Comments Thread For: Ward-Rodriguez: Rules Issue Places Fight in Jeopardy

[Porter's Dad]

Why's all your criticism falling on ward? What about the unprofessional levels of the guy in your avi?

Ward has every right!

It pains me to say this but if Broner misses weight against Maidana, these same faqqots would be crying for Broner to forfeit the whole fee. Again, people giving an opinion on a matter solely based on their like/dislike.

While I empathise with the idea that maybe Edwin just simply outgrew the weight - if he isn't punished accordingly, you're going to get more situations of fighters who "outgrew the weight" like Mikey Garcia against Juanma, Broner against Escobedo etc. And we'll keeping her sob stories about how they couldn't close their fist, they couldnt spit/piss etc. Which may well be true....but this simply isn't fair on the other fighter who did make weight.

I don't like boxers who put their lives on the lines getting penalty hits when they are already giving so much of their fees already. But I don't like the other fighter getting screwed either.

Andre Ward is not the problem here.

45%! Yikes! This move by Ward shows me they are insecure though. To me Ward is a fraud and I'm being completely honest... he won the Super Six okay but against who really? A bunch of okay fighters (Abraham, Bika, Green, Kessler) who he couldn't even knock out. And Froch, let's be real. The guy's style is extremely robotic. I find it very hard to give this guy the credit some do.

And who exactly has Golovkin beat sir? Slick mayweather-like Proska? Deadly power puncher Rosado? Granite chin Ishida? Tough as nails Macklin? That brutal slugger Stevens? All deadly fighters.......

What's wrong with Ward tryin to get the most money he can. If. Rodriguez made weight this wouldn't be an issue. Not Wards fault! He using a rule to try and get the most he can out of it.

Instead of hatin on Ward why aren't people givin Rodriguez **** for not makin weight.

If It was Floyd doin this it would be considered "a good business decision", but since it's Ward he's gettin hated on. Makes no damn sense!

Could you imagine if Ward missed weight lol.
I think Ward should get all he can, like Rodriguez did in negotiations get that money off him lol ****er broke the rules after talking ****

What do contracts signed by "professionals" say when you do not live up to your end of the deal? I swear some of you so called boxing fans need to not comment at all. If Ward missed weight and Rodriguez wanted his 45% you guys would be on Ward like white on rice.
