    *Gift in first Kovalev fight

    *Cheated in second

    *Gift vs Uzbek in Olympic semi's

    *Legitimate win over Makarenko in Olympic quarters

    *Toss up for Gold vs Belarus in Olympics but got UK

    *Got ran into retiremnt by Bivol and Beterbiev


    YEP he sure beat the brakes off all of them LOL Go shove you racial trolling up your bigoted ass and FYI Ward would not give your Arkansas hillbilly assthe time of day. How is your mansion and the the shack you bought your parents? Bank forclose on them yet? Give Ward a call I am sure he will toss you a few bucks for all your support.

    I never had anything against him before when he was a fighter, I was never a fan of his boxing but as far as personality goes, I never really had a reason to hate him. But ever since he started doing more commentary/punditry I have been incrementally building up a dislike for him.

    I think he's racially very biased. Like whenever he speaks about an EE boxer (especially one that's popping), he always has this begrudging/resentful attitude and a far more critical mind. When he's doing commentary and there's a black guy fighting, whenever other commentators would make slightest of criticisms towards a black fighter, he instantly downplays it and almost seems to take offense at it.

    I don't know, maybe I'm wrong here but I'm good at reading people.

    It's referees job to call shots low. This is a fight game and on that level especially things get very competitive. Kovalev should have got the not in the first fight, and the shots should have been called low in the second., But none of that is Wards fault. You clearly has something personal against the man, so you should go ahead and sort it out for yourself.

    Long as he stays being a commentator he can be as genuinely cool as he likes lol.
    To be fair he’s one of the best commentators around but he’s kidding nobody when he says he doesn’t know about Usyk.

    Yes and those in the know do happen to be the majority,only a very few who leap to Wards defence on here and most of em bring up Kovalev as if that’s the only dodgy thing they can think of about Wards career.

    After being asked about Usyk last Saturday, Ward said he heard of Usyk only 2 months ago.

    Needless to say, Ward is racially biased for sure.

    Lol stop it,we’re that so nobody would like Floyd,Spence.......the list goes on.
    Seems to be his character and him coming across as fake,nobody could level that at Floyd since he never pretended to be anything other than himself but Ward has such a high opinion of himself he calls himself SOG lol.
    You mean to say you totally believe him that he’d not heard of the current Cruiser weight champion until that night lol?

    Given how he trolled folk about coming back at Cruiser weight you can be pretty sure he’d be up on one of the divisions champions lol.
    I mean he sure knew who was Bellew was when both their names were getting mentioned right?
    Wouldn’t surprise me if there’s footage of him being asked about Usyk long before this.

    Marchent had it right about Ward re his old fashioned style of boxing that’s just not very fan friendly to watch or get behind.
    Absolute master of his trade in big fights,Froch said as much but had it right about wanting to rewatch any of Wards fights.

    Dunno I often thought he’d of gotten more love in somewhere like the U.K. than he did from his own country.
    Ward did mention the disparity between himself and Floyd in America,up with Floyd in talent but not able to draw in the numbers or get any love from the US.
    Imagine if U.K. had a guy with his record,no way would he been hated,like em loathe em they actually do back it up by paying their hard earned money to go watch em with fights selling out in a day.
    Seems to me re Ward that wether liked or loathed neither side were particularly bothered about spending their cash on going to watch him or buy his last two fights.

    :lol: I can't wait even one more second for somebody to announce this fight. That negotiations have begun. For anything that passes the bull**** filter to come up on here or some other board.

    Let's be real man, lol, you know why he's "hated" by the usual suspects. Stop playin. His nickname is one of humility, not arrogance lol. He already explained why he named himself SOG, it's because he thinks everyone in the world is a Son of God. He is an extremely religious man.

    We know why he's hated, just admit it lol.
