Ward is Unkown Outside The US

[Mr.Fantastic]

Too bad popularity doesn't give him enough courage to actually fight him.

Why should he move up two divisions to fight him?

Fight was offered at 168. 160 to 168 is one division. ****ing casual.

It was one at the time, but unfortunately Lil G didn't have the balls to move up one measly weight class. And now he gets to be fed scraps after scraps at 160 because there's no one there to actually fight.

Even then he wasn't obligated to do so. If a guy wants to stay in a division, that's his right as long as he makes weight.

They know it was one but that doesn't sound as good of an excuse as two so they ignore it.

How do these threads always become derailed into a "why didn't he fight ____" topic? Instantly this became a Ward vs GGG debate lol

You're right, every man has the right to run home and hide.

Seriously, even avid boxing fans here in the UK barely know who I'm talking about when I mention his name. An overrated fighter who employs questionable tactics in the ring e.g. his "defense" consists of him bending down between an opponent’s legs, head butting, using elbows and excessive holding.

He's lauded by hipsters who think they know boxing and have a herd mentality, but anyone with an iota of objectivity sees past his act, he's dreadful and his record is horrendous - 29 fights, 15 KOs, more time spent in court than in the ring.

Disclaimer: I'm not white.

I'm surprised he's known outside of California. Or maybe even Oakland.

"Home" as in Oakland?

Scraps? Acting like Ward is doing much lately. Looks to me Ward needed GGG. Whatever helps you sleep.
