    Any normal person would have said il finish off my contract then move, not finish off your contract, sign another long contract and then sue your promotor to get out of it

    they must have extension clauses and ****
    say if you wanna fight next month, you will sign a contract that will bind you to a 3 year agreement instead of just one month.

    Not if you want to get out of the contract

    If wards claims are to e true his been getting screwed for 4 years now and only kicked up recently

    If his lying then he might be going broke

    That's like saying Rigo isn't good for boxing. Ward is P4P #2 not having the second best boxer in the world not being active isn't good.

    Its not the same. Rigo doesn't excessively hold and use his head as a weapon. That **** isn't even boxing.

    His critics say Rigo runs and doesn't engage and is boring. I don't, I love his style.

    its gotta be non-compete clauses where you can get out of the contract, but wont be able to sign on with another promoter or something like that.
    since goossen been promoting ward (he is like their brand name,commodity) and now that his name is build up he cant leave and take that somewhere else without dropping goosses alot of money

    Lol i thought the same thing but it would be too obvious in this case, probably gonna rough him up instead or something.

    I don't think there's much of a choice when J Prince is involved tbh.

    He brings you a contract and says " sign the contract bigboy", you just sign that mother****er no questions asked.

    Hell you know what, i wouldn't be surprised if this was a conspiracy between Andre and Goosen.:lol:

    James Prince is a low-level thug. There are guys out there even James Prince fears and he's smart enough to not do anything stupid.

    Anyway, Ward is just being stupid now. It's pretty much guaranteed that he's going to be out of the ring for the rest of the year now.

    We can start dropping Ward from the top 5 and stop talking about other fighters ducking him. He should have just finished his contract and move on. Now's he's digging himself a deep hole and this could really damaging his career and finances.

    Yeah and its ok that people are critical of Rigo but the fact remains that he uses good footwork and maintains distance which allows him to be successful. These are legitimate elements of boxing. Jumping in and holding people or head butting are not legitimate tactics. Take those away from Ward and he gets KOd.

    As a matter of fact fk him and fk Virgil Hunter. Thats how he teaches his fighters to fight. Personally I thought what Amir Khan did in his last fight was bull**** as well. Thats not boxing and refs ought to be stricter about it.
