    Ward isn't as boring as Carlos Molina's clinching as.s or those Klitchko's you worship.

    Ward made the same money(if not more) fighting Rodriquez than Canelito just made against Angulo.

    Rodriquez got 800K..that's more than Angulo made.

    Ward isn't bitter about anything..he's perched at the top of his division....undefeated.

      You want Ward to move up away from GG...

      Ward would beat the brakes off Kovalev...if he's still around when Ward does move up.

        Ya'll want Ward to move up but not GG...what kind of crap is that?

        Trust me...

        You do not want Ward to move up...
        He would CRUSH Kovalev.
        Yeah i agree Golovkin should take risks but it dosen't seem like he will in his next fight so what should Ward do just wait around and hope that Golovkin or Froch or Chavez jr fights him? That's a bad business move, it makes him seem desperate. What he could do is take some risks and move up to fight guys that want to fight him, like Kovalev. That might strenghten his fanbase and bargaining position.

        He might win against Kovalev or he might lose but he will not crush him, for sure.

          Whatever Ward does or doesn't do is fine...He's EARNED it.

          At least he's not fighting bums of such low quality HBO won't even air that crap.

          Ward's last OPPONENT just made more than GG ever has....lol

          As for Kovalev....

          Ward would beat 7 shades of shi.t outta' that blabber mouth.....that's IF he's still around when Ward moves up...

            Ward needs a second job his first one is not paying enough and he keeps on losing work to less skilled foreign workers

              Wards opponent just made more than most of the foreign fighters you worship.

                Ward's boringness has the red k alts all ruffled and upset

                Unfortunately Triple G and Kovalev have nothing to do with Ward's boring clinch style.

                  Who is going to earn more money this year from boxing?

                  Froch or Ward?

                  GGG will earn more than Ward?

                  Ward will be luck if he can get a fight.

                  He might earn more as a commentator than a fighter.

                  Maybe if he stepped outside his back garden every now and again he might actually get a fight against a decent opponent.

                  And lets not try to drain any more light heavies

                    Sure Ward could do whatever he want's he is a man and can do his own choices but then he shouldn't act all bitter and insulted when other men do what they feel is right for their careers. If Froch fights Kessler or Groves or whatever and Golovkin goes for Chavez jr that's their choice.

                    Ward does bring less to the table but he feels entitled. Thats wrong, he aint't entitled to nothing cause most people don't want to see him fight. He is the greatest at 168, good for him, be content with that and let the other guys have their money.
