        If the crux is that Leonard got ripped off, why is Ward suing him? Just drop the lawsuit and let Leonard sue Goosen.

            You guys need to read the article, it explains why Ward has been trying to break ties with Goossen.

            In short, Goossen and Antonio Leonard of TNT Promotions were co-promoting Ward and splitting the profits. When Ward resigned with the two of them in 2011, they split the money but only Goossens name was on the contract because Leonard didn't have a cali license, with the understanding that he would be added to it once he got one. They have emails between Goossen and Leonard agreeing to do so.

            Once Leonard got one, Goossen declined to add him to the contract and stopped sharing the profits with him.

            Thats Leonard and Wards side of the story at least, and Ward thinks Goossen is being a shady mother****er and is standing by Leonard.

            Personally I always thought Goossen was one of the more honest promoters, but what do I know?

              What fights has he killed?

              Ward is raising his hand and telling Golovkin "I'm here, let's do it." If GGG chooses Sergio Mora instead then that's on him.

                "Wolf Tickets"?? Go back to your MMA sites because boxing is over your head. It's general knowledge that Ward will wreck Golovkin. Get excited and talk sht. You'll be jumping bandwagons again soon.

                  By the way it sounds; If Goosen wants to deny a verbal agreement, then the only way to help Leonard is for Ward to break the original contact. It would be more difficult for Leonard to just sue without substantial evidence in his favor.

                    GGG has unfinished business at 160. He was willing to go up to 168 to fight JCC Jr because it was gonna be on PPV and would've been a huge payday

                    Ward vs GGG won't be on PPV and the risk isn't worth the reward

                    GGG should fight the winner of Martinez vs Cotto
