Comments Thread For: Ward: Kovalev Making A lot of Excuses, Some of it is Laughable!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It appears Andre Ward's retirement talk is as much about negotiating as anything. Ward told TMZ Sports that he just wants to be treated as the winner of his light heavyweight title fight against Sergey Kovalev as the two sides try to come to an agreement on when and where they'll fight again.

I wish for less talking and more fighting. I just want to see the rematch as soon as possible.

“I beat the guy that nobody said I could beat."

Man, but since it was 50/50 fight, why nobody said he could beat Kovalev? In fact, Ward was a slight favorite at the books

[NEETzsche]

The judges are the only ones who need to be making excuses

[MantisToboggan]

What's more laughable how you got knock down, lost a fight, got a GIFT for Christmas and pretending that you won that fight coWard!
Sign the re-match contract.

"I don't get involved in that stuff publicly".

Lol. If only.

Just hope it gets made soon. All this back and forth is tiresome already.

Yeah, that's my reaction too. I absolutely despise Ward the 'business man', or whatever you want to call it. Whenever he opens his mouth a bunch of garbage comes out.

He was a favorite and somehow that means nobody thought he could win?

Talking about Kovalev making excuses.. but he's the one talking retirement even though he signed a rematch clause?

"I don't get involved publicly".. DUDE FOR REAL? Ward airs ALL his BS in the air.

And let's not forget "that was the first time I was dropped" BS he tried to pull.


Great fighter, ***in awful businessman. I wouldn't be surprised if Roc eventually gets fed up with him and he ends up in another dispute like he was with Goosen.

What's laughable is Ward acting like he's some legend in the ring. And demanding everyone respect him as that. Skroo you Ward. You got a gift. Be thankful for that and the fact you were way the he!! overpaid by your promoter. And don't expect even more money for the rematch. Geez, this guy. What an azzholeo thinking he's some specially anointed god or something. SMH

Couldn't agree more. Guy's a legend in his own mind and nowhere else.

[The tucker]

I like ward and wanted him to beat kovalev but personally feel he lost, but didn't he allready get more money than kovalev in the first fight.?is he looking for a 90 to 10 split this go around?
