Wow. I don't think he's worth that much, but ehh.. I'm just glad that Ward is getting back in the ring.

I hope more for his own sake he put's up a good performance in a fight i don't give him much chance in, because there are not many fight's out there in which he can earn this sort of money at this stage of his career.
A good performance (Even in a loss) could still give him good options after, in which HBO could stick with him. I just hope the money doesn't get to his head in which he thinks he deserves this sort of money in future fights.
Good luck Edwin.

to all the jokers who thought rodriguez should take the initial offer:
this is why you don't take the first offer. an extra 200K can buy you a house.
