    I'm not sure there's a venue or a date yet. Do you have reason to believe they are fighting in Oakland?

    :lol:

    Funny **** comming from you!!

    Ward fought Bika in a non tournament fight and receives 2 points because Dirrell "forfeits" their match. Yup he's not getting any preferential treatment at all :-(

    Being a top fighter for 6 years, traveling abroad without complaining, and never being knocked down make you overrated :nut:nut

    Christian: yeah I aint really got time for god botherers but there is somwthing about American Christians that have this utter self importance thing going on

    American: hell no , I ****in love the states , used to work in Boston , got married in Vegas , I'm actually a secret American

    Black : While I'm not gonna lay the " Black friends " line on you I could however show you the scars gained fighting with BNP skinheads when i was a member of the Y.A.R.E but then why would I bother justifying myself to you

    :lol:

    Alright, I guess I was out of line considering I don't know you, but the fact that he's a Christian shouldn't have anything to do with how you feel about him as a boxer. It certainly doesn't make him a "*****."

    Got me there.

    You won't be happy unless he fights Abraham in Berlin, will you?

    Vegas won't cut it. Is that right?

    Because honestly, I doubt this next one is going to Berlin. Poor Arthur has lost his leverage. His trainer called him a coward, it was all over the national media. Germany might not even be safe place for Arthur right now.

    So if I go around beating up Christians because they are Christian, that's not discrimination?

    :patsch

    Ward earned the right to fight at home by fighting at home? Pathetic. He'd have earned the right to fight at home had he gone to Denmark and beat Kessler, and realistically as a champion he wasn't going to fight Green or Bika away, but when the tournament was signed it was only fair that every fighter had to fight away at some point.

    I know Ward's deal was to fight at home, which is something Showtime seemed to try and keep quiet when he was running around saying how brilliant it was to have hometown advantage in every fight, and that may have been something one of the other promoters should have picked up on and challenged in negotiations, but when every other guy in there has fought away including the defending champions in some instances, its only right that at some point Ward has to travel.

    **** that! The fight will make way more money in Berlin than in Oakland that's for sure. I don't even understand Ward in this one. He'll most probably win over Abraham even if the fight was held on the Galapagos Islands.
