    I rate him in my top 5 pound per pound fighters list, he left a lasting legacy that Floyd fanatics will never forget ;)

    :thinking: I found it embarrassing that Floyd kept turning his back on Conor and bumping into his dong. A hidden message?

    Floyd went gay after CJ cucked him... Ms. Jackson also called out last weeks fight for what it was, fake scripted trash! :lol:

    Ward can't retire. He hasn't made nearly enough money after taxes and expenses. Besides there are some good money fights for him to be made.

    They'll find a way to make the Adonis unification fight. Too much money and Haymon knows he has to cash out Stevenson soon. Also, Stevenson was afraid of Sergey but Sergey could literally end his life - he was scared shiitless. He's not afraid of Ward. Ward will outpoint him and nothing else. Also andre has a weak chin and Adonis knows he can crack it. Thats a solid , big money fight for Ward and everyone needs it.

    Bellew and Usyk are both possible afterwards. We've far from heard the end of him.

    BTW
    Battering-ram head butting can be traumatic to the scalp as well. A miracle Ward hasn't noticeably gone bald from so many cranial impacts. Maybe the only side effect from so many thunderous thuds might be that constant sleepy, semi-concussed look in his eyes.

    Man, it's 2017 - how on earth is he still going?

    There should be an age limit/number of losses (in a bad fashion) you can take before the boards don't allow you to fight.

    Add locker room and gym-membership fees, salary for the trainer, cut man, manager and promoter, medical expenses such as cat scans and x-rays to make sure everything's in order to the taxes and he's lucky to have money enough left over to afford a decent set of trunks for his next fight.

    You should be embarrassed of yourself for dong watching instead of watching the fight.
