    You confuse me and Loudon? I don't even know what to say to that. I'm speechless. Not a knock on him but you do realize there are levels to this ****, right? How many posters exactly do you think there are up here on Tier 1?!

    Now his personality cult will only grow stronger with this undefeated narrative and Lord knows{pun intended} what else. I really did not want to go anything snarky, I should respect his retirement and accomplishments but he has left such a negative impact on me with his dirty tactics, deck stacking and preferential treatment that I cannot help myself.

    We will still hear his vanilla commentary replete with sycophant cheerleader Kellerman on HBO. Ward saw the writing on the wall and knew it was time to go especially considering the lengths he had to go getting wins in his last two fights. It would have been hard to top that level of corruption on a fight to fight basis.

    I will always dislike ward, but there is no shame at getting the hell out of this sport with your health attached after you made a lil money. I saw an interview about 1 year ago with ward and he could not stop talking about "what to do after boxing".

    I'm not the biggest fan of him, his style or the massive deck stacking which he has benefitted from throughout his career. But you can't deny his accomplishments and he's a lock for the hall of fame. This is a hard sport and if your heart isn't in it any more then there's only one think for it else you gonna get hurt.

    lol no I'm done for the time being. Even just talking about him, seeing his stupid gormless big balloon face in my mind's eye, conversing with his army of grotesque fans etc. actually makes me feel physically sick. I'm being serious. I'm no doubt sure I'll be returning to active service and heading back to the front line single-handily taking out hundreds of his groupies John Rambo style but I need to be in the right mood.

    lol Being a Ward hater is a prerequisite for being on Tier 5 never mind on one of the higher ones. So Farmy is right up there

    Crawford is possibly #1. But so could GGG. Which ever fighter wins a big fight next is p4p #1 imo.
