    Look Andre Ward is not an old school or throwback fighter. He’s a homer. Yes he’s good technically with a very fluid style but he’s no Denny Moyer in the whomever, wherever or whenever department. Froch is and that’s what is lacking today. People at the top refusing to travel. Perhaps Ward folds like a cheap lawn chair like Bute if he fought in Nottingham. He won’t go.

    Kessler- Oracle arena California (Wards backyard)

    Ref- Reis California. He never warned Ward once about using his head

    Judges
    Morrow-California
    Hook-Sweden
    Christodoulou-South Africa but a Wba lacky

    Green-Oracle arena

    Ref- Caiz Sr California

    Judges
    Sammon-California
    Polanco-California
    Feldman-Connecticut

    Bika-Oracle arena

    Ref- Stell California

    Judges
    Sammon-California
    Schorle- California
    Walton-Washington

    Abraham- Home depot California. Just a couple of hours from the Oracle

    Ref-Pabon Puerto Rico

    Judges-Abraham forced the issue using tourney rules and Ward still got the better.
    Christodoulou-SA Wba traveling judge.
    Barrabas-Germany
    JenKin-California

    Froch-Atlantic city. Carl forced the issue on judges and refs

    Ref-Smoger-NJ

    Judges
    Metcaffe-Canada 115/113
    Keane-England 118/110
    Stewart-Nj 115/113


    Dawson-Oracle arena. Fight was originally going to be in Vegas and then was changed to Wards hometown. And the weight thing. It’s funny to me that Ward would not agree to a catch weight to challenge for Dawson’s 175 title and then said after the fight that he may not be able to stay at 168 very much longer.

    Ref-Smoger NJ

    Judges
    Lederman-NY
    Mendoza-California
    Walker-California


    Now I’m not suggesting that the outcome of all of these fights would have been any different but the deck has been stacked in his favour outside of the Froch fight and that fight was close on two of those cards.
    Well you cant say definitively that the deck was stacked in Ward's favor unless youre saying all the US judges you listed are biased to US fighters.

    Now as for Ward travelling, perhaps he should BUT not just for the sake of his critics. He is the champ and that means the challanger comes to him. You want Wlad to leave Germany and fly to the UK to fight Haye? Some champs MAY travel but thats up to them.

    Anyway, in light of what happened between Dirrel and Froch in the UK, I would not go if I were Ward. Why risk a controversial decision when you dont have to??

    In fact this question is so good, I will ask it again:

    Why Risk A Controversial Decision When You Dont Have Too?
