Comments Thread For: Andre Ward vs. Alexander Brand, August 6th at Oracle Arena

I wouldn't be scared if I was fighting Kovalev. Nobody would expect me to do anything but get KTFO very quickly, and I would be a lot richer when I woke up than I was when I went to sleep.

Ward has a lot more to lose than I would have. His reputation and future earning power would be badly affected if he got KTFO by Krusher, which is what I would expect to happen if the fight goes ahead.

You crybaby clown, that is the case for every fighter/opponent EVER.

Stop projecting YOUR childish little fears onto a grown man.

Tuneup or not, it's a ****ty fight for premium TV.

Not worthy of Ward and not worthy of premium TV.

Canelo vs Glass Joe from two weight classes below
Golovkin, the supposed PFP #1 vs. no-hoper Dominic Wade
Ward vs. overmatched Barrera
Luis Ortiz vs. Tony Thompson, who was over the hill five years ago
Terence Crawford vs. Hank Lundy, another PFP #1 vs no-hoper
Sergey Kovalev vs. Jean Pascal II, the rematch no one wanted

2016 HBO schedule is the worst premium tv boxing schedule in history.

Dude it's boxingscene where only the convenient facts get used..you could sit here all day long and see that same pattern repeated over and over and over and over again.

What, you mean like labeling a particular fighter as " great " because he is undefeated, but forgetting the fact that he is only fighting bums?

Or, labeling a guy as " avoided " because 1-or-2 key fighters will not step up, but forgetting that other, much better fighters have called the guy out and he simply doesn't want to fight them?

Yea, I know exactly what you mean.

Stay busy fight

[aboutfkntime]

Who is this brand dude? Ward is almost as bad as wilder.

don't judge a book by it's cover, dude is quicker than you think and he has a nasty uppercut

[g27region]

Ward has, in the last 4 years fought some latino no name SMW, an English journeyman who wasn't even a light heavy, some no experience Cuban and now this? The **** is going on.

No experience cuban? First of all, Barrera got pretty solid amateur background behind his back. Second, he looked way better against Ward than experienced boxers like Dawson or Froch. He's a good boxer and he was one of the best prospects in light heavyweight division before that fight. Don't make it sound like Barrera was a complete bum

I agree with the rest of your message and who the **** is Alexander Brand?

[mathed]

Strictly a stay busy fight.

He's fighting Kov next.

Calm your *******.

No, he's not. Not this year at least.

[Nod]

What Ward aint allowed to get that free HBO money Golovkin has been getting for fighting **** cans?

[NapalmKnuckles]

No, he's not. Not this year at least.

Fat Dan says the fight is set for Nov 19th given that they both get past their next opponents.

I trust Fat Dan.

[ShoulderRoll]

I'm fine with it because Kovalev is up next.
