So, Ward wants 3 tune ups...

[From Russia]

and including Paul Smith thats 4 tune ups. Does this mean the fight with Kovalev gonna happen in 6 years? What about HW division? I remember Andre saying that he wants to be a HW champion, his own words, not from his team. I mean GGG gets tons of criticism because Abel Sanchez likes to talk ****, but GGG haters ignore the fact, that Ward himself (on ESNEWS) said that he would beat Klitschko.

You said GGG is coward because of the catch weight for the Ward fight, but he was willing to move up in weight and fight second best SMW without any tune ups in his hometown, in front of friggin 80 000 people LOL.

I personally think that Ward never gonna fight Kovalev, knowing his activity 3 tune ups is a lot of time. I heard that Ward had opportunity to fight on Cotto-Canelo undercard, but its only 5 weeks till the fight and we still dont know what Andre is doing...

My prognosis:

Ward has difficulties making weight, thats why he is moving up (not because he wants Kovalev or any other top LHW), but he still wants to fight bums for millions $ and tune ups are just an excuse. If Rock nation gonna try to force him to fight Kovalev after 3 tune ups, he gonna sue them, hahaha

I seen an article here like a week ago. It was about Ward-Kovalev, HBO deal and 3 tune ups at LHW.

A long time ago Ward used to fight the best fighters his weight and he won the super six tournament. Today Ward is managed by Haymon and he doesn't fight dangerous fighters anymore. He shouldn't need any tune up fights to move to 175. Light heavyweights fight the same way 168 pounders fight but they weigh 7 pounds more. A proven veteran like Ward should challenge a world title belt holder in his first fight at 175. I think Haymon will never let Ward fight Kovalev

Fkn morons around here. The latest news from the Ward camp (as in, yesterday) is they plan to fight Kovalev in 2016. That means, there's not going to be 3 tune ups. I know you guys are scared but you don't have to lash out with misinformation.

They've been doing this for years.

I dont think I have ever heard of someone needing 3-4 tunes ever before. I cannot believe Ward's fans try to defend this travesty.

Even Pacquiao after getting ktfo was back in the ring in less than a year,beating rios,Bradley,and algieri,all off which would be career best wins for alot of fighters at 147.
