Comments Thread For: Andre Ward Still Mulling Final Decision on Weight Class

[AKAcronym]

Hmmm.....his team didn't seem that confident when asked. "Uhhmm.....errr....if the economics are right.....James isn't as big a name.....uhmmm"

Almost the same phrase RN CEO uses concerning Ward/GGG, yet I only see you ****ting on one team. Both sides agree that it needs to be built up to make things "economically right."

I really hate it for you that you waited until you were damn near 60 to start following boxing. Likelihood is you'll be pushing up daisies before you truly get an understanding of the sport. Better late than never I reckon.

I'm surprised you're not on his Ignore list. That's what he does. He admitted that I was stressing him out the other day. Don't want to give the old geezer a heart attack.

There will only be one. Either Ward - GGG or Ward - Kovalev. Because whoever gets Ward first sends him into retirement and he would never fight the other.



There are two ways a Kovalev fight will go. Either Ward tries to stand and fight and gets KTFO or Ward tries to dance and hold and he gets out boxed the way Hopkins did. There is no chance of Ward winning.

I figured you'd be in a Ward thread, here you are crowing about fans hating on GGG and you're in a Ward post with zero positive to say. Oh the irony, lol.



You say Ward will not fight after GGG lmao. You're hilarious man, seriously.

When and I'm not stating if, Im saying when Ward beats GGG he will have another defining win and this board will go up in flames that another would be elite fighter who has Floyd's beating has been defeated again. I'm convinced the only guys blinded by some **** ****** fantasy are the ones claiming GGG is the second coming and are just Floyd haters, hell bent on seeing the número uno lose, so desperate to see him lose theyre championing a 160 pound fighter who weighs that of a light heavy fight night.

You guys get so butt hurt at the mention of Ward as y'all know Ward whups his ass, you can't bare to hear a possibly match up mentioned, you be throwing names out like Kovalev stating Ward will meet his maker at this time, nonsense. Ward will fight Kovalev in due course, right after he's handled GGG. Don't fret, those fights are happening, only to your disdain in that order, unless GGG and Loeffler run for the hills.

I'm talking about DeGale. And a lot of promoters say it but GGG's team are the only ones who get a free pass for doing so. Ward apparently said he wasn't interested in DeGale next and you've have the Golovtards jumping in as if their man's promoter didn't say the exact same thing.

Ward apparently hasn't fought a live body in years but when has GGG EVER fought one is my question? Ward's tune-ups would be top 5 wins for him.

I know you are, which is funny that you always bring up Golovkin even when he's not being mentioned. But that's whatever. It's different for Ward saying he's not interested though because he is one of the only legit opponents in his OWN weight class. That's my only problem with Ward saying he's not interested next. If he's going to stay at 168, he has to fight someone credible. Who that might be next? Who knows. But it has to be someone worthy. Ward hasn't fought a credible opponent in years. And I'm not going to compare GGG's and Ward's resume because that's been beaten to death already. But Ward is the proven fighter; of course we are going to hold him in higher regards to competition. Ward had his tune-up. He doesn't need more. He's good enough.

I've been following boxing since I was a kid. I was at Leonard-Duran 1. I have former world champions in my circle of friends and acquaintances. I have sparred with two former world champions. I really hate to see snot nosed children who think that their opinion is the only one with any validity. Maybe they should take their mommy's teet out of their mouth for a change. I guess that's what happens when spoiled b**** think they know it all when they have seen and experienced very little of life.

I just find it ironic that it's always the same Golovtards who are having a go at Ward's resume and who Ward is fighting next whilst also desperate for him to move up to 175.

Well that's on them. I don't know if you're putting me in that category but I surely am not.

Anyone catch the Teddy Atlas radio show this week? He was interviewing Ward and asked him if he wanted to fight DeGale. Ward's reply was not really. Something about he didn't want to have to deal with the same BS that he had to deal with S6. Towards the end of the interview Atlas asked Ward for any names that he wanted to call out, Ward said that's not his style and Atlas promptly said well we know you're not calling out DeGale.

Sounds very interesting. Do you have any more info or know where to find his show by any chance? What did you make of it?
I said it before, DeGale will have the upper hand against Ward in the negotiation table and Ward will not want to travel to England.
I wonder what BS he had to deal with in the S6, it's not like he had to travel to a foreign country like everyone else.

Yep I wondered about that and hopefully Eastcoast will elaborate or post a link to the interview.
