    You really don't wanna admit but yeah,like I knew Eubank jnr and GGG wouldn't happen from the time Eubank Snr said something about the first dollar to fall so it is with Ward,when Kellerman asked him if the fight with Kovalev was on he replied "I guess so",take it from me that is not the talk of someone wanting to fight,son of babber more like.

    Rocnation needs to get their **** together, at first I thought it was just Duva being shady. The Ward haters were criticizing himf or the wrong reason. They were going at Ward for not showing up to the press conference when Duva admitted that she was given plenty of notice that he was not going to show up since he had just fought. The real problem is rocnation going back on their promise of announcing the tickets for the T-Mobile arena. I don't really blame Ward for this situation but his promoters, they seem extremely amateurish, and they're blatantly trying to bully Duva into making the fight on Ward's home turf. Obviously we have to hear rocnation's side, but I'm just getting the amateurish feel from rocnation.

    Ward is the one who wants the fight in Oakland don't you think, why wouldn't Roc want a high profile Vegas fight

    Obviously because they think Ward would have a better chance at winning at Oracle. They want their guy to have advantages, and to win the fight. If Ward loses their investment goes down the drain. Captain Obvious out.

    You mean home refs and judges? Yeah I guess, but they're going to screw around and ruin this opportunity and Ward never be relevant again

    If Ward doesn't put his foot down if Duva just flat out refuses to fight at the Oracle, and tells Rocnation to make the fight no matter where, he deserves all the criticism in the world. But as of now, it just seems that rocnation is being amateurish, and they don't really know what they're doing, this is what I'm getting from Duva interviews.

    Do you honestly think someone at Rocnation is pushing to move fight from Vegas to Oakland without Ward himself demanding it? Sounds like you think it's out of Ward's hands but it seems clear if there is a push to bully the fight into the Oracle, it has to be coming from Ward. Why the **** would Rocnation want to move the fight out of Vegas and over to Oakland?
