    Most said it would never happen. Didn't think it would myself.

    Thats what a fighter should be all about. Couldn't get Bumlovkin so goes after The Krusher.

    He's made an embarrassment out of GiGi

    Nothing happened yet, calm down there K2 fanboy.
    Ward signs a piece of paper with HBO and still has no opponent for Nov 21st, that's as far as you need to look.

    They're looking at Cedrick Agnew

    Rafael indicated Ward's preference for an orthodox fighter, and not a southpaw. So I'm not sure it will wind up being Agnew.

    But as Dan also said in the article, I'm not sure why the NSAC are being blow-hards about a tune-up.

    Well, pretty sure if this comes to fruition that 90% of you look like idiots.

    "Ward is scared,"
    "Ward will never fight 9G,"
    "Ward would kill himself before fighting Kovalev,"
    "Ward will never fight a ranked opponent again,"
    "Ward is retired,"
    "Ward will never fight at 175,"
    "Ward is terrified of Eastern Europeans/Asians,"
    "Ward has no intentions of ever fighting the best."

    You're clowns.

    Now maybe one of them lose before then or a suspicious injury withdrawal, but as of now, all signs point to you fellas being dumba$$es.

    I have heard only one tenth of the amount of conversation about Ward since this deal hit the news... I think it's a touch of both shame and nerves. Keep quiet, I guess.

    Nothing wrong with Agnew imo. He gave Kovalev 7 rounds. I'm not opposed to him facing some blow over but im glad Murdock got declined.
    Ward can do better than that.

    But its still not right that other guys can fight Murdocks of the world but Ward can't.

    Ward is going to get savagely KOed and is a ***** for delaying the fight for a year. That is an absolute joke.

    I agree. Where have they been to stop the other countless mismatches?

    This is the best news I've heard in a while in boxing. Ward haters won't like the fact that he has the ***** to fight Kovalev.:yep
