Comments Thread For: Abel Sanchez Not Viewing Andre Ward's Inactivity as Advantage

[bug0092]

Nowhere in that article does it say they had a meeting at HBO and Ward turned down the fight. Keep searching! That rumor came from that fake GGG interview with that russian site. Ward denied it and Loeffler and GGG never said it again.

You've got reading comprehension problem compounded with a bad habit of putting words in other people's mouths. I never claimed that particular article substantiated the HBO meeting. It does clearly indicate that Loeffler presented HBO with a list of potential opponents that included Ward. Once again here is the article...

http://www.latimes.com/sports/sportsnow/la-sp-sn-andre-ward-boxing-gennady-golovkin-hbo-tom-loeffler-20150915-story.html

I did, however, present you with a tweet from Loeffler's own account that confirmed the initial interview in the Russian. NO ONE has ever disputed anything said in the Russian article. Ward never denied it as far as I know. If he did, I'll reconsider my position. But, if you want to play fair, then the burden of proof is on you. Link please....

That is completely false.

Neither Sanchez nor Loeffler have ever said that Ward didn't deserve a fight with Golovkin because of his inactivity.

Virgil Hunter said that Ward would need a couple of tune-ups first, but you conveniently forget to mention that.

Why does your argument center around back when Ward WAS inactive ?

Team Ward approached Team Hypekin TWICE after that.

I guess you conveniently forgot those other times ?


“We get a lot of heat from Ward fans because we were willing to go to 168 pounds to fight Chavez and Froch, but that was before Golovkin had a bona-fide star (Alvarez) to fight in his own division,” Loeffler said..... Loeffler believes Ward has the potential to be that kind of star rival for Golovkin, AFTER the Californian gets back into a regular fighting schedule and beats a high-profile opponent (such as Kovalev).".....

"Ward may have won the Super Six but has done nothing since, in fights or in publicity, to enhance his marketability," said Sanchez......

"But Andre needs to fight, to fight to be relevant..... just because he won the Super-6..... doesn't make him qualified for these kind of fights".....

So why link the article when I asked you to show me Loeffler said there was a meeting with HBO, GGG, Ward and Ward turned down the fight? Ward told Loeffler to stop lying to the fans and Loeffler, GGG, Sanchez never mentioned a meeting at HBO again. GGG was lying when he said that meeting happened that's why that was the first and last time anybody from GGG's camp ever brought it up!

The spin in this thread will be funny as fook.

And it fkn well has been LMAO


You are a hopeless, shameless, fanboy, kafkod


You couldn't lie straight in bed SMH

[nacho daddy]

Ward needs to be attacked hard and dirty by elbows and low blows and pokes to the eyes and stepping on Wards feet, head butting and tripping the undefeated Ward.. That's how you beat a slick fast talent like Andre Ward. kids like Ward don't like it rough and usually back away from punishment and dirty tactics. Barrera is no pushover and should challenge Andre with a tough fight. But again Ward is in Oakland at home so look for a Ward. win.

exactly and kovalev can savage him that way before the KO. notice how ward was "injured" a lot when younger but now he is older and OK?

[bug0092]

Ward denied it happened and told Loeffler stop lying to the fans and Loeffler tried to blame Sanchez. Since then you never heard Loeffler, GGG, or Sanchez speak about a meeting with HBO and Ward turning down the fight.

Ward denied the HBO meeting? Again, show me proof...

K2 hasn't spoken about the HBO meeting because there's no need to in their universe. You see, they don't sit around all day like you to try to formulate talking points as to why their fighter who's working his butt off to build his brand isn't ready to bow to the demands of another fighter who's barely set foot in a ring the past two years. They are busy negotiating fights that can actually happen. If they read these threads, they'd likely get a good chuckle at the amount of time and emotional energy spent on this topic. You're wasting my time here with your nonsense.

Right, so Ward is too inactive to fight Golovkin, but Hopkins is not.....

..... and yet, Ward is NOT too inactive to fight Kovalev.

Right ?

I never made one post about mental wards lack of fighting.

[aboutfkntime]

Not only that, Loeffler just said Hopkins is a more attractive fight because he's been more active than Ward. Hopkins hasn't fought in a year and a half and by the time the fight would be made Hopkins would have been out for 2 years. Ward would have fought twice in one year. It's always an excuse when it comes to Ward.

Get this......

I have never heard a promotional company use inactivity as an excuse NOT to make a fight. You take advantage of those situations. You jump on them.

They wanted inactive Froch, they wanted inactive Martinez, they wanted inactive Hopkins.

Team Bull**** have redefined ******ity.
