Shouldn't Ward be grateful to Goossen for home advantage in all his Super Six fights?

ward said the froch fight was at neutral grounds.

 

Didnt have to fight Dirrell and got points for that, whilst Froch had to fight a sub.

Tell me is your point 3 correct?

Kessler was warned for head use against Ward

 

If the Kovalev/Hopkins fight was in Russia, but the furthest part of Russia to where Kovalev comes from. Do you think people would call that neutral or home advantage to Kovalev, even though it would likely be further than anything Ward would have travelled for the S6 final

 

damn, this thread makes me want to take a look back at SOG accomplishments.

 

In fairness, Froch probably has more fans in New York than Ward does outside of California.

As for fighting in Oakland from the start thru the semi's, a job well done by Goosen but I think Showtime had a whole lot to do with that (as the Americans bailed out of the Super Six pretty quickly).

 

Over the years, it is certain that the majority of boxing fans agree with these two points and most fans would celebrate them... if most fans were consistent.

 

Ward never "skipped" a round. What a stretch statement that is, haha... He went 2-0 in his first two and clinched a spot in the semi finals. He took an out-of-tourney fight against Bika and won... In the official semi finals, he fought and beat Arthur Abraham. In the finals, he beat Froch. He did not skip any rounds.

As for the point I left quoted about Allan Green... It was an inside battle start to finish that Ward dominated. Their hands were free almost the entire time. You are allowed to hit if your hands are free or, especially, if the ref seems to think whatever is going on is just fine. If you think that there was a lot of fouling in that particular fight, then why are you a boxing fan as you must view all fights as being foul filled. Ward isn't always in clean fights, but you can't say that the Green or Dawson fights were particularly dirty worthy of notable criticism without sounding like a whining "hater."

 

Yes he's right. Ward recently turned down drug testing for the Rodriguez fight and Eddie Hearn mentioned the other day when he was talking about Brook-Porter drug testing that he's tried to get it before for Froch v Ward and Andrarde v Rose but it fell through.

 

He hasn't fought an eastern european fighter so he is no good

 

I thought Ward live in America? America is a capitalist based economy. The whole idea of capitalism is to make as much money as you can. If Ward doesn't think that's happening with Goosen, why shouldn't he try to leave him?

 

goosen and ward are playing everyone...

 

Goosen certainly got ward any advantage he could
