Comments Thread For: Video: Andre Ward on His Contractual Issues, Future

[Hougigo]

He spoke on fighting although the lawsuit is going on, but said the 4 names mentioned were steps backwards for his career.

I would say sitting around doing nothing is a leap back

Well he is right because lets be honest, fans wouldn't give any of those guys a chance again Ward I know I wouldn't so why in the hell would they tune in. He is a nice classy guy, he don't talk trash or anything so Casual Fans are just looking past him

Ward need Groves to win against Froch...he needs somebody new to emerge as a threat to his crown at 168, if not MOVE UP and with Stevenson gone from HBO Target the guy they are hyping up right now at 175 Sergey Kovalev

Do what Lennox Lewis did, Lennox came to the US and just destroyed everybody that HBO was hyping up from Michael Grant to David Tua so maybe he does have to travel to the UK and take out Froch AGAIN in his Back Yard, Kessler in Denmark and George Groves in his backyard. A robbery would only make them look bad not him, leave no doubt like Terance Crawford did against Ricky Burns and I don't think he has to worry about Robbery or anything like that

That goes hand in hand with rumours I heard last week of Ward pricing himself out of a Kessler return.

I think this is like the 100th time that you have alleged Kessler's team made generous offers that were turned down by potential opponents.

Yet there has never been a single reputable source to confirm your Kessler fairy tales.

Where did you read these rumors? Apparently, Ward is saying that Dan never made offers or that Dan himself didn't feel the offers were adeqaute. How does that equal Ward pricing himself out?

That if Ward was to get paid what he demanded, there wouldn't be enough left to pay the dane. Ward was said to have demanded so much that there would have been less than a million left for Kessler.

Only vague rumours obviously which is why I haven't made a thread about it. Whatever. This confirms that there at least has been talks.

You must mistake me for someone else.

"WAS SAID" PROVE IT SHOW LINKS or something?

[BattlingNelson]

Then who can he fight?

Ward is clearly overestimating his worth. Probably based in the ridiculous sum HBO paid for the Rodriguez fight.

If he thinks taking one of those four fights offered is a step back, surely he must honk sitting back for so long is just as bad

You are not gonna get any more than that.

He got was it 2M for Rodriguez? I guess he thinks he can comand more for his mando (Kashtonov). I wouldn't know if HBO is prepared to Shell out that kind of dough, but I doubt it.
