Comments Thread For: Duva: Ward's Team 'Should Be Embarrassed' by Offer to Jackson

[TonyGe]

As far as I know Jackson has been a stand up guy as a trainer. Kovalev has a but of a reputation as hard to deal with for trainers.
You reap what you sow. In this case Kovalev has sowed the seeds of this problem.

This was just low.

Ward is a fighter, and I doubt he played any part in this game. James Prince, Ward's manager, is a gangster who would shit his pants if he had to go up against a guy like Kovalev in a one-on-one fight. I think it was probably Prince who was behind this plan.

Lol at you saying a gangster would be afraid of fighting someone. Boxing and fighting are two different things. Not so sure we know what kind of fighter either one is.

Whether it was gamesmanship or a serious attempt to lure JDJ away from Kovalev, the way I look at it is .. if you are confident of winning, why resort to stunts like this?

perhaps Im just glorifying the past, but it seems to me that back in the day you wanted someones BEST game when you fought them. You didnt play all these ****** head games, or drain a guy with catchweights, or play games with which gloves they can use, or blah blah blah. You wanted to beat them at their best.

But times change I guess..............

The thread topic is about hiring a trainer from the opposite camp.

And hell man, we can relate Floyd to this since he did the same thing in the biggest event in boxing history (money wise).

I don't like Floyd as a public character if you prefer.

He doesn't have to be an exemple, he's a free man.

But, still, people are looking at him, especially young men and kids from the inner city.

And I'm not sure about Floyd being the good exemple he could/should be.

Making people like you think doing btch move like hiring Ariza is something smart and cool.
Floyd is good at brainwashing his fans in the wrong way, that's the problem I have with him.

Was Ariza still with PAC when FMJ hired him? See how it sounds like your personal agenda against Floyd.

Team ward did it all wrong. I guess they weren't taking any notes from TBE. They should have went and looked for an old team member of kov and then offer him a spot on their team. They werent suppose to offer a team member of kov who is still apart of that team!

anybody with a few dollars can pay for muscle. I dont know about Prince, but not too many gangsters these days put in their own work.

Great fighters don't do that.

We are in a sport.

They embarassing Dre, Ali wouldn't do that and call his manager a puss.

Loyalty, honnesty are dead values in our sport, all camps are lying like wh0res.

Don't get me wrong, it's not coming from Dre who is IMO more of an exemple than Kovalev himself.

Very new to our sport.

Once again, Floyd laid the blueprint hiring Ariza.

Floyd was great, but dude lowered so much this sport.

I have a big problem with that supposed thag of Prince and how he's managing Dre.
I wish those type of dudes would stick to the rap game.

I'm not sure Roc Nation have been really helpfull to Dre, I just guess they paying him well.

Stop the madness! All things are not Floyd related. Roach fired Ariza in 2013 and was brought into Mayweather's camp 2 years later. Not even close to being the same as a head trainer switching camps. Furthermore, in 1994, Emmanuel Steward trained Oliver McCall in his upset of reigning WBC Heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis. After that loss, Lewis fired his trainer Pepe Correa and hired Emmanuel Steward.

If this all happened in Winter-its damn near Summer-whyas well? would Team Ward be in a "rush" to get it out now? There were plenty of times it could've come out already. Why is Kova's team just now finding out now? It seems like negotiations have been going on since Winter JDJ and ROC couldn't come to an agreement and they just came out with the info to cause friction in the other camp.

I doubt any negotiations have been going on at this point, since Duva stated that JDJ told them about this even before camp started. My guess is Wards camp put this out now to try and create some chaos in Kovalevs camp in the critical final weeks of training camp......

Legal moves=btch moves are 2 different things.

A btch move can be legal.

There are no ***** moves in life. Just smart moves and bad moves.
