Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: I'm Daring To Be Great By Moving Up To 175

[Shadoww702]

Or you ate your way to 175 in those two years after spending the last decade at 168...that's one factor people here don't count. He stayed at 168 longer than practically anyone else...daring to be great or there isn't shhh left at 168 to do.

Ggg is spending his entire career at 160. He cleaned out the division. Why doesn't HE move up...

How do you dare to be great by fighting in a division in which you already won gold?

smdh...he turned pro at middleweight and was never a natural lightheavyweight in the amatuers....before the olympics he won national championships at middleweight...he moved up so Dirrell could fight for the middleweight spot...otherwise we would have been weak or had no fighter at 179 for the US

Were you guys even following boxing in 04-05? He turned pro at middleweight for gods sake...first fight over the limit as a pro was his last fight

he beat lemieux and was given a belt...he aint clean out **** when BJS is undefeated, he hasnt fought Canelo, and never fought Jacobs, Quillin, etc

He said in an older interview probably can't make 168 and struggled to get down to 170 in camp but OK. Sure thing.

I'm glad it happened whatever the reason.

I think Ward is a fantastic fighter but he's kind of a ****.

"I'm daring to be great..."

Hate to break it to you ward,but hbo had no interest in broadcasting your fights,unless you were actually fighting against live bodies.

In stark contrast to their policy as it pertains to the Triple Duck...

nope he's daring to be great! and he's fighting kovalev because he wants a challenge not because hbo made him do it. he would fight koavlev for free amir khan style!

Looks like Golovkin's girls are throwing a party in this thread. Use up all that energy girls, you'll have to put your mind to work again to make up another excuse after November 19th.

After Ward sons Kovalev the Golovkin Girls will claim that Ward is ducking Bumlovkin by not meeting him @ 168.
