Andre Ward failed to show up at today's presser

The fight will happen. Of course there are the usual suspects who actually hope Ward won't fight Kovalev and are looking for anything to support that theory.

I never heard of a fighter that needed three tune-ups to have one meaningful fight, have you?

When you decided to take a tune-up no one gave a fuq about. He trains and fights in California so I'm pretty sure he got to see his family and the press I assume was also on the east coast. The question is does Ward want to make money or cry like a lil ladyman when people don't show up to see him fight?

Golovkin is on his 36th and no meaningful fight yet.

They can have 100 press conferences and still nobody but the hard cores are buying the fight. Between the 2 of them they have .05 of personality... Good luck selling this fight alone Main events cause ROC won't be helping any that's for sure...

That wasn't classic press conferense.There is no banner behind or stuff like that.Just little local conferense.No big deal that Ward wasn't here.

I still think November is cutting it close. Not sure why HBO is pressing for that date.

Anyway, I'm not worried. Let's all relax.

It's funny that I can see some G fans in every Ward threads...lol

[The Hammer]

Andre Ward is shook!

Why would they even hold a presser 3 days after the guys had his last fight? RNS is not a good promotion. But Main Events is just as bad usually. And this is just ****** all around. It has Duva's dumb ass written all over it

The fight is 3 months away. Training camps will start soon and these guys are supposed to be headlining a ppv. The problem is, they are virtually unknown to the casual fan. For as much money as ward and serg are getting, they need to start making appearances to get people interested. Wards last fight was against a nobody. He didnt take punishment, he didnt suffer any injuries. Seems like ward wants the big star paydays without doing any of the leg work to deserve it.

And Ward fans are all over "G" threads. What's your point? I swear that there are some jackasses who care more about making the other fighter look bad than watching good fights.

Can you believe that people come to a boxing forum to talk about fighters and schit? I mean, wtf is that all about?
