With a deal in place to challenge light heavyweight titleholder Sergey Kovalev in the fall, Andre Ward will jump into the division with a 12-round fight against Sullivan Barrera on March 26.
That fight was supposed to be Ward's first bout of a three-fight deal with HBO. However, because the fight was canceled, Ward's team and HBO have battled over whether the March 26 fight is the first fight of the deal or the second. HBO's position was that March 26 is the second and that the third fight should be the one against Kovalev. Ward's position is that since the November bout did not happen, March 26 should be the first fight, and he should get a second fight, and the accompanying seven-figure payday, before facing Kovalev.Comment

Can somebody help me find that thread of people su****ious of GGG and Lemieux for agreeing to testing for their October fight in September even though the fight was signed in July? Yea, I can't find it either.Last edited by about.thousands; 02-11-2016, 09:46 AM.Comment

So Ward a guy who is not super fast, doesn't have outrageous punching power, not known for having outstanding stamina, isn't known for brute strength, or just eating power punches like its nothing is on the juice. Add to that Ward doesn't comeback from injuries super fast.
So what is the juice actually doing for Ward then?Comment
