don't you love the way Andre Ward and Goosen-Tutor have really capitalized on winning the Super Six? #boxing #sarcasm
Ward has talent, but just having people say your top five PFP and winning a tournament that lost steam as it went on, isn't enough #boxing
As looks right now, as the calendars are being filled out for #boxing going into June, there's a chance Ward fights just once in '12 #boxing
I'll say it again, if you're not Pac or May, if you want to really become a star, you better be fighting more than twice a year #boxing
Right now, Andre Ward is being TV packaged into 'bolivian'... #boxing
Honestly, this is no criticism of Ward, but really the overall business of #boxing. Ward is just an example of what's wrong with it...
I literally have not recieved any emails asking when Ward fights again.The lesson is, if you're inactive, fans will move onto others
Say what you want about Bute and Interbox, they have created a business that can sustain itself without HBO or Showtime and they fight on
And say what you want about the Klitschko's, they stay as active as possible and have built their brands by being busy #boxing
In the U.S. we have too many boxers and TV packagers who can only survive without the welfare check of HBO and Show #boxing
Canelo and Chavez Jr get a lot of hate but at least they have fights for people to hate. Wish more fought 3-4 times a year
And with how the networks pay certain boxers, they have actually de-incentizived the need to fight more than twice a year #boxing
And with all this said, I can absolutely see HBO giving Ward an exorbitant deal, because, well, he's #3 pound for pound!!! #boxing
also with the way ward fights he wont be that popular so fighting often to gain exposure is v important
Oh, and last thing before I leave for my LA Fitness: HARD WORK!!! DEDICATION!!! HARD WORK!! DEDICATION!!! #moneyteam #boxing
