    Which fighter did he fight that would've sold more tickets elsewhere?

      Came off as a bit of a diva...but there wasn't a huge stock to ruin anyway. If he was a big draw or had a big fan base, he would have had fights at other big venues by now. He has a big fight in vegas coming up tho.

        22 of his fights have been outside of oakland so i very much doubt he has.

              He's never fought a contender outside of the USA.

              Froch, Kessler, Abraham, Taylor and Dirrell all had to fight in foreign countries during the Super Six.

              Ward was too much of a prima donna diva to do so.

              Referees were supposed to be from neutral countries for the Super Six. Ward had a home ref from California who let him use illegal tactics against Kessler.

                at 13-0 when he was a prospect he faced another undefeated prospect at 12-0 outside the USA, he also picked up his first minor sanctioned belt fighting outside the states. both abraham and froch took place outside of oakland and froch and ward both traveled 3000 miles to reach the final fight. jack reiss is one of the best refs in boxing bro. keep crying.

                  It not where you fight is who you fight ..and ward fought the best in his division ...moving up to 175 and fighting the most dangerous man in that division

                  And all his victory where clear that he won the fight....all of sudden we trying find anything goes to discredit a man who fights everybody at the right time...ward not making us weight for the kolv fight like other super fights made us wait

                    Both Abraham and Froch took place outside of Oakland but the Abraham fight was in California with another bad home ref, and the Froch fight was in the USA with another American ref. Jack Reiss is one of the worst refs in boxing bro. Keep telling the truth.
                    Fixed it for you.
