    The Son of God will be savagely nailed to the cross, with no hope of a resurrection. In front of all of Oakland Disciples to see.

    It doesn't take a genius iq to see Ward has preety much shown every sign in the world that he's not interested can't say the same for Hopkins who HASENT really ducked anyone in his carrier

    Ward has made it pretty clear he's not interested in fighting Kovalev, it's not happening.

    I live near Oakland...there is no good reason to put the fight there. Oakland has too much poverty and not enough attractions.

    It needs to be in Vegas.

    Any big city would do fine. Definitely NOT Oakland.

    Why should the fight be in Oakland? Kovalev is burgeoning on becoming a star. Ward wasn't even really a star when he was relevant.

    Ward should base that decision upon the location of the nearest neurological trauma unit.

    Kovalev is not worthy enough for Ward at this point.

    LOL

    But the fight should take place at Madison Square Garden, so Ward won't have such a blatant advantage, and there will be a lot of fans from the former USSR rooting for Kovalev too.

    But it doesn't matter what Team Kovalev propose, because Ward is scared SНITLESS of Kovalev and will never take the fight. Ward watched the Kovalev-Hopkins bout.
