    Why does most people here gives ward a pass

    He ask Dawson to go down
    Now he want ggg to move up
    Most of his fights must be in his hometown

    It's not like I mind about ggg going up to fight ward but ward seems to always be the one challenging and demanding

    Ward and his team continue bringing up a middleweight, as opposed to looking up to Stevenson, Kovalev, Pascal or Hopkins.

      good point

      my prediction is they all avoid each other...everyone thinks preserving your 0 is the be-all and end-all but its not.

      ward will move up once stevenson is older. he is 36 already.

      ggg will move up when ward isnt at 168 anymore.

        Although smart business-wise - he still isn't getting a pass from me...I'm not a fan of his decisions nor his demands during the negotiations.

          Dawson volunteered to move down in weight. That was solely Dawson's fault.

          Ward does fight in California a lot. There's really no dis*****g that. I would like to see him face Stevenson in Canada. That would be a nice event.

            When you take a close look at the situation, you will realize it is mostly trolls who exalt Ward.

            He is a good fighter, no question about that, but to hold him as one of the greatest in our era is not an educated opinion. He fought a drained Dawson, a drained Rodriguez who looked like Christian Bale in The Machinist... you can say his best win was against Froch who is a very robotic fighter, and I like Froch by the way so no disrespect intended towards him.

            Once he decides to fight real opposition at their weight, he will soon face the harsh realities of the sport and the classes that divide it. Golovkin would smash this clown.

                I think unfortunately people just don't care about Ward. He has few fans therefore doesn't get the hate other popular fighters receive.

                  I dont think most people here gives him a pass. Ward gets heat in almost every single possible thread.

                    He did clean out his whole division though so he's got that.
