I think ward should retire and concentrate more on his commentating fights on hbo!

Like most murican boxers today, the aint boxing for pride, the are boxing for money and fame, and a soon as the get that, the lose the fire.

That is what I like about the 3 argentinian horsemen, the are in it for the pride

The moves hes making now just make me think hes in the sport to just get signed with other companies not to get money for boxing itself.

A fighter's chief concern should be self-interest, their time and dedication to the sport naturally enhance boxing.

He'll fight when Jesus tells him to, and not a day before.

Saw an interview the other day that said a possible Sept return might happen

You really don't sound like a Ward fan. He fought his way to the top of his weight class and he is considered one of the two best fighters in the world by most fans and experts. He can make over a million dollars a fight even with his fan unfriendly style. I am sure he will fight in Vegas with a good offer but he won't go to England to fight Froch and I don't blame him. For him to retire when he just now reached the top would not make sense. He should cash in on his hard work and success and make some serious money and then retire.

Ward doesn't strike me as the type of person who wants to stay in the sport for a very long time. I take it he'll probably retire around 32-34. He seems like an extremely family oriented person and if that's the case his health is of up most importance to him, plus we never hear about him having any financial issues so I take it he's being smart with the money he's earned. He probably follows Hopkins financial advice and invests his money in pretty safe stuff like bonds and index funds.

I'm friends with his financial adisor, he has a lot of money in10 year Greek bonds. Look at the yield curve for those. Risky!

He doesn't seem to live a flashy lifestyle when I watched all access, he has a normal house and car etc so he looks like he'd be alright after retirement

Why is Ward gettting all the hate lately? I dont understand.

Why is Ward gettting all the hate lately? I dont understand.

Because he's a master technician and at the top of the sport

[cornholioda3rd]

He's not fighting enough. A man of his boxing calibre should be fighting more than once a year. When people see Ward fight again, they'll be reminded of his dominance and skill.

[shade darkar]

Do you think this is a bit of an overreaction? You want the second best boxer on the planet to retire because he isn't moving at the speed or direction you want him to? And you're a fan?

nobody mentioned marquez??

iv said it time and time again, there is no way ward should be rated better than JMM.
