.

        Ward made $1.3 million vs Dawson, so that's not really hard to beat.

        I don't think Ward is making over $1.3 million fighting freaking Kelly Pavlik.

            Ward doesn't have to go to Europe. He has proven he is the best at 168 and is the champion.

              i'd rather ward fight bute in canada if he beats froch, than beat two guys he already beat.

              so the only thing he gains is he beat both kessler and froch twice except once at home and then once at his home waste of time.

                Bute was undefeated in North America too. It takes balls to go to another continent to fight. Froch & Kessler proved that have the balls.

                I'd love for Ward to do that too. I know he's a brilliant fighter. But does he have the fortitude to win overseas?

                Seriously, defending him for NOT taking challenges is actually insulting him.

                  Is Kessler a better fighter in Europe? Is Froch a better fighter in England?

                  Do they magically gain better skills in their homeland?

                    But don't you realise he doesn't want to go? Ward has sounded anything but keen on moving up, wouldn't even meet Dawson at a catchweight, yet his options at 168 are sparse.

                    No offence, but these are silly questions. Are you even a sports fan? if you are, you should already know the answers (and the reasons teams and fighters want to compete at home).

                      Fighting in the US is like fighting at Caesar's Palace. Fighting in Europe is like fighting at the Emerald Queen Penny Slots.
