[Robbie Barrett]

didnt i tell people before the last fight that kovalev v ward 1 would be the last time you see ward in a boxing ring? i dont look.so ****** now do i...

You make 1001 predictions and brag when 1 is right.

I would win the lottery if i had a ticket for every possible line.

Srl could retire after beating haggler as his win was 10 times more legite than wards win.
If ward don't rematch kov his win needs to be void. Jams win over pac should be void as well

[aboutfkntime]

He's retiring Kov. The diva...

... What a pansy and a disgrace...

Ward is a honorless african american fighter...

... Ward is terrified...

... Ward got his brain jostled...

... i dont look.so ****** now do i...

the usual crybabies having a good ol waaaaah

[Weltschmerz]

He's retiring no doubt.

You said Ward would retire because he would be badly beaten not because he'd win a controversial decision in a close fight and threaten to retire so no, You're still a trash poster......

Anyway I thought the rematch taking place would be a formality, I hope this doesn't drag on for much longer.

Floyd gave rematches when he had controversial decisions even. So ward needs to not talk too much. Just do your training camp then fight kov when your in best shape of your life

CoWard GOT HIS GRAB AND HOLD BUTT WHUPPED. Ward knows he cant win a rematch merely surving this time, so he will retire and come back aa soon as Kov moves up. Ward is just another example of the weak and honorless african american fighter these days. Divas, who think they are entitled for some weird reason. Im just glad these arent my people embarrasing my heritage.

LOU CIPHER... your back!!!

I'm glad, as i need a good laugh (even if it is a prejudice comment).

Who is that guy that kept telling me Sergey was contractually bound to fight Ward next???? I kept telling him Ward is the one contractually bound to fight Kovalev next and Kovalev can take another fight if Ward isn't ready for the rematch.

Right now I am now busy with household chores. I will start preparing for the next fight immediately upon returning to the United States on February 20. If Ward is not will fight, then we will fight those fighters who actually want to fight... we will review our options, since I need to pursue my career," said Kovalev to Margarita Yakapov.

I'm curious why Ward is silent. What else could he be doing?
Sure he was doing commentary in the UK for the Eubank Jr fight but apart from that, we should hear more from Ward, imo.

Geez, you'd think the Russian mafia took him away for "a ride" after his robbery of Kovalev.

Huge Ward fan but this is kinda sad. I know he's trying to control things but there's another fighter with a career who is unable to move until Andre makes up his mind.

Ward is a very likeable, charismatic guy (much, much more than people give him credit for) but the way he is dealing with the rematch/retirement is off-putting.
