Like Ward?

And what about guys like Estrada, Salido, Kovalev, Lara, etc?

They always are open to fight with anyone.

No one likes Ward. He is boring. He only fights to survive and win like mayweather. He should be a PPV superstar now if many like him.

So should Kov, he fights exciting with lots of KO's what's his excuse? Why can't he fill a small church ?

More man like Ward? More boxers that thing they are the best so they take very bad self destructive decicions? More boxers like him that because he doesn't like his contract he stays out of the rig for years? More like him that nobody wants to fight him because he has one of the worse styles in boxing? Granted, it's a winning style, but boring as hell!!! No thank you!! We need more fighters like Maidana, like Erik Morales, not like Ward...

if you like head butts grappling strategies elbows low blows your gonna love slappin' soggy the bible ****er oh but he's such a good family man

Sounds like you're talking about Marcos Maidan. And people loved all of his dirty fighting tactics when he employed them against Mayweather. But Andre Ward clashed heads with Mikkel Kessler in one fight and had a fight against one of the most dirty fighters in the sport (Sakio Bika) that was commentated by one of the most outspokenly biased commentators in the sport (Al Bernstein) and now that's all people like you seem to base your entire view of Andre Ward upon. Seems to me that fans like you are just following the lead of the fruity white dude that does the show with Stephen A. Smith(can't remember his name) with how you view\criticize athletes that you dislike.

Trust me, if Ward could have carried on making $2million fighting bums that's exactly what he would have done, and we wouldn't be getting this fight now.

Remember, HBO pulled the plug on him and they only allowed him back on condition he agreed to fight Krusher.

Not even Roc would have allowed Andre to keep fighting Paul Smiths on BET for the money they were paying him!

Lol @ "Trust me". You're obviously a biased hater. That automatically disqualifies your opinion from being trustworthy.

And you are obviously very naive. Enjoy the fight.

Win, lose, or draw, this is going to be a good fight. It's going to have its up and downs, and even a few turn arounds. May the best man win.

Couldn't have been said any better. Everyone wants to hate this guy or that guy for whatever reason but may the best man win.

Boxing definitely needs more boxers who will stand up to shady promoters and not allow them selves to be steam rolled by the powers that be. When you just bend over and take it and relent to crookedness it emboldens promoters and shady business people to continue to do it to the next person. I commend Andre Ward, Mikey Garcia, Floyd Mayweather, Yuriorkis Gamboa , Nonito Donaire and Oscar De la Hoya for knowing their worth, standing up to their promoters, making the sacrifice and getting out of their faulty contracts to hopefully go on to do bigger and better things.

Maybe I am naive about a lot of things in life. But that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the topic at hand. So when you say obviously, its not really too obvious what you mean. When I say you're obviously a biased hater you provide the glaring proof with what you say and what you base your biased opinions on. If you don't realize that without me tellng you then there's the proof of your own naiveté.
