Comments Thread For: Andre Ward on Adversity: It's All Just Made Me into a Monster!

[therealpugilist]

Dam You Have A Lot To Say - why? So much so that you are a troll! So just poke holes from when he won the Olympic Gold all the way up to the present? According to you, he should have been a lawyer or something - possibly a auto mechanic.. surprised you didn't start dissing his kids and wife - you are one of the reason's why I barely engage on these boxing sites - because you know nothing about the sport, what it takes to be good to great to elite! The preperation, the sacrifice, the toll on the body! The man has already had a 10 year career...... go on and keep supporting the easy guys to support the GGG's who are working on their 15 title defense against no bodies - guys who have fought 1 or 2 world champs with 15 title defenses - WTF is that about?? But you write a diss thesis about a proven fighter? Then talk about fact check - if you truly knew the sport you would understand that you can poke holes in 99% of the greats careers / resume's! With the exception of Ali and Sugar Ray Robinson - the amount of hate this Countries last Olympic Gold Medalist receives is comical - reading half of you haters post - I feel like batman saving young boxing fans minds from the Joker a hell bent hater that knows shyt- get your boxrec - bias hate checking a$$ out of here - Learn the sport and it's nuances before you hate on a active Hall of famer's career! How many fighters you know clear out a division, then goes up and takes a stern test and has his path lined up with the undisputed Champ at the new weight class? I bet you can name a few - then look in the mirror and make sure you put Ward with that list because that's what he is doing - hater

a)nobody knows how many "defenses" GGG has because he didnt win the title in the ring, and he was elevated from "regular" champion

b) GGG gets a lot of love but its sad that people who get crapped on this site like Khan, Wlad, Ward, Canelo, etc all have better resumes and been in with better competition

c) Ignorance is bliss...let him enjoy it....Ward hasnt lost since he started growing a mustache

[-PBP-]

Ward the bully. Love the way he fights. Old school, mean and in your face. Can't wait to see him get back and school these no inside game having softies.

What adversity n monster is he talking about? If he was such a monster, he wouldn't be relying on the clinch as his favorite weapon.

Injuries and Managerial disputes....are you living under a rock? Oy you dont understand the meaning of the word adversity....you know obstacles that can hinder you from reaching a goal....dumb ass

yet...he outlands his opponents, and gets hit less.....hasnt even had a toss up fight


what is it that you dislike about him? his style?

everyone has a preference but making excuses because fighters cant ADAPT is lame.


He clinching doe, he running doe......if he clinched as much as you fools imply he'd have been DQ'ed...Are you upset he hasnt lost yet?

they cant decide if he runs too much or he clinches too much....lol...its impossible to do both as much as some exaggerate without dq losses.


He knows how to fight inside, outside, on a pivot, etc....I thoroughly enjoy watching his fights....just depends on the opponent.

except for Floyd when he was in his prime....I havent seen a fighter in recent memory get criticized for doing exactly what you are supposed to do in the ring.

a)adapt b)neutralize your oppponent c)win



I guess some people on this site have a loser's mentality....excuses, excuses, excuses

First off the contractual dispute was his own doing. He willingly re-signed the contract, no one put a gun to his head. So please don't tell us that's adversity.

And it's not his style we hate, it's his diva like attitude. Since he won the super 6 he's been offered multiple fights, he's turned them down because he somehow thinks he's better. He has claimed it's the other fighters avoiding him all the while we know he was negotiating with HBO trying to secure fights with weak opposition.

business is business.....you are a dumb ass to take every offer you are given

none of us were in the negotiating room so please stop acting like you guys know the ins and outs of these offers and deals.

injuries are adversity...he is 32 years old and has fought amatuer and pro. Been fighting since elementary school or something so you thing his body wasnt banged up?

If you dont agree with a deal you fight it....he ended up in a better position in the end.....just like floyd did when Arum wouldnt let him fight Cotto, ODLH and others....he bought his contract out and got all the fights he wanted

if being a diva is knowing your worth and not settling for less, then I guess he is a diva


Some of you posters are real feminine in your ways.....what grown as man doesnt like an athlete because of things that happen outside of the sport?


are you a boxing fan or do you watch the VIEW daily....who gives a **** about his out of ring attitude....aint nobody beat this dude since he started puberty, has one of the best resumes of active fighters, and is undoubtedly one of the most skilled and knowledgeable nuances and you say you dont like him over stuff that happens OUTSIDE of the ring......thats pretty weak

[MrRolltide91]

Ward is back

[MDPopescu]

At some point I was wondering why monster Ward didn't sign with Haymon...
But I soon realised that he would have had to pretend that he is after a monster pimp and a monster Chechen...

Deals are deals but when you reject every deal given to you the problem lies in you.

His resume is good but that doesn't mean he is to live off the super six forever. If he is then he might as well retire.

He is also a guy claiming others avoid him but we find out this too isn't true. While he's talking about one opponent in public, he's secretly trying to get hbo to approve of another much weaker opponent. That's beyond diva **** t

Got the menu together cause we are tailgating for this one!!!
