    Maybe because Russia is not known for having boxing greats like Mexico is or other countries. It's more known for spying, cold war, etc. Whereas when it comes to Puerto Rico and Mexico, for example, it's automatic.

        Well Comrade Roy Jones is now a Russian citizen, so they have one of the greatest to call family.

            It's nice to see Ward take the igh road, but this is why Roc Nation is failing. Floyd (and Roger) took advantage of the USA vs. Mexico narrative. He even took over the Cinco de Mayo weekend, when he took over the #1 spot from Oscar De La Hoya! That's why GBP is shi*ting in their pants over fears that Mayweather vs. McGregor would eclipse the Canelo vs. GGG fight. The job of Ward is to win. The job of Roc Nation is to promote the fight in a manner that brings in the most revenue!
            Only idiots would pay to see Mayweather vs McGregor.

            Do you think Mayweather would be McGregor in a MMA fight?

            The same answer is do you think McGregor would beat Mayweather in boxing match?

              Ward is a habitual liar with selective memory!

              He said that the eastern European fighters tryna come over here and take ours, what a diva this guy is!

              Calls Kov a bully but was weight bullying his entire career at 168 and now he struggles mightly with someone his own size!

              Kov made him unsure of himself if he can take on a heavyweight after all that talk about wanting to fight there!

              Don't matter, Ward complains about not getting the credit or attention but has one of the most unpleasant styles you can ever lay eyes on and doesn't know how to promote himself, this rematch was the perfect moment to do it but yet he refuses cuz he wants to act holier than thou which isn't true!

                We do! As an American, I'll be rooting for Andre Ward AGAIN! USA USA!!! I do think that he should have lost a close decision in The First (although I had several even rounds that could have gone either way). I hope AW Wins This 1 convincingly!

                  Well, that's ok. I am not really sure what promotional angle they apply since the first fight did terrible.

                  Ward and Kovalev just don't capture the public's imagination no matter how good they are.
