Ward and Froch had to basically travel the same distance to get to Antlantic City, NJ (Froch traveled 1000km farther).

Originally posted by GMAN SUPREME View Postbradley's win over marquez is better and his resume is better than wards overall. stop trying to discredit bradley's win over marquez by saying he's old.
Other than KTFO6, Marquez has done absolutely nothing at welter.
It was still a good win for Bradley.
Marquez was NOT the second best welter on the planet, or even close.
Froch was the second best SMW when Ward beat him.
Froch was in his prime, and on top of his game.
Froch is a better win for Ward, than Marquez was for Bradley.
Bradley is much more suited to welter than Marquez.
Overall, Marquez > Bradley, no question !

Originally posted by mathed View PostJust so long as you don't say that the Floyd win over JMM was more legit than Bradley's was because that would just not be right.
Marquez looked like a fish out-of-water against Mayweather.
There was also the weight re-negotiation incident.
He was better prepared for Bradley, and not much more faded.

Originally posted by Jubei View PostI see no one cares bout Ward except when his name is mentioned in conjunction with GGG. Team GGG just answering questions here. I wonder when Ward is actually getting back in the ring, will it be a total bum again?
But I think it will likely be at 170.
All 9 of us Ward fans are really looking forward to it

Originally posted by mathed View PostBradley takes on the tough fights, has been in 3 PPV headliners, has already moved up in weight and won titles in addition to getting paid top money. He has marketed himself as a blue collar boxer willing to put in the hard work to reap the rewards and has created a good number of fans over the past couple of years because of his attitude and work ethic.
Ward has an arrogant feel about him and his actions during fight negotiations lend total credibility to that assumption. His demands show an elevated sense of self importance and value. Yet his "numbers" are atrocious, certainly not worthy of the demands that he puts on the table time and time again.
Bradley vs Vargas pulled in 1.228MM views (LINK) while Ward vs Smith pulled in a paltry 323K (LINK).
Feel free to decide for yourself who has more fans.

Team Golovkin drool all over themselves for fights at 168 against Froch and Chavez Jr, yet turning ***** when anyone mentions Andre Ward took that card from them.
no need to lie.
