    He's rejecting the biggest payday in his whole career. It's a financial duck (one of the most typical ducks in the book).

    Arum confirmed that the Lomachenko-Walters fight would've been at 130lbs!
    I've got nothing but respect for Lomachenko agreeing to fight at 130lbs even though his prime weight class is 126lbs and hasn't had the opportunity to make a legacy there.

    Lomachenko is looking for other opponents in the meantime; he is booked for 11th June at MSG and will definitely be fighting then. It would be so frustrating if he fights another Piri Piri Pingu, Gammy Liar or Ko Ass Chair.

    Ward? Ward ducks no one. The others are shameless duck artists.

    Ward doesn't duck. He has one of the best records in the sport right now and is scheduled to fight Kovalev.

    I haven't heard that Crawford is ducking anybody. It would be nice to see him in there against Broner, Provodnikov, Matthysse, Postol, or Pacquiao though. At least one of those ought to be doable.

    Rigondeaux is like Ward, not a ducker. He has been shamefully ducked ever since he beat Donaire. Part of that is other people's fault, but a lot has to do with his choices of promoters. Caribe just doesn't know how to manage a top level talent and explodes any deal that more capable hands put together.

    Walters isn't ducking.

    The miserly old snake Arum isn't paying his boxers what they deserve for big fights.

    Walters and Loma would be better off breaking away from him, like Mayweather and De La Hoya did years ago.

    What a ****ing joke. I'm really wondering if Loma is rueing his decision to go pro at this point.

    Ward ducked Stevenson, Bute, rematch to Froch and Kessler. If he fights Kovalev, which I doubt he will, all those will be forgotten.

    It's a shame. The Loma ducking has been a disgrace.

    Walters wants this fight bad but he aint gonna bend over and let Arum **** him. Let the old snake get his wallet out and make a realistic offer.

    No way he is ducking the guy that got his sh!t pushed in by an old, fat Salido :oops: Walters wrecks this kid.

    Probably, go from fighting the best to barely fighting at all against no hopers. How ****ing lame, I thought this year would be good but this is the year of ducking it seems.

    Who has Ward ducked and Wilder is stepping up to fight Pov in Pov's own back yard! I know it's been a long time waiting for DW but, Ward has a great resume and is fighting a young tough guy in Barerra and if he wins, will be fighting Kov! whatcha want! Broner has fought some tough guys too! He may not have won but he's not afraid to get out there and fight decent guys!

    $300,000, for a PPV co-headliner? Please, he's not fighting for Dana White.
