    He knows every fight that he fights will be a fighter closer to the kovalev one so by him calling this one of he still has 3 fights left i doubt he will even end up fighting kovalev

    It was not even a injury it was just a inflammation ward said this himself 6 days ago live on fight game

    Why cant ward just fight kovalev why does he keep trying to delay the fight kovalev would fight him today but can the same be said for ward?

    What he faked an injury for was the fight was taking place outside Cali and he was worried about being exposed as a PED cheat

    Knew this would happen, Ward saying it wasn't an injury was just an invitation for criticism, he should really learn to understand how his words will be taken out of context and used against him and be more aware of what he says.

    Ward IS injured, he can say it's not an injury and just inflammation but inflammation is a symptom of an injury unless of course Ward has arthritis which seems unlikely.

    Hopefully Ward is already making plans for a fight early next year and doesn't do what he has been doing this year and just sitting on his ass for months wasting his prime and then at the last minute put a fight together when someone forces him to.

    I'd start getting inflammation if they said that I had to fight Kovalev

    Wouldn't it be a lot easier to just stay @168?

    If he was going to fight him anyway, I don't see why he'd need to delay it..

    He enters into the ring near 190 as a SMW....

    A lot easier to make 175.

    Which he might be having trouble since he wasnt cutting due to not having an approved opponent til the last minute.

    Was probably just trying to save face. :-(

    This is just a pre-conceived notion being set into play. Anything Ward does will somehow, and mysteriously, be construed to assume he's ducking Kovalev. You guys just don't like him, happens all the time with every fighter.
