When was the last time someone called Andre Ward out?

[The Big Dunn]

Guys like Ward, all risk and no reward, very rarely get called out by other top fighters.

[therealpugilist]

Maybe Lucian Bute who sat back and let everybody else fight each other in the Super 6 then after the Dust was cleared he showed up trying to be bold claiming that he "Want To Fight". Chad Dawson also who not only issued the challenge but said he would come down which we all know now was a huge mistake other than that NOBODY!

Ward is one of the best P4P in the world and he basically has to chase down opponents and make calls just to find guys who are WILLING to fight! That is more of a credit to him and shows you how much respect other fighters have for him but also how WEAK this ERA is in which guys have ZERO Desire to fight the very best to try and beat them and make a name for themselves

good call i remember that

Chad was a prospect at 168, He most likely wanted to get that title cause it didnt present itself on his way up.


that last statement you made was golden and true

[Mr.Fantastic]

at the time the top 168ers were kessler, froch and Abraham.....get over it

Also all 3 went on to do good things after he beat them

Calzaghe beat Kessler to become the true man there a while before...you cant rewrite history

who did he miss? Bute? Bute has lost to every top supermiddleweight he faced.

cant rewrite history...now its Jack and DeGale's division

Abraham was coming off a loss, how the hell was he at the top. You guys make me laugh with this nut hugging.

People can't improve? Boxing is who you beat at the time. Froch lost to Kessler the first time and went on to get his revenge in the rematch.

He didn't even beat Dirrell, he had a chance to but you can tell they both didn't want it. Froch beat Abraham before Ward.

If anyone truly cleaned the division, it's Froch, not Ward. I'm sure you guys will never admit it cause of some type of pride but whatever.

I've followed his career since the olympics and the only fighter I can think of that was open about fighting him was someone he already defeated.....Carl Froch

He was inactive a long time so you think someone would have jumped at the chance at facing a "rusty" WARD

Ward isn't the most popular but everyone appreciates his skill and ability

Im disappointed he is fighting a guy like Brand, Ive never seen him fight to be honest. I know Badou Jack said it was hard to look good against him


Most people think punchers are the guys that are ducked but fighters who make you look bad and arent big $$$$ fighters get avoided, ducked or whatever term you prefer


I just pose a simple question.....when was the last time you saw someone openly chase and candidly call out Andre Ward?

Kessler did. He was very vocal, but even though you have followed Ward's career closely since the olympics, you missed that one.

Very strange that you missed it btw, as courtdocuments shows that Ward asked Kessler for an offer for a fight which he got and then guess what happened next: Nothing! Ward flat out said no with no counter or anything.

Also Lucian Bute. He offered Ward a fight after the s6 which Ward also flat out turned down.

You may thank me for giving you some additional info on your idol Ward now.

Wow what a massive fail this thread.

yea lets sit here and act like you haven't missed a detail, stat about a topic in you entire life

news flash genius, I wouldnt have asked if I knew the answer. I follow the fights, I dont pay as close attention to out of ring stuff as many people on here do. FOR EXAMPLE, I would be the last person to ask about Top ranks roster, PBC, cold wars, A side/ B side, all that is not my m.o.

I like to watch the fights.

OMG you dudes act like kids on this site.

Don't waste your time, that dude been on here b1tching since the Super 6 because Ward Whipped his guy Kessler's Ass

[brettWall]

Ward prefers nobody calls him out. If he had his way, he would have retired unnoticed.
