    So you all think your word means nothing, got it.

    Wards friend was robbed by Goosen. I don't even like Ward. I think Christianity is moronic and full of obvious glaring holes. A story that intelligent children should say wait, this doesn't add up. But the bible thumper is right.

    Let's push the best fighter in the division to the side for having honor. Welcome to boxing fandom.

    Ward lost a $10 million dollar law suit to his promoter, that's 10 fights for Ward as he does not
    generate, very large purses to pay that off.
    He's needs mega fights, he does not sell well on PPV I think he's knackerd, the longer it
    goes the older he gets.

    It's hard to talk about honor. Why doesn't his friend sue Goosen for breach of contract? I'm no expert but it's probably because they think there's a high risk he'd lose the suit and the only leverage they have is Ward's contract with Goosen. If that's the case, there's probably a chance that he wasn't "robbed" -- at least not under the law. By permitting Ward's career to be kept on ice, Ward has lost the ability to earn a living. It seems his friend should do the honorable thing and let Ward resume his career.

    Quite frankly, I always thought Goosen did a great job with Ward. He helped him turn into a decent regional attraction in Oakland. Got him all home games in the Super Six, multiple 7 figure pay days, all with a style that isn't always fan friendly. To the extent his friend and Goosen, who did right by him otherwise, have beef, Ward should have tried to close the gap and settle the differences. He failed at that for what it's worth.

    I'm just gonna call bullshit because I do admit that Ward is boring as shit to most but technically he is the best @ super middle weight and there no one who could beat Ward. All the fans say he's boring and its a fact that he's not a big draw ticket wise. So promoters are not willing to pay a lot of money to make a main event like they should cause its too expensive!!! Andre Ward is one of my favorite fighters but the way I see it he's retired until further notice!!!! Oh yea and with Ward trying to Sue its not gonna make it any better.
