Why is Andre Ward wasting his prime? What is his problem?

[Dr Rumack]

He's really rolling the dice with this lawsuit against Goossen. If that doesn't work out it'll be a spectacular fuck-up on his part.

[The Hammer]

Ward is obsessed with making bigger purses and fighting on PPV. He's been utterly transparent about this for the last several years.

1: He thinks he's better than what he really is.
2: He doesn't sell.

Pretty much this....that arrogance will get you every time.

[boliodogs]

He always fights at home doe!!!

Goosen should get more credit for being able to secure Ward all of his super six and other fights at Ward's hometown. Ward has been a diva for too long and he isn't even getting paid. **** him!! I know promoters are scum but Goosen has done a good job with Ward.

You're right, Goosen did a great job of keeping Ward's fights in California where he got very favorable treatment from the referees.

2: He doesn't sell.

1. is false he is the main man, the best fighter at 168 hands down could probably whip everyone at 175 too.

2. This is true and the problem, he has no star power and can't sell out an event in his own living room, he is just not a draw but seems to think he is.

Heres the thing with ward, he is boring, and it would be very hard for him to be a draw. BUT it is possible for him to draw, if he stays incredibly active. He is very talented and people could eventually accept him even if he is boring just by seeing him beat so many people. But being inactive? Impossible for him to get popular. He has fought twice...in 2 in and half years, that is awful. He is doing the exact opposite of someone in his position should be doing

[Showtime..]

Poor Ward doesn't have the charisma of a Mayweather or the fighting style of a Pacquiao to become a big enough draw to justify the pay days he wants.

He's wasting his prime years and is probably gonna show slippage due to inactivity, people are already forgetting about the dude, casuals will lose interest, he's not the draw he thinks he is.

Ward should be a man and fight Froch, Groves, Stevenson, Kovalev, and fighters around his range that can draw. Ward will get rubbed off on by their star power

[Death's Head]

Better then what he is?? is talent can not be questioned... He may feel he is underpaid and want to go his own route..others have done this and made a killing, (Floyd, Oscar)..

lmao those guys can actually draw more than 20 people, tho

Haha, can't blame Ward for wanting more money to do a job he loves right? I hope it works out for him in whichever route he goes.

This guy ****** or something?
Stop wasting your prime Andre. Get that money.

He's gonna be broke and living off Church Fundings at the rate it's going.

SMh.

He seems to be going the Winky Wright route
