I agree, that was some stand up sh.. from ward. I have always been a fan of wards. Some of these other fighters should take notes.

wow thats crazy..... he is truly is a religious man

[POOPGOSPLAT]

What an idiot.

[sicko]

No Surprise! When is Ward ever NOT Classy? He should be praised for not playing up to Stereotypes and making a Mockery of himself just to sell fights and become a bigger draw and make more money.

Lol, how can anyone honestly find fault in a such a kind gesture?

[twrx]

He figure the ass whooping was punishment enough. Props to ward though classy thing to do

[Willie_pep1]

Ward is a deep dude..great gesture by him

[SugarRayCurtain]

I think he understands Paul Smith situation
Hes a fallen fighter who was just inches away from being World champ but never quite got there, probably not of a lack of hardwork but sometimes you just gotta deal with the cards you've been dealt.
Hes no superstar unlike Andre Ward relatively speaking.

Ward is a human being and he understands hardship just like Paul.
Life goes beyond the ring, boxers are just people at the end of the day.

****** move. Smith did not honour his contract and Ward just approved it. This sends a bad precedent.

If Ward did not want the Money, he should have donated them to the Weight-Watchers instead.
