Who gives a ****? Many fighters have tried to get out of their contracts and many more will continue to do so. Are you going to continue to pick and chose who you bash and give a pass to? It's part of boxing deal with it wimp.
Other fighters draw the line when the person who made them who they are, become sick with cancer, they do not then put that to one side and go ahead with taking them to court out of greed.
How do you know? Do you know every contract dispute and the health of the promoter going in? You're always willing to give some people be the benefit of the doubt but others you give no pass to. It's always how you've done things here and it's a big reason why people here don't like you and see you as a troll.
So you think the world was the first to know that Dan had cancer before Ward knew? He knew he was ill, that is without question, but that was not enough of a consideration to stop in going forward to getting what he felt was his(money) This is the reality, and your silly accusations of troll/racist/alt do not change that. Ward behaved disgracefully and then has the audacity to claim to be a man of God. No child of God behaves in such a despicable manner. Ward whilst indulging in such shameless greed, unwittingly disgraced his own name
If he wanted out he wanted out Goosen having cancer is unfortunate but irrelevant that's what you seem not to understand. Half of these promoters don't really give a damn about their fighters anyway they're just commodities to be used and abused for personal gain. When a fighter is retired broke and can barely put together a sentence where are these promoters then? They still have millions in the bank. I don't blame ward for trying to get out his contract just like I don't blame other fighters for trying to get out of theirs to secure better deals. This sport is about the boxers not the promoters. Ward did what he thought was best for his career and it was his right to do so.
I can't believe what I'm reading. Do you even have any moral compass? ''Goosen having cancer is irrelevant'' you say?! How dare You! This is a man who worked by the sweat of his brow to help put your Andre Ward on the map and then you think he has a right to place money before his life?
It's irrelevant Goosen was a multi millionaire he was a promoter he has lawyers on retainer he wasn't in court every day his lawyers were. Like I said earlier promoters make millions off the back of boxers who take all the risk in the ring. Most end up broke or in I'll health when they gave their all just entertain jackasses like us. Do these promoters you love so much help these boxers out?
Morale Compass? That's rich coming from you. You called for kovalev to seriously injure ward in their first fight even made a thread about it. Stop being a hypocrite.
Let me educate on how Ward's own God views such covetous behaviour; [url]James 5:1-6[/url] ''Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last days. Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. ...'' Goosen labored and mowed the fields which allowed for Ward's career to flourish, only for Ward to steal, defame and retain the rewards which were not of his own.
Add there are several fighters on record saying that Goosen was great to his fighters so what you say doesn't mean shite. Goosen acted honorably and ward acted like a punk bottom line.
screw you jackass. you are human excrement. take your sanctimonious crap down the road. all you ever post is bs trying to stir **** up.
Somebody's butthurt, truth hurts doesn't it. The fact is, Ward is a better guy than you'll ever be. Trying to criticize a good guy like Ward for no reason. Insecurity issues for sure.
