    Really admire what Ward does in the ring and people don't understand the difficulty in what he does. I believe in his abilities and I'm always gonna root for him but at the same time, I'm nervous for some strange reason.

      It's been a long time since he fought a live body. Hard to know where he is.

        Barrera I think is a live dog, and seems hungry.

        Throw in Ward's relative inactivity, and you got fans of the sport that could see him pulling off the upset.

        Shocking way to think, I know.

          2016 belongs to Ward, he will take two 0's and keep his.

            I'm hoping for a really good introduction to the division too, we'll see.

              Ward is an admirable man, he allowed family man Smit the money he was docked for failing weight.

                One of the most convenient war wagons in the game today. Everyone gets a pillow an all.

                  Barrera one of my favorite prospects. He's definitely a live dog in this.

                    You bet he is , a big LH unbeaten pro from Cuba with a amateur record of 258 fights winning a world championship , its obvious Sullivan is a very dangerous fighter , Ward is stepping into LH against a real fighter .

                      It's a tough weekend for you, I understand. When you're a fan of Ward and Kovalev you become accustomed to your favourite fighters wanting to test themselves against the best, not hang around weight classes their clearly is not a challenge for them at.

                      You can castigate and drag Ward's name through the mud all you like, the fact remains he has a more impressive résumé than GGG and yes he didn't fight for 18 months ( GGG fans we know like to say nearly three years ) lol.

                      You can find a lot worse than Ward outside of the ring.

                      This sports history, hell, in it's present day, are littered with guys that you can turn your nose up at as far as transgressions outside of it.

                      You don't like his style inside of it, can't fault you.
                      Yes Ward is a good person outside of the ring and probably never even had a parking ticket. I just don't like the guy but that's my own personal bias. Ward always conducts himself as a gentleman so I was unfair to trash him and I retract what I said about him outside of the ring.
