It's not the governing body's fault he's been out of the ring so long, and it's not the Fan's fault either.
And the new!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why not talk about GG and Froch.
I thought the Smith fight was for the title.
Because GGG and Froch haven't been calling each other out, with Froch actually saying it's not realistic. Keep up Corvette, I've told you all this before!
I read that when the fight was made, it wouldn't be for the title, that might've changed , it hardly matters.
My point is, that Ward is a great Boxer, and no doubt he would beat GGG and Froch pretty handily when he's anywhere near the top of his game.
However, if you think you need a tune up fight after so long out of the ring , fine, but don't go bullshitting and calling people out if you have no intention of following through.
Also , as much as I like Ward as a Boxer, I think that he isn't as clever as he thinks he is and has tried to dictate to promoters etc. and consequently fucked up the best earning years of his career. If he was in a shit contract with Goosen, get through it , don't re-sign and learn from it when negotiating his next one. A perfect example that he should've taken was Floyd. He wasn't happy with Bob Arum, he bought himself out of the contract, took the hit, and has moved forward and never looked back since. That's how you do it, now he is in total control.
He needs to talk less , get back between the ropes REGULARLY and do what he does best, and that is hand out boxing lessons.
