Ward vacates 168, moving to light heavyweight.

[IamInuit]

Ward is trying to get paid a lot of money to fight poor opponents. Andre is not good enough to negicociate a deal like that. Ward should bit the bullet and fought the best in the world. He is good enough to beat them but not got the confidence to try again.

Some great points there. Its like the guy was waiting on Floyd to retire or something. He also took the reversal of the risk/reward ideal to a new level. Was unable to play bridesmaid after busting out of that shabbily run tournament. He probably expected to be neck and neck with Floyd in the PPV sweepstakes. I mean "SOG"....really? I'm sure his default response when asked about it is some practiced reference to Christ. I was half expecting him to carry a cross at some point during his self imposed exile dressed up as a bogus legal claim.

Thing is he probably was good enough to get his contract renegotiated but he had to fight first. Not sure how that escaped him.

He overplayed his hand and knackered himself. I bet the doors of his house were custom made for him to fit his head through. Now of course he will repeat that behaviour and expect different results.
The fight with Sullivan Barrera is supposed to be all but done and if I was a gambler and had the disposable income I'd throw a few bucks on Barrera. Abel Sanchez will have that Cuban ready. Even money that the fight falls apart though and Wards crew will come up with some reason.

See @Memphis @IamInuit understood what I said.
