http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-andre-ward-if-unable-to-box-pacquiao-in-2013 I've also read !Yahoo's Kevin Iole suggest this fight in 2011. Therefore, Kevin Iole cannot be taken seriously and is no better than an MMA-watching blogger. When people say boxing's dead - they're talking about these jackasses (b/r and Iole).
Here's the "Great" Kevin Iole. Found the Article: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/boxin...kings-slim-floyd-mayweather-jr-223531370.html ROFL. "Ward is an Olympic gold medalist who is quickly rising up the professional pound-for-pound ranks. I think this is the man Mayweather should fight if he can't make a match with Pacquiao. Ward is considerably bigger, and so it would be a risk, and that risk would mean that a lot of people would tune in. Could Mayweather handle an unbeaten gold medalist who is that much bigger? The Mayweather haters would buy because they'd think he'd be in big trouble against such a big man. His supporters would rightly argue that a win would help cement his place in history and move up way up on the all-time rankings. Floyd would have to agree to give up a lot of weight, but Ward could probably cut to 162 in order to make the big payday."
I knew a boxing fan seemed pretty knowledgeable, try to tell me that Ricky Hatton should be fighting Joe Calzaghe next
No offense Floyd is without doubt the best in the game... But IF he won't step in the ring with Pacquiao, Forget about the big boys. That means you Martinez... Ward Ect. (Let's be honest people)
Casual boxing fans aren't familiar with the many nuances of moving up/down in weight, and the competitive limits of a body
The one thing anyone suggesting this fight is not considering: Floyd Mayweather Jr. has a big hairy vagina.
