    Showtime is making a documentary on the life of Andre Ward; will be out in 2023.

    Is this really necessary? They couldn't create one about any other boxer...maybe Barney Ross, WWII hero, got himself off drugs, world champ. Or any one of a dozen other guys?

    Sounds boring as hell. Ward had the charisma of a bucket of ice....

    I heard it’s going to be called
    “Headbutts, Nut shots & Elbows”

    Anyways SOG was an excellent boxer but I could name others I’d rather see a documentary on and that’s not being negative just my view

    Olympic gold champion and undefeated world champion in the pros. Sounds good to me. There are a lot worse documents.

    Ward got knocked down and outboxed by Kovalev.

    He's a very good fighter though. Didn't have a remarkable career as great fighters are concerned.

    Nobody will watch it. I still remember how during some Ward's press conference that was outside, people were just walking by. Not a single person gave a ****.

    Will the makers of Ambien be the top sponsor?

    All he did was win a world champ belt in two divisions. That's been done a hundred times already
