Ward just said "you have to come to the US to be a star." What about when you're already a star like Carl Froch is? Ward will not make any more money than fighting Froch, and Carl has a much bigger fan base. Ward, if he truly wants to prove how good he is, should get on the road. Carl has already left his country, Ward needs to do the same.
For the record, I think Ward would win no matter were the fight is, but for his legacy, he might as well prove himself. If Ward comes to the UK and wins, he'll make more money down the road. If he doesn't, he'll forever be criticized for staying at home.

These yankees are always deluded; they think the whole world is america: there's 195 other countries in the world, you self-absorbed jack@$$es! One time, america was a stronghold for boxing, but no longer. Plenty of world-class boxing is taking place outside of america featuring world-class non-american fighters.

"It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog."
The Spanish tried to invade my country once, right here a couple of miles from my doorstep. We had a queen at the time and we still kicked their ass and sent them packing,.....your speaking their language.

Ward needs to cut the umbilical cord. It cannot be a business when it’s convenient and not be when its not. The money and draw are not in Oakland. The winner of the first go around in this market is pretty much irrelevant. Its not like rematches at this level are rare. Lamotta and Robinson fought six times. After all it is prize fighting and Carl brings the cash and is really the biggest fight for Ward if he plans on staying at 168. He said as much with Lampley after the fight. If Froch is not the money man of this division selling out the O2 and having Hbo travel there then I don’t know who is because Ward cannot draw scabs to a bad rash.

And yet our small country, that isn't as big as some of your states, owned you and ruled you for years.
He wasn't bad mouthing your country. He was bad mouthing the ideology that the US is where you must travel to prove your worth in boxing, while US fighters think they don't have to travel to prove anything. It is a moronic opinion when the US no longer has a stronghold on boxing.
From Danish media:
Mikkel Kessler had put everything at stake. His WBC belt, honor - and his career. Kessler had sworn that he would never return to the ring again if he lost to Carl Froch.
And it ended with defeat to Mikkel Kessler with the huge lion heart after 12 laps and judge the scores 118-110, 116-112, 115-113 in Frochs favor.
Particularly in the eighth round got Froch some hard knocks in, revealed Kessler after the fight. - It's hard to see from the outside, but I was really struck deep. It was hard for me to throw back at him after that. I had him later in the game, but I was just so tired. I really should have followed up after I hurt him in the 11th, I just could not. I was completely finished, says Mikkel Kessler.
Mikkel Kessler put up a good fight and looked for the crucial hook that could really shake Froch. But the Englishman appeared at home to be Dane's overmatch, disgusting strong, agile and opportunistic that Kessler's otherwise exemplary counterpunches was not strong enough to convince the judges in the 02 Arena in London.
In 12 and last lap took Kessler lead and landed a prestigious series on the Englishman, but the finishing touches impression handed Froch in a brilliant manner as he in the last twenty seconds forced Kessler on the ropes and landed blow after blow to the Dane.
Thus, it may end in a glorious career, 49 matches and 46 victories for Mikkel Kessler. He had the energy to smile crooked just before the official decision, for it was a Viking warrior who stood erect throughout and was very close to pushing Froch crucial over the edge.
PS Googletranslate but I think you understand anyway.

And look at the UK's ratio of champions over recent years versus the USA which is fuck knows how many times bigger and has 5 times the population! The USA's position in boxing is close to laughable for the 3rd biggest population in the world and with opportunities afforded to people
