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

[F!x]

Andre Ward should denounce Jesus, set a bible on fire, piss in a church and change his alias to Sick of Gods. Then he'll be the PPV king within 1 year max.

Or Sodomiser of Goats. That'd get people's attention.

Why does Hearn care so much about Andre Ward?

His boxer got his tush handed to him and Ward had one hand.

Just be happy Froch is an amazing draw who will make great money. You don;t have to bring up Andre Ward.

If it's cause Froch wants a rematch, then offer Ward a purse he can't refuse with all the money you draw. If you want to make the most money, then fight someone else and quit bringing up the name of a boxer you lost clearly too.

One of the fans asked him.

On the contrary Ward has done extremely well at the Oracle Arena by typical standards in the US boxing market. I've been greatly surprised at his ability to draw all factors considered. Especially for how boring he's been at times.

americans don't draw big gate numbers. they make their money from TV. a very select few make big gate money in vegas, and they're often not even american. think pacquiao, marquez, canelo, etc. cotto in new york.

ward is a very good draw compared to most of his american peers.

Yeah, I absolutely agree. I wrote it in this thread already: Ward is a big draw, his last match against Edwin Rodriguez peaked at 1,2 mllion view, and 1,2 million views not a bad number, soever try to interpret the haters...
And Froch-Kessler II was peaked at 1,1 million, that's not a bad number at all, but wait a minute... Isn't it lesser than 1,2 million? Oh yes it is! And Kessler is clearly a bigger draw than Rodriguez. So Ward is now, not only better than Froch but he is the bigger draw or minimum as big as Froch.
But keep cryin haters that not your gladiator is the best at 168, but the guy who schooled him year ago.

What are these viewing figures from? HBO? Any links?

Oh ok so an American fighter got bigger viewing figures at primetime on an American network by 0.1 million over a Brit and a Dane? As you Yanks would say "Well shucks, gosh golly I'll be damned!"

Froch-Kessler II was a PPV fight in the UK and Denmark.
