One thing about Andre "CoWard"

[Motorcity Cobra]

cotto/canelo is a tune up how??? silliest thing i ever heard from a fanboy. the wbc said they were going to enforce the mandatory after cotto/canelo aka in early 2016. when did ward want to fight? in early 2016. ward knew all this and yet he still wanted to fight at the same time. it was just a publicity stunt to trick low information fans and nothing more. if he realyl wante to fight he wold have offered a fair contract(not 50-50) for a fight right away since ggg was waiting for the wbc. he did not do that now did he? thats why you are a fanboy. you expect ggg to make ****** decisions just becuse you dont like him. fight ward instead of fighting cotto/canelo! oh wait canelo later ducked him he should have known! lets blame ggg for being stood up! you expected ggg to commit himself long term to a ward fight when he was in line to face cotto canelo. silly.

Wade & Brook were tune ups. I don't care what they say. I judge by their actions. They all lie to much

End of thread right here!
Gamboa had a year and 3 months absence and he came back to fight Crawford, it goes to show you how privileged Andre Ward really is.

It's like these idiots say, "Great people take risks" well, where was the risk that Ward took?
He made all of you wait like idiots drooling at your god damn screen waiting for him to fight a live body and as soon as he did fight someone half decent i.e Sullivan Barrera he got beat up and took another dodgy decision similar to the Kovalev one.

This American privilege of being more beat up and damage = you winning really does confuse me, the bias from you lot is really funny you lot are too blind to see it!

nice sig picture....cept ward is avenging his win over kovalev you gimp...the joke is on you...why bother typing when no one can take you seriously anyway?

[SkillspayBills]

Wait wait wait...are you saying users on this board a complete and utter hypocrites???? Surely you jest!!

[Kigali]

Ward needed 3 "Tune Ups" Before fighting GGG. So that theory goes out the window.

Ward moved up and fought a puncher

Let's see GGift or Kovalev do that.

You mean you're writing revisionist history?

Waiting for the WBC to mandate? The fight was mandated before Cotto-Canelo was signed, Golovkin took step aside money. The fight was mandated before Canelo fought Khan, Golovkin took step aside money. Golovkin could have fought Ward and the fight would have still been there after. He knew he'd lose and ducked.

Of course he took step aside money. There was no way in hell that Cotto or Canelo were going to fight him at that time so why not take the money? At that time Ward was completely done with 168 and GGG would have had to spot Ward 15 pounds. You know this but your are trying to make Ward look good and GGG look bad. You say GGG knew he would lose so he ducked. That's BS. The fight would have to have been at 175 as Ward had clearly stated he was done with 168. You can't duck someone who fights 2 weight classes above your weight class. Ward isn't even a big money fight and yet you expect GGG to drop his plans and give Ward everything he wants. GGG knew he would lose? How do you know that? Can you read his mind?

The fight would have been at 168. You said he knew Cotto/Canelo wouldn't fight him so why not fight Ward at 168? He was looking to fight others at 168. Behind Cotto/Canelo Ward was the biggest fight available. Golovkin ducked.

Nobody takes the 164 offer serious. What Cobra is saying is they never officially made the offer to Ward only mentioned it in the media.

In fact it's a low for Golovkin, he was willing to fight others at 168. You're trying to turn it in to a positive and it's not going to work, it was a bitch move and not a serious offer.

Why not? That's the best use for a cw...so champions from 2 different divisions can face eachother.

Stand by for..."ggg said 168 for other opponents tho"...honestly aside from all the rhetoric, what's wrong with meeting in the middle?

It's cool for ward to face dawson at 168...full credit.

Dawson offered to fight Ward at 168

Because Loeffler himself said it wasn't serious.

Ward never gets credit for beating Dawson, you know this.
