    of being the best boxer that no one knows about currently.

    Is fighting in the UK a step in the right direction? This is where Ward's idol recruited some of his best fans, so there's definitely market potential for Slick Boxers with brit fans. Froch delivers, I haven't seen brits as proud of a boxer since Hatton.

    Ward has too bland/Nice of a personality to gain a lot of casual notice.

    Hes a good fighter,and thats it.

    Hes not flamboyant personally, he doesnt throw money at people, he doesnt get brought up in court,n he doesnt tell people hes the greatest that ever lived etc etc.

    His fighting style is built on efficiency, as opposed to letting loose.

    Unfortunately, he'll prob never make the money that Floyd did.

    he is just as exciting as a floyd mayweather fight in terms of action in the ring and fights much better competition than mayweather and is paid 1/30 of what he gets....which is ****ing sad. Even Robert Guerrero made almost 3 times Wards best pay day against Mayweather. thats a travesty all in itself

    "Mayweather like problem?"

    Floyd has fought in 3/10 of the biggest PPV's of all time, I don't think he has any problem being known.

    At least Floyd makes money.

    Wards biggest pay day to date is $1.300.000

    Floyd makes 30x that. And Froch doubles it in the UK.

    EZ MONEY, ya DIG? Blat! :rofl

    Well he doesn't hav a de la Hoya to fight

    He needs to move up. Or possibly go to 160 and try tempt of of those guys at 154 to step up

    No one will though

    What's ironic is that Mayweather used to be like Ward is right now. Mayweather realized that he has to sell himself so he can get the bigger fights and the bigger paydays. Ward needs to start either talking trash and being cocky,make exciting ring entrances, being more aggressive in the ring, or a combination of the aforementioned.

    I would recommend Andre Ward to make exciting ring entrances and be flamboyant. If he does this for about 5 years he would pretty big.

    Nadeem Hamed had it all, an exciting style, flamboyant, and exciting ring entrances. That's what made him so famous at his peak.

    :rofl @ ring entrances
    yeah that will get him millions

    he needs to beat the **** out of an old guy everyone knows like floyd did who was already a ppv legend in DLH

    The UK would be a good move. His improvements on hurting and finishing fighters would serve him well.
