Comments Thread For: Andre Ward Applies Pressure on Edwin Rodriguez

[Weebler I]

Go ahead and give the guy 1 mil and make the fight happen.

They're probably doing that, well 900k anyway.

[Le Petit Prince]

You're damn lucky you're being offered $800K. The hell?

I'll drink to that.

Pressure on Rodriguez but a big gamble by Ward. What if Edwin really does believe he has other options and takes them? It wouldn't be the first time any boxer has walked away from a major payday. That means Ward is shelved again and if he wants to keep that November date its going to be against someone else less capable then Edwin.

edwin is a decent fighter but no way does ward need him. let edwin fight bika for way less money and its no guarantee he beats bika. bika is very strong has good chin and has fought way better competition. if edwin believed in his skills he would've took the fight in a heart beat this is a huge chance for him to put his name on the map

Forget edwin

Move on and fight kessler or bute who are available

I don't recall ever seeing a top p4p fighter get so little love from the industry. Since when does a fighter like Rodrigues who's mostly fought on ESPN, get to call the shots against a proven talent and champ.....only person that seems to be disrespected more than Ward is Rigo.
