Comments Thread For: However You Feel, Boxing Needs More Men Like Andre Ward

[Edward90]

I couldn't agree more with this article. In another article, I mentioned that he is one of the few authentic boxers out there. He keeps it real and for him, that hasn't really went wrong yet. The criticism is bizarre. He's already a HOF, but with a win tomorrow, he is an ATG...

Boxing needs more fighters like Lomachenko.

Boxing needs more fighters like Lomachenko.

Agreed. Lomachenko is the truth! But so is Andre Ward. So is Kovalev for that matter. He just also happens to make some pretty mean, spiteful and racist remarks. But hey, Donald Trump is the President. So that obviously doesn't make too much of a difference nowadays.

Boxing needs more people like that delusional poster Lou "loose nuts" Cypher

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...

Maidana??lol..smh..Morales was the man though, but Marcos..I'll go up the street to one of the bars and wait until 2 am to see a few maidana brawls.

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.

except Ward didnt "get out of a faulty contract". He lost every single case for YEARS, and it was only after Dan Goosen passed away that Roc bought out his contract......

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!

Golovkin just fought Wade then Brook, you golov-tool

I already knew you were an idiot, but now I can add "scumbag" to the description......

[Reloaded]

Yup. I don't know if the Ward hate bothers me per se...but I definitely don't understand it. I don't understand it at all.

Hate on any fighter bothers me at times there is just too much negative sht in here , I dont really get it Ive followed boxing for close to 50 yrs and there were always negatives and hate from the very casual fan but the real boxing people were all pretty much into the sport as a whole .

Today with the internet its all about my , whatever whoever dont matter if its mine I must hate on everything thats not mine , when I say hate I mean hate not just some criticism but pure hate , wtf is that about with people today .

Anyway how can anybody hate on Ward he is one of the most down to earth realistic champs in boxing he is articulate intelligent and honest and a helluva good fighter .
