    ____________________________

    What do we have here? We have an alt who posted just 725 times since spring 2009...

    Therefore I suspect you are only trolling; because I don't think you don't have a clue about boxing -- e.g. when you watch someone who is dispatching Cloud after he floors him four time in less than 4 minutes...
    The above post is a perfect example of why it's close to impossible to have a rational conversation on boxingscene forums. You guys can just talk about rep power and other boxingscene forum stats, use hot button terms like alt and troll and totally ignore the topic of discussion and leave at that. It's like this place is more about a bunch of guys trying to bolster their egos by trying to win a petty bickering match than it is about the sport. I used to love talking boxing but the Internet is ruining everything. I hope you guys get what you want and run all of us so called "alts" and "trolls" off of the forums and it's only you and those that agree with you and think the same left for you to have a conversation with.

      I wonder if it will ever end for him. Goosen took what Ward did personal and according to people he talked too, wouldn't let Ward off the hook so easily.

      Just finish out the damn contract

          Legal battles always get personal. But at the end of the day it's business. Dan Goosen is in the spirit world now so any grudge that he held in life dissipated with his passing. Hopefully the new CEO's that are running Goosen-Tutor don't attempt to inherit the grudge.

              Yes, a world champion with an established and proven record for being a ducker. I have absolutely no reason to believe that this coward will not avoid such a matchup in future, especially when he has Al Haymon in his corner.


              If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, then it's almost certainly Adonis Stevenson.

                Calling people alts and trolls whenever they disagree with or question your sometimes wild opinions is quite offensive, actually.

                  Can he take Stevenson's best punches? Kovalev's? the biggest puncher Ward has been in with was Boone and he was dropped and arguably lost the fight.

                  I'm not convinced about his supposed prowess at 175 and he doesn't seem convinced either with his reluctance to move up.
                  I agree. Ward's clinching and spoiling tactics work for him at 168lbs because he is big and strong for that weight. At 175 his size advantage disappears and he is up against guys who are bigger and stronger than he is and hit much harder than anybody he has faced before.
                  The style and approach Andre used to defeat Froch and Kessler would be suicidal against Kovalev, Stevenson and Beterbiev, imo.

                    I can't have disagreements with alts and trolls -- just because they are what they are.

                      An established record as a ducker huh? One fight falls through and the guy has an established record as a ducker... Okay sure. So now you're betting the farm on a total no named fighter with six fights to be ducked some time in the future. I think sometimes you guys just get off on calling a fighter who is more successful than your fighter of choice a ducker. And the way that you guys have fixated on the scapegoat Al Haymon (the guy that the fighters love but promoters hate) is hilarious because I bet most of you wouldn't even recognize him if he were standing right next to you. It's going to come back and bite you on the behind when all of your favorite fighters end up with Al Haymon. What are you going to say then?
