    Same, Mikey fan as well, but he is talking way too much and fighting way too little.

    I do not really dislike or hate any boxer, but many of them have lost my respect due to being sore losers. I really used to like Pac and Hopkins but didn't like their way to handle losses. I could say same about Kovalev but I did not like him so much even before his losses.

    If Goossen was such a thief that he stole money from Ward why did Ward re-sign to him for another 3 years after being promoted for 6 years by him? Why did Ward lose the lawsuit THREE TIMES?

    You know you can't answer these questions. Face the facts: your boy is a diva that simply didn't want to honor the contract that he signed. But he was willing to eat up the signing bonus for that...

    Ward was the first i thought of too

    Add to your list of Ward accomplishments the Kovalev shambles and the pathetic cowardly fake retirement to avoid the Beterbiev

    **** you Andre, coward ass *****

    I like Floyd at first, and then after his handpicking and showing money off and all that, I started to think he was more about ego than substance. He did avoid Manny for 6 years or so.

    Those aren't facts. Nobody besides Ward and the Goosens know what really went down so there's little point in speculation.

    What is not a fact? That Ward re-signed to Goossen for 3 years after being promoted for 6 years by him? That he lost the lawsuit against him three times? "Nobody besides Ward and the Goosens know what really went down" Sure except the court that threw his lawsuit out 3 times. You got something to say?

    'Face the facts Ward is a diva that simply didn't wanna honor the contract he signed'.

    Those aren't facts, just speculation from someone who doesn't like Andre Ward.

    The court ruled 3 times that Goossen didn't break the contract. That means Ward had no legal ground to get out of that contract. Fact. He simply wanted to get out. Why? Because other promoter was willing to pay him more.
