    Why isn't Andre Ward a big and famous PPV Superstar like Mayweather ?????

    Why isn't Andre Ward a big PPV Superstar like Mayweather

    He is undefeated but hardly anyone calls him out

    Hopkins and Golovkin keep on calling out Mayweather put do not seem interested in fighting or mentioning Ward.

    What is up with that???

    I'd be willing to pay ppv money to see the hometown hero fight.

      It might be because ward refuses to fight outside his home town. Oakland can't seat as many as the MGM or Madison square garden.

      He never calls people out but says they are ducking him.

      He never left his home for the super six. The only fighter who did so.

      It's been nearly a year now and he hasn't fought. He is really inactive.

      He claims to be humble yet behaves as if he is the best. While it may be true, we haven't seen him ever venture outside his home town let alone another country.

          Andre Ward is irrelevant his last best win was carl froch back in 2011 we already about to be in 2015 and he still have yet to face a decent opponent.

          he has 5 fans.

            Because he never got to fight and beat the previous cash cow.

            Thats how Floyd and Pacquiao became cash cows.

            You can become a cash cow if you are a KO puncher also but Ward isn't one.

              I guess his persona. He didn't getin this cocky , wannabe pimp image what Mayweather or Broner does. And I think this is right, he didn't sell himself just to get the simple fucks attention who just want rumours and scandals.

              Ps: the word "cock" is banned? Like... Seriously?

                Because there's no De La Hoya for Ward.

                  Doubtful, as much as I enjoy watching Ward he doesn't have a style that's appealing to the masses. Even Hopkins, who some have compared him to, was far more offensively gifted. I never expected Ward to be big, I do however expect him to have a very long reign.

                    naw thats not it, you cant demand the main stage when the best person on your resume has out done you every way since then.
