Ward vs Bika in oakland proves clearly that is the reason why Ward vs Dirrell didn't

    Was the fight gonna be in Bika's hometown of somewhere****, Cameroon? They picked the venue based on highest revenue possible. Ward sells out in Oakland, way more than even Dirrell does in Detroit. Hell, Bika should be willing to take the fight anywhere considering his recent DQ.

    Rayhogan, how do you deal with being so stupid?

    It takes two for a friendship, in fact, Ward is benefiting more than Dirrell, so I agree, Ward should get the most of the critique, which he surprisingly doesn't get. That is because for some odd reasont he US press and fans stand behind Ward when IMO Dirrell is just a better guy for boxing, more charisma, more exciting style and isn't dirty. Too bad he pulled out whatever the reason is. But despite my suspicion, I still waiting to see his next fight.

    No one is going to argue against that but two wrongs dont make a right. We'll get more clarification if Dirrell is indeed faking his injury if he were to comeback in 12-18 months especially on a HBO contract.

    Yea i'm stupid in which i'm the one that mention about the rumar of Ward fear of flying in which is in fact the truth. I mean seriously why else would showtime even let Ward fight all his fights at home? It's stupid. Kessler i bet draws more in denmark then Ward can in oakland. If you think all of this is fair then you must be good friends with ******s like farmboxer.

    Someone before mentioned Athens. Clearly Ward can perform and be dominant overseas. Obviously he should fight at different venues, but fiscally this makes the most sense by a country ****ing mile. It's not like Bika is a draw anywhere.

    I've heard the planes thing also; not sure if I buy it but I understand someone being afraid of flying in a pressurized piece of steel propelled by explosions at 100s of miles per hour thousands of feet above the ground.

    If i was gettin annoyed that somebody was once again getting their own way and it all seemed dodgy the 1 place id like to get them is in a boxing ring so i had the chance to smash their face in.

    I wouldnt run away.

    Come on guys the americans have let this tournament down BIG TIME.

    The Europeans have kept up their side of the deal and played fair, the americans (JT apart) have been an embarrasment to the sport in all this.

    If Kess hadn't been headbutted into submission in andre wards living room it'd be all looking a bit embarrassing for the us. And if dirrell hadn't feigned injury and dizzyness he'd have gone the way of JT.

    At least taylor went out on his sword unlike the two cheats.

    How did he get to his pro fights on Carribean Islands? Drive across the US and then a boat?

    This just tells me what I suspected and how stupid so many are on these threads.
    So many slate Calzaghe whom in 22 SMW title fights only had around 11 at home and not as many as Ward has had at the same stage of their careers. Calzaghe defended in 4 foreign countries to him.

    Now you have Calzaghe slagged off while so many praise Ward for fighting Joes left overs.
    Joe beat an undefeated healthy Kessler, when past his prime - Ward beats an already exposed, rusty, double vision suffering fighter with illegal headbutts 2 years later and people go crazy

    After beat A Green who had already been beaten by E Miranda, the hype machine went completely crazy :patsch

    Now after Calzaghe has put the first genuine loss on Bikas record, later to have Bute follow suit, now you have Ward fighting a seriously rusty Bika who wont have had 2 completed rounds in 2 years by the time they fight. :patsch. Its become a joke with all the praise now.

    Showtime knew what they were doing with Ward. I can't see how four promoters who have lived boxing for 20 odd years apiece can be stupid enough to overlook home town advantage - **** that just doesn't happen, no four people can be that stupid.

    And that is why this S6 we now know was engineered to wrangle the belts away from champs to Ward. Three fights at home? Head butting allowed? **** even his best mate withdrew knowing he'd get robbed at the least.

    Ward is a joke and his fans are hypocrites.

    LOL yeah :lol::lol::lol:, everybody blaming Euro fighters not fighting outside their country, but if an US fighter do that, it's justified because he is fighting in the US the mecca of boxing LOL LOL LOL!!

    Very credible indeed, new hope for US and especially in HW division -> Mason "The Line" Dixon = the hope of American HW


    But still Dirrell is still a ****ing *****!!
