    you have a point. The fight can be made in New York or even in Canada, but if it`s made in New York they should have neutral officials(referee and judges)

    Lets think here for a sec.

    Sakio Bika. Not part of the super 6. Home is Cameroon. Should that fight have been held in Cameroon?

    Allan Green. Allan Green's home town? From Oklahoma. Could have been Oklahoma City.

    Mikkel Kessler. Could have been in Denmark. Not sure how home court advantage was decided.

    Agreed. But, then again, it should always be that way.

    For the record, I give AA zerrrro credit at 168, so Ward will take this one.

    i have a feelin that if AA gets his head right, that he will brutally expose the latest american hypejob by ferocious ko.

    The most amusing thing here is that the excellent Sven Ottke was criticised for fighting in Germany, but Ward is just fighting in Joakland, not even any other part of America

    I have a feeling that if AA doesn't brutally KO Ward and that in fact Ward schools AA (which is very likely to happen) you will say that you "knew all along that Froch ruined AA for good".

    It's not really very amusing first and foremost because it's false.

    I invite you to scan Boxrec, where it conveniently shows where Ward has been fighting.

    All over America!

    Badly wanted to vote for the 1st option but Ward will only fight outside the US if hes obliged to honour a contract agreement from the Super6.

    The majority of people wouldnt give a **** about Home advantage if....

    Ward had not got away with the foul tactics he showed against Kessler and...

    B if the scorecards had not been so wide in his favour against Bika.:good

    Abraham fought his last 2 fights abroad.. Froch fought 3 out of his last 4 abroad..

    Johnson is the "road warrior"

    Ward is the hometown Showtime posterboy.. he`ll NEVER fight abroad.

    3? WTF ? he has 3 fights in the Super 6 and the taylor fight was in Germany. The Dirrell fight was abroad and humiliation was on a neutral grown! So, Am I missing something ?
