    Wait, so is Ward still fighting on the Canelo-Cotto undercard?

      To get a credible opponent 3 weeks before fight night is going to be a challenge. If Ward has to be left off the card, Roc Nation dropped the ball big time; embarrassing. But ultimately Ward accepted the choice of opponent. This falls on his shoulders too.

      If you're supposedly a top P4P fighter co-headlining a PPV card, tune up or not, being blatantly selective like this reflects badly on Ward. I'm surprised HBO didn't nix the fight before NSAC interceded. There had to have been a more competitive LHW, if not an acceptable SMW contender to share the ring.

      Bottom line: if you need a crap tune up then you shouldn't be ranked #1 P4P let alone receive $2 million for it.

      I think Ward's sense of entitlement is off; it's hurting his career.

        Ward will have an even greater advantage over his mismatched opponent now, who will only have a few weeks to train against someone that will beat him anyways...

          Andre Ward has lost more than $10 million in purses-good

          Andre is just a clueless kid uneducated and dumb and getting poor advice from dimwits who like Ward have vastly over inflated Andre;s net importance to boxing. Ward has few fans and Andre is an unknown in America. Ward has no career and Boxing is fine without Andre Ward. Ward and Kirkland are idiots.

            Everyone seems to constantly talk about GGG. He is the talk of the forum. Him and Gonzalez, because they are highly rated and unproven vs elite fighters, especially Golovkin. The forum needs balance.

            I talk about GGG in threads made about GGG, not once have I made a GGG thread. My last thread was about the popularity of Ali, Tyson, May and Pac and how the general public only knows those 4 names.

            The forum as a whole however, only talk about GGG and Ward. You see GGG fans making threads about Ward. I have ot help in keeping it balanced. It just can't be an overwhleming amount of GGG ****riding and Ward bashing without anyone opposing or criticizing.

                  i dont agree with the two tune ups. it should just be one and then kovalev.

                  he needs somebody that can test his chin, because kovalev is the ultimate chin checker.
                  Ward/Pascal would definitely be worth watching!!!

                    Wait, was Pascal's last fight at 168? Because if not, Ward and his team are going to have a problem with that.

                      Ward has become impossible to work with, if I was hbo the only way he fights on my network is if Roc Nation pays half his fee at least.

                      Roc Nation and Ward are clueless about his actual worth.
