    LOL. Thanks for letting me know you are a Type 4. So am I. But just because I am Type 4, as you define it, does not mean I am a Willie Pep fan.

    I don't mean no harm, but the way you described yourself you aren't a fan of boxers who use the sweet science, such as BHOP, Mayweather, Toney, Ward, etc., but prefer the sluggers like Maidana, GGG, Kovalev, Porter, etc.:yep

    I wouldn't put Toney in with Ward, Bhop and PBF. I liked watching Toney fight.

    Kovalev is a PPV material, Ward ain't (terrific fighter, though).

    Kovalev vs agnew did same numbers as ward vs rodriguez, kovalev is actually a bigger draw now than Ward and GGG does much better numbers than ward , btw GGG networth more than andre ward's. More people watch kovalev and GGG than ward and hopkins.

    no one knows who sergey is...so there is truth to what ward is saying.

    a fight with ggg or chavez would be ppv.

    Ward is certainly following the footsteps of Floyd to duck fighters and become TBE

    some of you are ridiculous and have no clue what you're talking about.

    the man fights at 168. kovalev is at 175. no one is stopping kovalev from dropping to 168 to challenge ward. ward is the more established fighter with the greater accomplishments. it's kovalev that stands to gain from the fight. ward will fight at 175 when making 168 isn't an option anymore. waiting on fight against chavez and ggg, both which are much bigger financially, makes business sense.

    ward choosing to weigh his options and fight who he wants when he wants is clearly his choice. there is no second crack at getting this right. he's not responding emotionally to fans. he's treating this like it's his business. he has a family to feed.

    Waiting for fights that might never happen might not be the best business plan. I honestly think Ward would make more money if he moved up and attempted to clear out 175. There are quite a few good fights to be made there, becoming #1 in two weight divisions looks good on the resume and I think Ward would gain popularity. Moving up in weight helped make RJJ, Pac and Floyd into stars. Sometimes you have to go where the fights and money is and right now there isn't much at 168.

    i'm just glad that people are seeing Ward for what he truly is. i've been saying for years now, but most were still riding this moron's jockstrap.

    he's clearly not right in the head. he's unhinged.

    he needs to step away from the media and stop giving them his views, otherwise he won't be getting any fights at all due to being the most pathetic man in sports. if you can call him a man that is.

    no, he needs to fight just so i can see this piece of dirt get broken up and knocked the **** out. i don't want him to get away with what he did to Kessler. he needs to get punished for that.

    Andre is not only the most pathetic piece of **** INSIDE the ring, he's also the most pathetic piece of **** OUTSIDE of the ring as well.

    just full time clown.

    i'm actually shocked that there is someone in existence that is so pathetic with everything they do and say. just shocked.

    What makes this funny is that Andre Ward is the fighter that no one will pay to see. Kovalev, Froch, Chavez, etc. actually have a fan base.

    Ward is the most delusional boxer of the last 10 years.
