Comments Thread For: Team GGG: Ward Not The A-Side, Can't Dictate Terms

[Scipio2009]

Ward can easily say 250,000 buys is probably no better than being the opening fight for 1 million + buys. Ward will be getting a lot more exposure than GGG headlining or not.

Added caveat is that Ward is being spoken of as the chief support for Cotto-Canelo, a stage a bit higher up than simply opening up the PPV broadcast.

the thing is ward had no problem letting dawson drain himself down from 175 to 168.ward fans like to act like that was a great win it was not.these same fans don't want ward to go down to 164.

Dawson was the one who clamored to take on Ward at 168, so no need to ignore that now.

Team Golovkin ran their mouths about wanting to see any fighter 154-168, and Ward simply retorted come see him at 168.

not his fault that Team Golovkin turned *****

ward has never sold out anything not even in oakland. get real

.... Ward fights out of Oracle Arena, an 18k-seat venue in his hometown.

Golovkin has never drawn even $600k for a gate, let alone the $700k that Ward has seemingly done three times.

Ward said that he'd drop to 160 for Mayweather but won't drop to 164 for GGG? That sounds kinda bitch to me.

I already looked up the stats and GGG outsold Ward's largest crowd on 3 occasions.

GGG-Rubio did 9,233 at Stubhub in Carson, CA and Ward-Abraham did 5,311. That's right in Ward's own backyard too.

Dawson said he'd come down to 168 and GGG said he would move up to 168. In fact, he nearly did for two fights but not Ward. So Ward is a b*tch for holding guys accountable?

Ward said he would "fight anyone at 168 or 175"

it doesn't matter its still ward's home country.froch was the visitor.ward had home advantage america is one huge country don't compare it to european countries with many different countries and languages.

... Yet Froch couldn't fight Ward in London? gtfoh

[Scipio2009]

They're different countries you moron, it's not the same as travelling from Cali to jersey, regardless of distance.

You act like New Jersey and California are the same. America has few "national" fighters.

How is it actually different?

[GMAN SUPREME]

Comparing the numbers for an entire night of fights to the isolated numbers for a single fight, lol.

gtfoh

your a ****** bradley blows ward away in the ratings.people watched to see bradley in the main event.ward's fight on bet bombed

Ward said he'd fight Mayweather at 160, only after Floyd dissed him for backing his friend, Robert Guerrero, dismissing even the idea of the fight shortly thereafter, when he got an opportunity to chill out.

try again
