so while i agree that they don't "make the fight bigger" it's absolutely to the benefit of boxing fans that they're active and sharp.

Originally posted by NEETzsche View Postthe thing is, ward has had plenty of time to tune up since he disentangled himself from that contract dispute. he could have had 10 tune-ups by now if tuning up was his only concern. after murray lost to golovkin he had three tune-ups in three months. chisora had five in six months before his fight with pulev. so ward's concern is not really tuning up, but basically hustling HBO and roc nation out of some cash by dangling the kovalev carrot in front of everyone while insisting that he gets paid headline money for a string of mismatches in the meantime. fair play to him, i guess, but it does nothing for me as a fan of competitive boxing
are martin murray and derrick chisora two of the highest rated boxers in the world in both american TV ratings and P4P? those two couldn't get their tune ups on HBO [ward actually fought on BET as well,] and ward could.

ward wouldn't, so getting him tuned up again has turned into a massive, two year long ordeal
