    Ward fans on couple of proposed fights:

    Ward-Bute: Bute doesn't deserve it.
    Ward-Dirrell: Dirrell is a friend of Ward.
    Ward-Dawson: Dawson should fight Pascal instead.
    Ward-Kessler 2: YEA GREAT FIGHT LET IT HAPPEN!

    the ****?
    Ward should fight Bute if Bute beats Froch but Bute and Froch are signing two fight deal and **** who the hell does that?
    Which Dirrell are you talking about?
    Dawson should fight Pascal dont you agree?
    If Dawson vs Ward happens fine it will be a awful fight to watch both they are both accomplished

    Ward Kessler never understood why that fight would happen again ward beat the **** out of kessler

    There's no two fight deal for Bute Froch. Bute has a rematch clause, big difference.

    Ward - Dawson cannot happen because they both have contracts with different networks.

    Showtime is holding out for Bute - Ward, that's the whole reason they're not showing the Froch fight, because then Bute will still be under contract and they will have the leverage to force a Bute - Ward showdown.

    I think FAT DAN said nothing is really holding Ward to Showtime. Bute has one fight left with Showtime but he was allowed to negotiate with HBO for his fight with Froch HBO just didnt want that ****

    What I mean by those is that majority of Ward fans constantly make up excuses for Ward for God knows what reason. Even here look at this, apparently it is alright to drain your opponent if he says he is willing to be drained to make the fight happen.

    Real Ward fan's opinions:
    Ward-Bute: after Bute faces one top contender while Ward heals
    Ward-Dirrell: love to see it but is a personal choice
    Ward-Dawson: good scrap, but would rather see Dawson avenge his Pascal loss
    Ward-Kessler 2: proves nothing but shuts up his Euro based detractors momentarily

    Please don't pretend to know something you don't.

    so ward doesnt want to fight the lineal champ one division above him? champions should want to fight the best

    i believe if and when floyd fights martinez it will be at 160 ... anything else is all risk and very little reward. at least at 160 he's the lineal champ in yet ANOTHER division and one of few to win titles from 130-160

    he'd be doing himself a favor too by becoming the lineal champ in a second weight class with a victory

    Yeah and Gatti said he would beat Mayweather. Fighters are very confident persons. I'm sure his promoter won't be as confident and will protect him of making a big mistake.

    Ward-Dawson is premature at this point. Ward-Bute (if he wins against Froch) for the SMW supremacy + Dawson-Pascal to avenge his only loss and the supremacy of the LHW. Then, Ward or Bute take a fight or 2 at LHW to acclimate to the new weight and then, we've got a real big fight.

    Showtime has the right to match any offer made by HBO. At least for Ward's next fight. Of course, if HBO puts all its marbles in ard-Dawson, Showtime won't be able to follow. Is Ward-Dawson a super mega fight in terms of promotion? I don't think so. Unles Bute gets rid of his contract in facing an American (Hopkins or one of the Dirrell brothers), the best match for Ward is tied with Showtime and it's the place where to face him. I think Showtime would pay them a very good amount and expect to see that fight this year.

    Ward fans what are you talking about? Why did you quote me then say that ****? Why the hell would Ward go up when Dawson said he would go down and Ward holds all the cards? Their are weight division for a reason So you want the klitchkos to call out Dawson?

    Ward fans what are you talking about? Why did you quote me then say that ****? - Forget about this, I think jeffjoner understood what I was implying.

    Why the hell would Ward go up when Dawson said he would go down and Ward holds all the cards? - To make the fight fairer.

    Their are weight division for a reason So you want the klitchkos to call out Dawson? - I don't see how this holds any relevance and don't even see what you are trying to say here.
