Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: I Don't Owe Explanations For My Opponents!

[-PBP-]

Ward and Kovalev are probably going to probably get a career payday. It's not Mayweather-Pacquiao but how is that not a big money fight for them?

Today it's not. Ward hasn't been on HBO since 2013. Kovalev does like 1 mil in viewership give or take which is average give or take.

Nobody knows who these guys are. How will it sell? Nobody is going to pay them just because they are good. Tix and PPVs need to sell. Go to a sports bar and ask 10 people who Ward and Kovalev is. I bet you'll get 0 response rate. If these people aren't buying the fight who will?

Of course it is today because merit alone would get them a career payday. Kovalev and Ward's guaranteed purse this fight would be more than what they've made before, even with the uncertainty surrounding it. And maybe if it does end up botching, maybe we should all blame Ward for thinking he can pick whoever opponent he wants.

Triple Gay, my bad, I mean Triple G owes ALL OF US (sane boxing fans) explanations for his oppononents and his refusal to make certain fights...


Ward is tuning up and aiming for Kovalev (no need for explanations)


Self-explanatory

Exactly , GGG owes me about 26 separate explanations from various Cans who's names I can't even remember . I guess he's mailing it in .

Many of my fellow Ward fans are perplexed by the hypocrisy and double standards by which GGG fans operate from . How could they even part their lips to complain about Wards one or two Cans in a row and in the same breath justify ggg's perpetual soft-serve ???

Here's you answer ;

Ward Haters vehemently wanna see him lose , so they need him to fight a tough prospect EVERY TIME so that there's at least a chance for an upset . If Ward fights someone who (like Smith) has no chance at an upset , his detractors will anger , poke , prod , whine , complain , defame and cry incessantly like they do day in and day out .

Meanwhile GGG may gracefully fight as many cans as his little heart desires
All because they enjoy seeing him win , so even perpetual soft serve will suffice and is probably preferred . This is where the double standard becomes apparant and where they become delusional as they believe (like the emporer's new clothes) that their hate-inspired machinations arent visible .

Eat ****, crybaby.
