        I think he was referring to Garcia with that comment, If you watched the post fight Mayweather went out of his way to hype Garcia up, Ward was Mentioned after a reporter brought up his name.

        It caught me off guard with those comments since both fighters are suing their respective promoters. Could be a coincidence but I dont think so.

        Pure speculation on my part but it seems if everything goes right Mayweather/Haymon/Shaeffer are tryi g to build a UFC model for boxing where most of the legitimate big draws will fight under 1 banner, It's still going to take years for it to come to Fruition but this is what I think they're trying to do.

          that would be the worst decision they ever made.

          you see how greedy floyd is with the purses. him getting 30million+ while maidana got only 1million.

          mikey would be making far less if he joined TMT.

              Ward still doesn't have a "good adviser" -- I could bet he's going to sign soon with the only adviser in the U.S.

                Andre Wards manager J Prince is Floyd's old manager from early on in his career. I wonder how that would play out?? I believe Ward should be much bigger than what he is, especially being a Gold Medalist. I'm surprised he isn't more of a household name thus far in his career.

                  That maybe true, but Goosen didn't violate Ward's contract that is why he keeps losing on his lawsuits. Ward can't opt out of a contract that he signed to unless Goosen violated the contract.

                    That's pretty ****ty promoting for a P4P fighter.
                    Didn't Ward make like 1-2 mil to fight Rodriguez? That ain't bad

                    I don't blame him for wanting to leave though
                    I think he's gone as far as he can with Goosen

                      I was thinking that too. Seems like that could present some problems

                      He really should be bigger. If I were him I'd go to GBP at this point. Then again I'm sure he wants to but can't
