    You're a bit late to the party.

    Ward will be a distant memory in years to come, that there is little doubt. Many will only know him as the man who won a boxing fight on an illegal low blow stoppage.

    Beyond that, only the few die hards and Ward loyalists will remember what he did in the super six, which took place aeons ago before he decided to sit on the sidelines for over 5 years.

    When Ward was basically retired for two years, this forum couldn't help itself from bitching and moaning about him.
    He made plenty of waves to be remembered.

    This forum isn't the world. It's a small community and outside of it no one even knows who Ward is.

    Ask your neighbor who Andre Ward is and they will give you a confused look.

    Meanwhile GGG is transcending the sport itself, whose name is on everyone's lips, to where A-list actors are wearing his merchandise.

    And i will ask my neighbour who Golovkin is, and they will have that same confused look.
    Its a stupid argument on your part.
    Yes, Golovkin is clearly the more popular fighter, but this is not about him.
    Ward left his mark and he wont be forgotten.

    you do realize you're only projecting your own disdain for ward, rather than anything more substantial, don't you?

    Sure he will.
    Ward will be talked about for years to come, and his precence in the sport will keep annoying you.
    Because thats who you are, a simpleton.

    Among the casual, many popular fighters aren't gonna be remembered,
    history doesn't treat most boxers very kind, period.

    Among boxing circles, Ward was highly celebrated by his peers (other boxers)
    and boxing pundits. He'll be remembered just like every other boxer that isn't
    a cross over sensation.

    That's your response to a close decision, is to cry for a year and say everyone is corrupt? LOL
    According to you, before both fights, Ward was going to get destroyed! Some of you claimed Ward would never step in the ring with Kovalev. You dummies honestly believed that Ward would never see the final bell! LOL you guys were wrong on all accounts! Instead of being men about the outcome, you claim there was misconduct and never gave Ward credit for proving you wrong! At the very least you could have acknowledged that Ward scraped it out and came back strong in the first fight.LOL Now look at you..... Ward is retired with all of Kovs belts and his man hood. Got Kov going into his next fight without a trainer in his corner LOL Kov better get his act together or he will be left in the cold!

    If Kov honestly believed he did so well against Ward, why would he turn on his trainer? Usually a fighter drops his trainer when he gets whooped or was given the wrong game plan. I think Kov had doubts about the first fight and it manifested in the second with a comprehensive ass whoopin from Ward! Ward>Kovalev!!!

    ^^^^^ :D Lol! It bothers the **** out of you that the vast Majority feel Sergey won that first fight and lost because of blatant corruption in the second fight. The ref, the back acne on Ward etc. Do you really not think people can see and judge for themselves on those fights?? Lol It’s like you people think the bull**** official scores are THE ONLY thing people go by and can’t think for themselves! Lol

    “B.. Bu.. But he got da W doe! Deal With it!”

    Lol Nah. A bull**** result is a bull**** result. And crap like the Kovalev vs Ward fights and the recent GGG vs Canelo fight are making more people take notice. Your tactic of just pointing out the official result is weak to say the least. It’s a DUMB rebuttal especially in this day and age. But then again I wouldn’t expect any less from posters like you ;)

    LOL I always said Kov won the first fight! Bu,bu, you a Ward fan doe! LOL
    The only problem I had was you fools crying like it was some huge robbery when it wasn't and not giving Ward respect. He proved you guys wrong by taking the fight and finishing the fight. 2 facts you care not to discuss. Instead you cry foul play and say Ward took PED's, bought off the judges, ref and commission! Yet provide absolutely no proof of this! Until you show the proof STFU

    The second fight was a straight up ass whoopin! Bu bu John David Jackoson told the Ward camp Kov's weakness doe! LOL Ward>Kovalev. Add to the fact that Kov is still the best light heavy in the game when his mind is right! Shows how good Ward really was. I sure am gonna miss Ward! He made all you cry forr a damn near a year straight. The ass whoopin that keeps on giving! LOL
