    Look!! This man has already made up his own story and we're only 3 pages in. Before you know it, in the future, they'll be saying Ward turned down Shabransky multiple times.
    No but he ducked GGG, Bute and Carl Froch rematch in England because "I'm scared of flying "

      Yep I was one of the main ones saying the Wade fight was trash and I don't care about a mandatory and he should drop that belt. I said the IBF belt isn't worth keeping and no other MW's want the belt because they'll have to fight mado's like Wade and it's a beginners belt. Great for young fighters like Joshua but not worth anything for GGG because of his age and resume. If you think I'm wrong then go take a look at the IBF rankings and tell me which one of those fighters you want to see him fight? He has the WBA. He's guaranteed a shot at the WBC or he's guaranteed the belt if he doesn't get his shot. Considering his age/resume/ and circumstances I don't see the point of him holding onto that belt. It brings him nothing but horrible mando's. But you look at it from a promoters POV. He makes good money for K2 fighting those guys and you don't have to pay them much.

      As far as Ward and Shabranskyy, hell no he's not in Ward's class. Very few are. But he's a hell of a lot better than Wade. Barrera is a hell of a lot better than Wade. And Ward has a HOF resume and a fight scheduled with the #1 p4p fighter imo. What does GGG have? What did fighting Wade accomplish?
      Wade actually had a marquee win on his resume unlike Barrera and the next guy Ward will fight will likely be another no-hoper but I give Barrera some credit he made Ward struggle but sadly Ward never gets into trouble for constantly clinching.

          If you're serious about a fight happening you have it as soon as it becomes available but no all Ward is doing is building you up to him not going forward with it.
          Because it's happening in November. It's signed for Nov. 19th......Do you really think it's not happening or are you hoping it won't happen?

              That's been a rumor started by Steve Kim saying Beyonce sued Haymon and tweeted a link to a story about Beyonce suing her father. Everybody else just ran with it. Live Nation and Roc Nation does business so i don't see why PBC and Roc Nation Sports can't/

                Shabranskyy is a good opponent for a light heavyweight step up. Solid consensus top 10 opponent. Its not his fault posters here haven't heard of him.

                      1, he wanted everything his own way and he never got that treatment, he ducked the fight and he cried to the media because he couldn't get the same terms other big name profitable fighters were getting.

                      2, the Bute fight would have required Ward to travel to Canada need I explain anymore, Ward doesn't travel he is a small time little fighter who can't hop on a plane he has no balls

                      3, Carl Froch was the big money in the 168 division having a rematch with Froch in Britain would have been the hugest fight Ward would EVER have but instead of that Ward cried ONCE AGAIN because it couldn't happen in his home country.
