Robbery in the 2004 Olympics: Andre Ward should have lost

[The Hammer]

Andre Ward's amateur career isn't as good as most people believe.

The only top level tournament he was in was the 2004 Olympics, and he needed a robbery to advance.

ohh boy stop with this nonsense...What are we going to do about it?...the record is there...whatever we thinl about it is worthless... a W is a W.

Let's enjoy watching fights...not diminishing someone's career

Ward's amateur career isn't that good. His professional record isn't that good. John David Jackson says Ward is past his prime. Why is Kovalev fighting this bum? Kovalev is cherry picking Andre Ward

What an impressive win for young Andre Ward considering his opponent had far more experience and ten years his senior. From the first round up to the third Ward was in the lead , that tells you who controlled the fight then in the closing moments of the third Ward regain the points lead at the final seconds of the third round with a uppercut (which was the best punch of the fight imo.) then suddenly Haydarov comes back and evens it at 13-13. The live punch count was accurate I do not see a case to be made for a 'robbery'...now hypothetically speaking had Haydarov won the final round and got the win -- that would of been a robbery as I already said Ward was leading rounds 1-2 tied in the third and that would of given Haydarov only the final round.

They stay robbin' dem sleek Uzbeks.

Ward got Gold what did Golovkin get? Golovkin a level below Ward in everything.

In a fair fight, true.

But let's not forget Ward will have the referee and judges.

And most of the boxing media on Ward's side. On HBO, Max Kellerman will be telling us that Ward is winning every round, even if Kovalev dominates. BoxNation's Jim Rawling will do the same to convince UK fans, as will Sheridan if there's an international feed.

There will be a robbery coming, if Ward survives the distance. Kovalev will need a KO to win.

By your logic why are you clamoring for a Ward GGG fight if GGG is some hype machine and nothing else? Why should he move up and fight Ward if he is a bum that you and others are waiting to call him once he loses

No he won't man quit lying.
