Comments Thread For: Hearn: Andre Ward Couldn't Sell Out His Living Room!

[M Bison]

exactly and ward and people need to realise is that b side is bigger then the a side hed receive fighting anyone in the states and the reason is people pay to watch froch over here

money in boxing is not always spent on the best fighters

You have to earn your way up to the top...

Froch as much as I've grown off him he has done that Ward has NEVER done that...
You can mention the super six and what not but it doesn't matter, he comes across as a spoilt little brat and quite frankly that is not a good look or an endearing look to win you over to the masses.

Sure the colour of his skin will get some racists supporting him but he hasn't done enough to have the fan support from all over the world that the likes of a Hagler, Leonard, JMM or Pacquiao all have had.

Thats their reason for not fight ward again. Because they know a fight with ward means retirement the following day.

why would ward want to fight froch again????? he has already beaten froch with ease. move up and fight somebody. go to light heavyweight and win the title there. thats what he is supposed to do.

I kinda agree with ya post bro..except for the only racist supporting him and the Ward never earned his way to the top..

Ward has not done enough since doing a whole hell of a lot bro..Kessler was the top of the div when Ward outclassed him..Froch was the best SMW outside of himself when he outclassed him(even tho I felt Froch was coming on late)and Froch was my boy throughout that whole tournament..Yet I have to call it like it is..Ward beat Dawson and then I don't know what happened..He needs to move up or find somebody that the world will feel is creditable..I know he has promotional issues,but he can't let that stall his career any longer..It's almost killing it to be honest..

That's not what Ward wants to do. He has mentioned fighting Froch again as an option. If he wants to do so, he'll have to cross the ocean.

Or he could move up and be the A-side against Kovalev or Pascal. Ward's choice.

i was under the impression he wanted the froch fight again. maybe im wrong!

i dont see any option for him other than to move up, unless groves wins tonight he could fight him.

I kinda want Ward to fight Froch again,and I want him to have to cross the ocean..We all know Wards background on this subject,I wanna see how he deals with this kinda change..

I'd love to see Ward cross the ocean to fight the Froch/Groves winner. It would shut so many people up. He should at least have his people try and make that fight. They may not want it, but at least try.

I'm picturing Ward shutting up that crowd, and it's wonderful.

I actually believe it would put Ward in a fun fight for once..Esp if it's Froch,when Froch threw caution to the wind he actually did better against Ward tbh..Now imagine if Froch has his fans and family and the whole crowd behind him..He'd do that even earlier tbh..I'm not saying he'd win,but I think it'd be a much more exciting fight..

How is Ward far superior to Groves lol? Oh I get it...this is the Floydiot logic...you never have to take the fights...you just have to be the "slicker" fighter and we'll all assume you win the fight without actually having to take the fight, right? Or you'll give me some triangle theory on how Ward is better without actually fighting Groves... I got you... You guys are really great for boxing ... you never demand "your favorites" to take fights... because you can come online and just "Ward is superior to... insert fighter Ward never fought"

Hitting and clinching is not schooling...btw also...nice excuse about the shoulder and hand lol...

are you mentally ******ed? ward is superior to groves because his resume is far superior to groves'. he proved himself.

groves fought one wold class fighter and got stopped, he even lost to degale imo. meanwhile ward has dominant wins over froch, dawson, kessler, abraham and rodriguez. thats five one sided wins, each against a better fighter than groves' best win.

ward doesnt have to fight groves for the same reason he doesnt have to fight you or me, he hasnt earned it. or you reckon he has by being stopped by froch? maybe getting a controversial decision against degale (who hasnt beaten anyone himself) is what did it?

he may very well earn it very soon, but that remains to be seen which is what i wrote. lets see if groves can do something about it and beat froch to put himself in position to fight ward and beat him. am i supposed to just give him credit in advance? thats insanity.


for the record nobody said anything about floyd or being slick, throwing that in there just shows your lack of valid arguments and common sense.


short answer: ward is superior to groves because he proved himself at a higher level, try wrapping your feeble mind around that if you can.

edit: an excuse is used to justify some sort of wrong doing. pointing out that ward was injured when he beat froch isnt an excuse considering he had a tremendous showing. it just further stamps his dominance, which it truly does btw. beating a man with two injuries that severe is impressive, not that i expect you to have the common sense to comprehend that.
