Comments Thread For: Andre Ward Unsure If He'll Box Between Barrera and Kovalev Fights

[Shadoww702]

Barrera is a low level fighter. He doesn't need to go to any lower level guys. Alot of fighters had amazing runs and this would be nothing in comparison, you don't need to pad your record with bums or hasbeens after every decent opponent you face. That's a very Haymon-ish strategy.

Barrera is not a low level fighter. He just an unknown fighter.

if u dont see talent in barrera but bought ggg vs lemueix please slap your fuggin self..

I second that. He needs to slap the sht out of himself. No matter how good he does either Barrera is gonna be a bumnor Ward is overrated gggtards will. Say.

They can NEVER praise any other fighter. Just full of hate and BS!!!

Ggg rtarded fans and media ho trainer is the whole sht that surrounds GGG from being everyone favoorite.

That is pretty much a nothing statement from Ward.

I get that he is focused on Barrera, but giving some thought to the future is not disrespectful.

And why give Team Kovalev excuses ?

Make a plan, then stick to it..... that way Kovalev can plan his future as well.

It's not their job to dutifully present Kovalev whenever you snap your fingers.

Make the fkn fight, it was hard enough for Stevenson to pin them down.

Ward needs another fight. Fight again 4 months after March 26 in late July and then fight Kovalev 4 months after that on November 19. It works out perfectly.

It would be amazing if he can get Shabranskyy for July so he can take three zeroes in 2016.

Exactly !

But, I thought that was the plan anyway ?

How about I slap yo momma's big ole' booty instead?

Barrera's decent. I just don't think going to a lower level opponent after him is necessary, he could use someone like Fonfora as a good step up from Barrera before Kovalev.

I don't think Fonfara will want Ward this summer. Best to fight a fairly tough holding place fight because he takes tough fights this summer and then wait for things to fall out after Kovalev-Ward/Barrera. Too bad about Jesse Hart, that would have been good for Fonfara.

alternate reality warning! ward is using up his excuses as we speak. what do you call these 2 million dollar tune ups? kovalev wanted to fight now but ward said im not ready(like he has said in the past) the fight could have happened already or could be hapepning right now. the only reason its not is because of ward not kovalev. join reality.

If he looks great against Barrera, why bother? If he doesn't though, I'd try to get in another.

[ShoulderRoll]

Ward is just saying that right now his focus is on Barrera and nothing else. Once that fight is over he'll think about what comes next but until then he isn't going to waste any time or energy on it.

No big deal.

Ward wasn't ready for Golovkin and he won't be ready for Kovalev either. Ever.

Duva stated that Kovalev's schedule was full, and that 2x interim fights suited her perfectly.

She was also positive and upbeat about the fight, unlike you.

All I said was, Ward should make a plan, and stick to it.
