    How's this an anti US thread? Are you that paranoid after what 'Zaggers did to all your heroes? :think

    How many tickets did he sell then, the only numbers i've seen are a bit over 5000 tickets for the fight succeeding the Froch fight. It's clear as day. Groves can't fill 80,000 or even 1/10th of that on his own.

    Nope.

    After the Super 6 I expect him to go to Canada and fight Bute, then move up to 175 and attempt to win a title there. I would've had no problem with him then.

    However him not knowing his own worth, unwillingness to meet a fighters reasonable terms (i.e wanted a purse of 83 million US dollars for a rematch with Froch), unwillingness to travel, wanted to drag fighters up or down in weight, unwillingness to take drug tests, and hypocrisy (calls Golovkin up to 168 because GGG said he would take fights up there, but even when he said he was looking at fights at 175 goes quiet when Kovalev calls him out) and ungratefulness (suing his promoter who got him home advantage throughout the Super 6) has made me think the man needs to remove his head from his own backside.

    One thing is for sure- more than Ward would have if he fought Rebrasse.

    How is this trolling. It's a debate about whether or not Ward could sell as many tickets as Groves. You give your answer and your reasoning, then continue on your merry way.

    However if it's a thread about a British fighter, you have to take a big dump in it, as you are still butthurt with a haterad of Brits as all your heroes when down to 'a slapper'.

    One thing is for sure, a Froch v Ward fight would be bigger than Froch v Groves. But Froch doesn't want any part of Ward.

    Attendance for Ward's last fight- 4,158. [url]https://twitter.com/David_Mayo/status/401927937877766144[/url]

    It holds a capacity of about 11,000 to and Ward couldn't fill half of it. :lol:

    Ward priced himself out. He wants 83 million dollars, more than Mayweather wants to fight Pacquiao:

    He can't even sell out a 10,000 seat arena in his hometown

    I will agree with you with regards to traveling look at Froch he flew over a volcano to fight Double A ..Now as far as that rematch didn't he want that in the UK ? 83 is that for real ? That sounds a bit outlandish ..

    Ward going to Canada yeah I never thought that would,have happened ,but we all know Bute wasn't on the level anyway .


    What he did to Goosen was jacked up I whole heartily agree ..I also don't care for his challenge to GGG ..He should,have accepted the Stevenson challenge but only of he had moved up .. Not at SMW I don't think its a duck if it's at SMW don't want Adonis draining himself like Dawson did ..
