Will the Son of Sven finally man up and do what all the other S6 fighters have done(some more than once) and fight Arthur away from home in Germany?
Showtime ought to DEMAND that this fight is held in Germany. It wont happen tho. I guarentee that Andre Ward will never fight outside of America maybe even California his entire overated career. Interesting to see what happens here. Abraham put him foot down when Froch tried to dictate venues to him so hopefully he does the same with Ward
You guys need to stop, STFU and take a chil pill. In fact, lets ask a few questions based in Common Sense and Logic. Who did Ward fight in Oakland? Kessler (an original Super 6 fighter right) and the rest were replacements (Green and Bika) neither one had any leverage what-so-ever...SO STOP TRIPPIN'!!! I am quite Sure the fight with Abraham will happen in a neutral site in Europe.
This tournament has shown how big the home advantage is, so it's only right that, sooner or later, Ward fight abroad. Even if the Dirrell fight did happen, that would also have been in America, so he's yet to face any sort of additional adversity. Not only has he had the crowd behind him, but also the referees and judges have looked biased, so it really does need to change. If Showtime originally said that the semi's and final will be in America, change it. Simple as that. For the sake of the tournament, the semi against Abraham, who is coming off two straight losses, should be in Germany.
I agree 100%. There's NO REASON WHATSOEVER why Showtime cannot change their minds. They have already made it up as they go along with all these stupid replacements for just one fight
*stops* *taking chill pill* Nope that didn't work I still think it is unfair and that Ward should take a flight to Germany and stop acting like a pampered baby. It's not like he wouldn't be able to defeat Abraham in Germany anyway...
I'm gonna go ahead and guess that the guy who won a gold medal in Greece in 2004 can **** up European fighters in Europe with judges that dislike Americans. It's a hunch.
If AA knocks the **** out of BillyGoat Ward in Oakland, who goes through to the final? (ie it's ruled a draw)
ward was obscure 2 fights ago, now people have 'green-eyed monster' syndrome about him just because his promoter was smart setting him up in the super6
