Comments Thread For: Andre Ward's June 20 Ring Return To Land on BET?

[////]

Ward's dad is white (Ward's very birth is a violation of BET code A902) so if he beats a a dark chocolate opponent we might see Ward in another 3 year legal hiatus.

black people dont care about ward, he is boring, he's just one of those fighters who isnt appealing to anyone

[Beercules]

BET?

[KillaMane26]

comicview > 106 & park > ward vs taco truck driver

I'm torn with this one. On one hand it's free and reaches a different demographic audience that's completely lost touch with boxing. On the other hand it's BET.... what will the production be like and what 106 & park hosts will be the commentators?? -_-

If he fights around the time of the BET Awards it could Work, BET Awards Draw HUGE RATINGS every year so maybe Ward and Roc Nation could grab some of that.

[Hougigo]

This is what he needs to be doing to come back instead of waiting for a premium network to somehow break down and buy his fight

[MasterPlan]

Perfect for another Fabolous performancr.

Imo that seems like a nice idea to build a bigger fans base and following for Ward, and it's free

How is a fighter known for holding and having a low punch count going to build a bigger fanbase?
