    Bad fight....but what else do you expect. Ward's last fight was in 2013, he was always gonna take a tune up.

    I don't see how this fight is gonna make any money at all

    Ward is an ****, he is not a draw in boxing.

    If there was ever a fight where a fighter had a 0% chance of winning it's this one

    I must be the only man on the planet who thinks smith may have a chance.
    He's obviously been cherry picked so that Andre can look impressive on his first run out in a long long time.

    However, and I know it's a massive however ... ward has been so in active for so long, who knows what he's got left?

    Let's be honest , smith was believed to be way out of his depth first time around against Abraham, but he showed a lot of people he's not just about making up the numbers.
    With Ward , it's highly unlikely Andre will come out throwing bombs , not his game is it.. His game is speed, reflexes & all round movement... Things that are notoriously the first thing to go in an inactive fighter.

    So who knows, yes a major major ask & arguably the biggest upset of the century if Smigga pulls it off... But I don't think it's as plain sailing as you'd believe.

    Bull, he never fights, Even Mayweather the other day said he would not promote him and would rather have Broner. I did not say Ward was not a good fighter but he has a personality that makes Scott Quigg look like Elton John...!

    Paul,you don't stand a chance.

    Stop eating at byrnes chippy every night and get yourself down to middleweight were you belong.
