    I don't understand why so many people dislike Andre Ward?

    He comes across as a really nice & humble guy yet it seems a lot of people have a real hatred for him. Also, the guy has an extremely high boxing IQ. There's almost no other fighter outside of maybe a Mayweather & a few others that could have come back from the almost one-sidedness of the first half of the first Kovalev fight. I know a lot thought Ward lost but whether you did or not it was an extremely close fight that really either side only won by 1 point. But what exactly is it that people dislike about him so much?

      Look at the people who are hating him. They're all Golovkin fans, they're holding a grudge because Ward called Golovkin out on his bullshit.

            They hate his half black side. He needs to come out with the Irish flag and represent his dad.

              It's a combination of his smug face, attitude, and style. He does NOT come off as humble at all. Plus he's always subliminally crying about the "racism" he faces in boxing which is incredibly annoying. He usually does it when a black reporter interviews him, especially Fighthype.

                can you elaborate on why you think he is hated? I dislike him because his style is ugly to watch and he's a whiney diva outside the ring.

                    Because Floyd. Somehow hating and making things up about Andre Ward (a religious family man who has never shared the same promotional banner as Floyd) is a way to get back at Floyd and his supporters.

                    It's the same concept as Povetkin failing A & B samples in multiple drug tests actually meaning Wilder is scared and the real doping cheater.

                    Moral of the story? 98% of BoxingScene is ******ed on all sides. The rest of us just loiter here to watch the shenanigans unfold.
