    Wards taken no risks since the super 6 (even then he didn't leave America). As a result he missed the chance to starch Bute, missed the chance to fight in front of 80,000 in Wembley and is now fighting a can in a school gym somewhere in Oakland.

    the fact that it's on BET means it's exactly where it needs to be. that's ward's fanbase. true fans who don't watch BET will tune in because they like boxing.

    I'm not racially qualified to watch BET, so that kind of limits my options.

    Kind of feels like singing along with rap lyrics...certain points in the song arise where I feel like I'm not supposed to be doing that.

    Seriously though...putting fights on BET is a joke, and putting Paul Smith in a fight against Andre Ward is a joke, and Roc Nation is a joke.

    David Lemieux vs Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam is definitely the better fight tonight but i want so see if Ward is still the same after the long break. I think he might even stop Paul Smith

    323K - thats a bit lower than the average ESPN FNF card.
    ESPNS 2012 Boxing Budget was 3mil :lol:

    Once again, the rating is only bad because of the damn purse.
