Andre Ward said in 2012 he'd fight anyone at 168 or 175

      Ward didn't want a catch weight because it would've been a much more competitive fight. Pretty easy to glean.

        No Excuses just common ***in sense and logic and not some dude with an emotionally charged opinion. Kovalev is not a big fight right now and certainly not bigger than a fight with Chavez Jr

          He's one of his 20 fans that showed up at his SportChalet meet and greet in his home town.

            Ward said this, GGG said that; is it boxing or a talk show?.

            Boxers have been talking crap since ages.

            Ali said he murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalized a brick;

            Somebody should make a thread about Ali ducking the lighting.

            In my opinion one should be more concerned about a talent like Ward being so inactive , semi retired almost, than wahtever crap he said back in 2012.

              Yes.

              Whenever I mention that Ward demanded Dawson weight-drain down to 168, someone says Dawson on HBO said he'd fight him at 168.

              So should Ward, by the same standard, be held accountable for what he said about fighting "anyone" at 175?

                There is no difference between ward and ggg saying they will do something and not doing it. Only tunney (and thuggery and some others) try to differentiate.

                  But the point of this thread is Andre Ward and his fans like yourself are always going on about GGG saying he'd fight anyone between 154 and 168.

                  It's hypocrisy when he says he'll fight anyone at 175, and then ducks Kovalev bashing Golovkin while calling out fighters from smaller divisions, saying they need to move up.

                  Ward isn't a very good Christian, remember "do onto others as you would have them do onto you"?

                      Andre Ward is a selfish prima donna who refuses to fight unless he had an advantage. He lacks a warriors' mentality.
