Anyone else not going to watch Ward in the future?

Yes, why not? It's the refs job to ref the right.

 

hes a top tier fighter.. but very dirty its sad really. he has amazing talent could be great without the clinching,headbuts,low blows and not to mention huge ego and arrogance outside the ring. i'll watch but be rooting against him .

 

Serious question - did you pay for the PPV?

 

I think you and everyone else on this board will watch his future fights. You all are going to tune in hoping he gets his comeuppance. Face it. Everyone on this board is addicted to boxing so stop talking that nonsense.

 

I think you,ve got to hand it to ward. Hes a great fighter. Not great to watch but i ve seen worse and he gets the job done. Looks tainted but hes got the win regardless. Personally thought he won the first fight against kov. He came back from getting a bit of an early shellacking to win it. Hes quietly went about his business for years beating decent names. Went up a weight and defeated a guy heavily tipped to beat him...regardless of the manner. Think at this point...hes earned the right to some credit.

 

The media is always eager to protect a well spoken, god fearing, gold medal winning black man. He'll be coddled by the powers that be until someone physically separates him from his senses and knocks him out cold. Accept that and move on!

Not sure when you'll see him next - he can't fight Bietberbiev, Adonis or DeGale because they are with Haymon and Haymon hates RocNation more than he ever did TopRank.

Look for Peter Quillin, Badou Jack (both said they're moving up to 175), Chavez Jr., or Joe Smith. None of those fights are tempting even on Free HBO unless they have a BOMB undercard.

 

Don't mean to jump in but the real question is will anyone PAY to see Ward fight. My answer is a definite NO! I love boxing so if its a free fight, ill most likely watch but I won't spend a dime on his fights. Rather donate it to some amateur fighter to buy new gear.

 

So you're gonna boycott a guy you already wouldn't pay to see. Bold statement.

 

I paid to see the fight. Would also do so to see him fight Stevenson.

 

If you already wouldn't pay to see him, your opinion hasn't changed at all. So what is your point?

 

Never really have watched him much.

Look, Ward is who he is. He's made the most of what he has and how he fights. I respect him for that.

Does his style please a lot of fans? No.

I doubt he'll be around a lot longer. So if people don't like him they probably won't have to think about him much longer.

 

Yeahhhh righttttttttt

You'll be all over his fights.

This man fights everyone, this is one of the gentlemen of boxing. A God fearing, humble man.
