Andre Ward is officially off his rocker

[IamInuit]

Andre Ward tells Carl Froch: £50m London superfight fine for me | The Sun |Sport|Boxing

That is a hundred million dollars. No need to say anything else.

[Vendettos]

Lol, Froch tell him to fuck off.

Froch doesn't need the Ward fight, but Ward needs Froch.

Who sells those tickets? Froch.
Who has most belts? Froch.


Seriously who else does ward fight? Whereas Froch has A LOT of options.

Plus this way it'll always go down that Ward was a home fighter who ducked Froch.

You're right except that the last sentence is completelely ridiculous.

Why? He was stripped of his belt, but he won't travel to win 2?
Then makes a ridiculous statement that he wants £50 million(which he knows he won't get)

How much did his highest paid fight make him? Now he's asking for Mayweather type money? Which is ridiculous because he's boring as shit.

How's is that not ducking someone? Most fighters would bite your hand off to win a world title and go anywhere.

So I'm sorry but in my definition of 'ducking', someone not going to fight for 2 belts because they don't wanna fight abroad, is about as clear as it gets

He has already whipped Froch's ass, that's all. "Ducking" really doesn't apply. I agree that Ward should rematch him the UK, absolutely. It's a tough spot to be in I guess though, being the top guy in the division but not having a lot of draw.

I understand what you're saying but your not understanding my point.

He wouldn't be ducking because he is scared.

I mean he would be ducking because he doesn't want a disadvantage.

Remember 2 judges scored it 113-115, so it wasn't as bad as you make it sound in the first fight.

How easy would that have been to make Froch' fight if it was in the uk?

That's why he's ducking.

[p4pking]

Ok, but that also adds to my point. Ward actually won the fight by a good deal more than that. Froch may well have gotten the decision if that fight had been in the UK, which is exactly why Ward may be wary of going.

[Vendettos]

Yes, ducking.

Froch went to the USA so who's manner?

This is why I hate Ward, he's not a champion, he's good at getting the win, but shit to watch.

He is a repellant to PPV. How anyone can call themselves a boxer or the number 2 p4p and won't travel for 2 belts I will never know.

The ward fight was a 115-113 decision just as much as the kessler fight was a 118-110 decision, which is to say not at all unless you live in bizarro world and you wrote down some random scores and said fuck scorring a fight. Ward asking for fifty million tho is complete insanity, dude must have started doing some hardcore drugs, maybe just to get people talking, because there is no way he can be serious! I mean hell wlad is a BIG draw in germany and he only make like ten or fifteen mil a fight.

Haye said on ESPN that Wlad got 7 million for fighting him.

Nowhere in that article does Ward say £50m. In fact, they are direct quotes from his Sky interview. The Sun are trying to make it sound like this fight would draw that money in PPV & merchandise sales as well as gate attendance and their fees for the fight. Just Sun bullshit to make their article sell. The paper knows jack shit about boxing. That is why Frank Warren is their boxing columnist.

[Master]

Ward will fight Froch because that is the biggest fight out there for him. Carl can fight all the crap out there but he will want to avenge his defeat sooner or later. I think Carl will duck out against Ward because he knows he will lose. Simple.

What does an average British football stadium hold attendance wise?

Wembley holds about 90,000.
Old Trafford about 75 000
Most Premiership grounds hold about 30-40 000
the next league down about 25, 000 capacity per stadium
the next league up to about 20 000
and the bottom league between 5000 and 20 000 depending on the club and it's history/catchment area
