Thread: Ward wants GGG then Kovalev

Wards team has been hinting at it but now they are saying it directly to Fat Dan Rafael. He wants GGG in the fall and then to move to 175 for Kovalev. They say they are willing to do 50/50 and cut weight for GGG. And they will not ask for a catchweight against Krusher. Guess we will see who is really looking for the hard fights now.

If that's true that means that ward is serious about making up for his lost time.

He better watch out fighting Kovalev.

He's got an arm like a leg, and a punch that can sink a battleship.

The good ole Irish Descendants. I love that band. Seen them live three times.

There is more then one narrow definition of "douche bag". Its not just a vagina cleaner.

Ward said after the games that he was going to be bigger then Robinson.
He beats a few names at the S6 and then calls it a day.
He had home field through all of those fights save Froch and has fought nowhere else since.
Again he sits out on a bogus claim rather then challenge himself which in hindsight appears to be the intent. Waiting things out
He talks and talks and talks and does nothing. In fact he's done nothing in 5 years
He plays the Ozzie and Harriot routine but the devil is in the details.
He still acts as if he's the reincarnation of Ray.

Douche bag

I must have missed something Since when do you have to make a Federal case to call someone a douche and have an opinion on a guys personality. Saying a guy is a bum, can't fight all that much or fighter A beats fighter B I get but this is silly shat. I mean the guy calls himself Son of god ffs That alone highlights a slight case of douchery if you ask me. He's a helluva boxer, but he acts a smug diva at times. Who cares.

Right , so all this means
1. another year out of the ring
2. When he does fight, it'll be another "warm up a la Paul Smith" style fight. Martyn Murray or Rocky Fielding.
3. By 2018, he'll be ready for GGG, who will have retired. So he'll have to have a stay busy fight, and
4. In 2019 , he'll call Kovalev out, just as Kovalev is going up to CW!!!
Seriously, are we expected to believe he's gonna cut weight and go 50/50 with GGG, and then go up to LHW to fight Kovalev??
What happened to fighting 4 times this Year?
STOP TALKING AND START FIGHTING!!!!

Two easy nights work for Ward. Finally GGG (The over hyped slavak hype job) wil get beaten easily, then Kovalev will be even easier.

There sure are lots of virtual fights these days.

I would really believe it when it happens. Ward is the best but is very slow, meticulous and conservative about it. If he does this then he will be going against everything he has done before.

I don't think either of these fights will happen

If either did tho I would have a healthy respect for ward win lose or draw

Ward called the bluff and then it was "clean out 160" when Ward disappeared suddenly GGG was willing to go to 168 AGAIN(don't forget he was eyeing Steiglitz in 2011-12). Ward returns and GGG can't go to 168 AGAIN. GGG says Ward needs to cut 8lbs from his last fight. Ward says okay, let's do it. And watch, if it doesn't happen people will blame Ward because they don't like him. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

On top of that Ward also makes it known he won't weaken the killer above him when he moves up for him next. I don't even like Ward but he's the guy that is going out of his way to make the hard fights. That should be respected by all fans. Don't watch, his style isn't for everyone but respect a man that is genuinely trying for the guys that are rumored to be feared.

I have a very high regard for Ward, and at his best he beats anyone and everyone at 168 & 175, but do you seriously believe this bullshit?
He says he's gonna fights 4 times this year , he's fought once. He says he didn't need a tune up fight and fights Paul Smith! He says his 1st fight back will be no problem at 168 and guess what? It's a fucking catch weight .
"Going out of his way to make the hard fights?" When was the last time he made a hard fight?

Ward may be a great boxer but the guy is one hell of a douche outside of the ring.
