    I find it strange that people are so high on Ward as he still looks a bit rubbish to me. He's an average fighter with exceptional spoiling know how. He is not a man who would ever walk on water, so the nickname just makes him look like a Bible bashing philistine. Floyd for all his annoyances truly is a great fighter and though I hate the name 'money' it is at least realistic.

    It is a fight that will never happen as Bibles and spoiling tactics just puts most people off. 'Who's that cross eyed weirdo with the butting style who thinks he is Jesus?'. It doesn't really correlate with most people who like boxing.
    I know where you are coming from, Hopkins has the same affect on me, everything about him puts me off.
    I think you have the wrong idea about SOG though. SOG does mean Jesus Christ, but a second meaning is any person responding to God or acknowledging God as Father. Rom. 8:14.
    To keep things perfectly clear, that definition and Bible ref. came straight out of Dictionary.com.
    Getting back to Ward, I like him because he does not trash talk or disrespect other fighters out side of the ring.
    Hey, I have to put up with Hopkins and you have to put up with Ward, that's boxing.
    I don't like it either.

    Personally i think Ward's handlers will have to offer Mayweather way more than 160 pound
    , Floyd will want paying way more than that.

    Why doesn't he call out Bhop? Or fight Sergio at 160? Floyd is a WW.

    Ward wants to fight a small WW at MW?

    What about all of the other guys who actually fight at 160?

    Ward is getting intimations of boxing mortality rehabbing from his shoulder surgery and is thinking about making as much as he can. He was talking about a Hopkins PPV fight too and a Mayweather fight is an even bigger fantasy than a Hopkins PPV fight. He's just really really short of lucrative options and desperate to land one.

    If you don't knock people out and you're not interesting/controversial outside the ring then no matter how good you are you're limited in how much you can earn per fight. It's his own fault for not being a cunt.

    When people are paying to watch him fight I would call the way he "fights" cuntish

    He just isn't pay per view material so he's desperately looking for a pay per view opponent. I do remember that Mayweather was in the same boat and wasn't pay per view until he fought Gatti and ruined him. He needed that opponent, but he wasn't trying to drag someone out of their comfort zone, he moved up a weight,

Yesterday, I answered a question/comment from a writer about the possibility of me and Floyd ever fighting despite our weight difference and size difference. I answered the question and said I would be willing to fight Floyd at 160 if that fight ever came about. My response was intercepted by certain websites. They took what I said and put it on their website with misleading headlines about me calling out Floyd Mayweather.

    I've been in boxing a long time and rule number 1 is you don't call somebody out that's three weight classes lower than you. You also don't call somebody out who has a fight coming up, and I'm not in a position to call anybody out right now because I'm rehabbing my shoulder. I'm not a guy that says things for shock value or says things to get headlines. I respected what Floyd has done for the sport before he said what he said and I respect what Floyd has done for our sport after he said what he said. We had a difference and that's what it is. What I'm not going to allow to happen is this thing to escalate and there be some long-standing beef or problem between me and Floyd Mayweather when that's not the case, so it's done. I don't have no problems with Floyd Mayweather. It was squashed the other day. I answered the question and it got blown way out of proportion.

    At the end of the day, this isn't about me. The fans shouldn't be focused on me and Floyd. They should be focused on Floyd Mayweather and Robert Guerrero. They got a big fight coming up. It's a fight that's good for both fighters and it's a fight that's good for boxing. May the best man win.

    Ward has been turned down by Hopkins and with good reason as Ward is a younger version of B Hop and would beat him. Ward now seems to want to take on Floyd, if he could make the weight he would be too big for Floyd. The fight will not happen, and if Floyd can fight at middleweight he should take on Sergio, the real middleweight champion.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Good to see someone with ethics who refuses to engage in the inane shit-talking that is so fashionable now adays.

    Pound for pound? You guys are nuts. Ward doesn't do a single thing Floyd isn't better at and he isn't NEARLY as athletic.

    ..never happen.

    Seriously, this welterweight wouldn't even fight other elite welters, called up little guys and old men (and then further stacked the deck against his handpicked opponents.)

    Dolts.
