Andre Ward To Mayweather: I'll Go 160 To Fight You

will ward accept the fight at 164 or duck?

Dagum to the rescue!!

He wasn't asking for a cw for froch or Chavez jr so don't ask for it for ward it's simple he looks like a pu$$y having his team ask for that against ward but was going all up to 168 for other guys

Again, lets not hold Ward to the same standard as Chavez or Froch. Hes actually more talented than those guys

Obvious troll is obvious. Surprised you found time to take a break from between Bute's legs.

Neither GGG nor Kovalev need Ward for their career right now, Ward is the one who needs them. There is no other fighter close to Ward's weight who could bring him the publicity and attention than a fight with either of those two would. GGG would make more money from a Froch fight and Kovalev would make more from a Stevenson fight. Ward is basically a nobody in boxing right now and he is the one who is in great need and he is a distant B side to either GGG or Kovalev or any active top contender today for that matter.

I think you have your head up GGG's ass. Hes not a star.

GGG needs Ward more than Ward needs GGG

If Ward retires today, hes a HOFer and one of the best super middleweights ever.

If GGG retires today he would be..... nobody really. A hype train who smashed tomato cans.

Lets not kid ourselves on who needs who more. Ward has a huge fight infront of him against Kovalev, which both sides have been dicussing already.

Ward is the big fight for GGG. Hes busy calling out smaller fighters, praying they fight him for a payday,just like Martinez did before him.

Ward is making 2 million fighting tune ups, he doesnt need GGG, and his legacy wouldnt suffer because a fighter refused to move up in weight to fight him. Your post was just silly.

I see now reason for this fight not to get made now

Ward was the A side and made Dawson go down in weight

GGG is the A side here and is making him go down in weight

I answered the question and said I would be willing to fight Floyd at 160 if that fight ever came about. -andre ward

yet he won't fight ggg at 164 if that fight ever came about? and at a 50-50 split? ward's a duck.

Fuck ALL catch weights!!

[bigjavi973]

I'm not being bias in anyway, 164lbs and 50/50 is fair to both fighters. They're meeting in the middle.

So 168 for froch & chavez jr but 164 for ward?

[HanzGruber]

Damn what a little statement about GGG does to NSB.. you can clearly see that GGG is the most talked about boxer in the world right now.

I would take Loefflers statement with a grain of salt though, he probably means since Ward can barely sell any tickets, has been very inactive and GGG is on top of the game, setting records and selling a ton of tickets everywhere he fights - if Ward wanted a 50-50 split now he would have to make a compromise and meet GGG in the middle. If ward can actuallly rise his market value and bring more to the table, they would meet at 168.

It's all totally irrelevant anyway if you actually read the interview since Ward needs another couple tuneups first.

These spin doctors are working overtime tonight lmao

I already said it, fight should be @168 50/50 split and neutral venue.

But I also think that Ward's team should answer this with a counteroffer :@168 50/50 in oakland. If they go silent, mmm I would see that as a plain duck.( by now)

I hope both camps start negotiations soon, I want this fight by the end of next year.
