Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Promoter Says Andre Ward is Very Eager To Fight

[Bushbaby]

This one of thee most important fights in boxing. Hope it happens.

Ward a coward bum doe

He don't want it. They have a tentative agreement. Ward says he's hurt, he can postpone the fight as long as he wants. They gonna want to marinate it a bit, like until December of next year.

They have a signed contract. Duva and Ward have confirmed this. This is one of the biggest fights in boxing? What good does it do to try and predict a postponement? Seems like you don't want it to happen!

This is exciting news that the fight will be in sooner rather than later.. It's been ages since a LHW fight this exciting and this even, the last LHW fight I remember being this close was Calzaghe-Hopkins..

[jaded]

So is this a done deal? If so then this is great news and about time...it will be the biggest fight of 2016.

I've noticed the same thing in a lot of posts around here. Strange to witness boxing fans pray for the downfall of fights that benefit the sport overall.....

Kovalev and Ward are both expected to win their next fight but lets cut the bullsiht and lies about their opposition
WBA Brand is ranked 10th and Chelimba is ranked 12th
WBO Chelimba is ranked 11th and Brand is ranked 13th
Neither is ranked in the top 15 for the WBC or IBF

What lies and BS?

[GGG Gloveking]

Not gonna go on about it, because I am sick of the rubbish, but to the..... "Ward is scared" team..... and also, to the "Kovalev will walk all over Andre Ward" team.....


Why do you guys think that Kovalev and JDJ never utter a bad word about Andre Ward?

Why ?

Not 1 bad word has ever crossed their lips, NO disrespect whatsoever..... NO complaints about dealing with Ward, NO complaints about the 3-fight deal..... they don't have a negative comment or bad word to say about him. The same with Duva/HBO/etc.

Why do YOU guys think that is..... ?


It's real easy to blow off at the mouth, like that utter idiot Sanchez, and like some of you guys do, when you know that you will never have to fight him.... but Kovalev and JDJ know exactly why Ward rode into town, he wants their shine and he has come to take it..... Ward has no peaceful intentions whatsoever, he doesn't want "the belt" like that lame rubbish from Team Golovkin, he wants Kovalev...... they are going to have to fight him, NO if's when's and but's..... unlike that utter idiot Sanchez and Team Talk-A-Lot.

Team Kovalev know what's up, which is why they have shown Ward nothing but the utmost respect..... they are confident, sure..... but they know what's up.

Some of you guys are making yourselves look real dumb, just saying.....

A soft punk like you would know all about running off at the mouth now wouldn't you?

...give a red k to that...

This fight is gonna be off the chain. I hope. My feeling is that Kovalev is too busy, powerful and ruthless to be stifled by Ward's spoilerism.

Of course Brand is ranked by WBA and WBO at LHW -- in his last fight he was 168 3/4 at the weigh in... and beat a guy who is ranked #77 by BoxRec.
