Ward vs Kovalev 2..Money

[Pastor John]

I read that Ward's team is potentionally stating there really isn't a rematch clause. If they do pass on the Kovalev fight for now I'd hope he'd fight Stevenson and the Kovalev after that.

[Master]

Kov should just stay active and fight Stevenson or whoever to win back a title and force Ward for the rematch but ask for more money.

Ward needs Kov as no one really wants to watch Ward unless it is someone that presents a challenge to him.

Ward might retire anyway..

ANDRE WARD SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING RETIREMENT: "I DON'T HAVE TO FIGHT ANYMORE...IT MAY BE TIME TO WALK AWAY" || FIGHTHYPE.COM

[Master]

He is doing the Floyd retire threat. I highly doubt he will on such a high. He will make a number of defenses first.

[Nameless]

He's gonna have some bargaining power for the one and only reason that Ward doesn't draw jack and shit at the gate. He will have a bigger part because he's the champion but the fact that he doesn't drag noting, where Kovy does a lot, means that they will be willing to let a little go so he makes money.

"Seriously considering retirement"??

News flash, Ward:

You're already retired... at least in some fans' minds.
Let's see now...

1 fight in 2012
1 fight in 2013
ZERO fights in 2014
1 fight in 2015
two bums in 2016, leading up to.....
1 good, but VERY controversial fight against Kov (with ZERO chance of a rematch)


Yep... time to wrap up a career.

Good riddance and don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.

[Ron Swanson]

Seriously people, stop talking about bargaining. It's all already agreed. It was in the rematch clause as I said it would be because that's how contracts work. Kathy confirmed the numbers are all agreed already.

When we let simple stuff become a debate promoters get to spread their lies in with all the other confusion. Keep the simple stuff simple.

And had already retired himself for years. I can't see him going out now
