You have to listen to the other parts to understand this part.... there are 3 total parts... go to that channel and view all of them... Very good interview and very good points. He also didn't play the race card, what he mentioned is true... how the boxing media will air anything Broner will do as example or Mayweather will do to make it look as if African Americans are all about that but never air the positive. That is not the race card, that is true. Talks about now VADA uses Maxboxing and others for their agendas... It's a good 3 part interview... Stop hating and appreciate the knowledge being brought forth here... if you disagree at the end, then fine... but the bias in boxing is getting annoying.
everything he said is truth. calling him boring is an illustration of your lack of understanding of boxing. it's much harder to do what he does than it is to be a face first defenseless brawler. it takes intelligence, dedication, discipline, will and a bunch of other things. 139-0. show me how many fighters in history have accomplished this from amateurs to the pros? he's in a very small group of highly successful and highly capable boxers. **** dan rafael. truth of the matter is that african american fighters are held to a higher standard. period.
Well first of all ward isn't african american, he is irish-african-american. Nobody in all of africa looks even remotely like him, nobody in ireland looks like him either.
He's not getting mistaken as an irishman anytime soon though no matter whether he's mixed or not. Also there are plenty of Africans in Africa that look like Ward especially those in coastal parts of west Africa where there's been more diversity and racial mixing.
1)I don't see how a guy who everyone ranks top 3 P4P is getting disrespected. 2) If anything, Andre's had to prove himself more because his pops was white and he doesn't have that hood image that too many morons here think you need. As a result, he wasn't overexposed or overhyped like Broner. It's just how it is boxing in the U.S., and it's a shame that that's the image that gets so marketed here that fans buy into thinking that's what boxers should be like. Say what you will about his in-ring tactics, but Andre's a good guy outside the ring, and that just doesn't sell.
