Andre Ward vs. Rohan Murdock Nov 21 on Cotto/Canelo undercard

[M Bison]

Remember what I said with my top ten P4P's last night?
This is why Ward is number 1, you pick the hardest fights like Paul Smith and Rohan Murdock well this is why you become the best ever, GGG stay fighting soft opponents like Lemieux!

[The Hammer]

[B]Its called rebuilding your brand, and knocking off ring rust


I cant understand why people act like this man didn't have an injured shoulder, surgery, and promo issues the last few years


He paid his dues, we know he is world class but he is with a new company and has to make some new momentum to get big fights......duh

But that doesn't explain why he wants to fight an inexperienced kid who's never left Australia before.

Murdock isn't even from the southeastern part of Australia with the better boxing gyms and trainers, he's from Western Australia where there isn't much except desert.

Ward is taking advantage of an inexperienced kid.

There are plenty of veterans around 175: Gonzalez, Barrera, Agnew, etc.

Best not to engage in the back and forth. The Kovalev fight will happen next year then we will get our turn to laugh at these dudes and bump these threads.

I hope it does happen next year

I bet its a sigh of relieve for GGG fanatics that he may be removing up to 168.....pheeeeew

He wanna rebuild his name and legacy but he don't wanna call out DeGale?
But he fine with GGG coming up to 168 to fight him... WTF!?!?!
What is it then, was Ward talking BS when he said he wanted to fight GGG, did he want to set the GGG fight up but have 3 warm up fights?
Go on don't you be ducking these questions now.

This is boxing...we cant pick the fights whether we like them or not


Im just happy he'll be fighting for a change.....I always felt he was the heir apparent to Mayweather even before the super 6

He has the talent just needs to get ring rust off

[Chrismart]

That's an awful fight if true.

Or Ward is cashing out or his ppl are keeping him away from threats for some reason until Kov fight.

But this is scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

If this is true then I would hope he makes a quick turn around fight (first quarter of next year) against a respectable opponent.
