Floyd likes to have his home ref Joe Cortez there to help him out.
Ward getting all his Super Six fights in the USA while everybody else had to fight in foreign countries, was that fair?
But you'll never say anything about that.

who is mayweather supposed to fight overseas? is he supposed to go to the philippines to fight pac or how about ukraine to fight senchenko? that would make sense wouldn't it? ahh he didn't go to ghana to fight joshua clottey that must be it.

And what is there to criticize about Ward? Because he didn't leave boxing's epicenter and media and financial capitol, to go fight in lesser countries? What sense does that make?
Since when has anybody successfully advanced thier boxing career by going to Denmark and the UK to fight?
Both Kessler & Froch understood that they needed the U.S. market in order to take their careers to the next level, which is why they agreed to fight here.
There's really nothing to crticize about Ward (other than his style and stale personality) He just cleaned out the top half of his division. Which is something of a rare occurance in the sport in modern times. Ward represents everything that's right with the sport of boxing (other than his style and stale personality
