    That's going to be a riot.

    On an off note, you can't sign a forward contract that far ahead of time with only one signature.

    Perhaps HBO included language that gives them the right to choose an opponent and Kovalev is therefore included under that umbrella, but you can't specifically say "You must face Kovalev by the third fight". Those are negotiations that would need to happen between Kovalev's team and Ward's. They can't be done between Andre and the network alone.

    So, yes, there's going to be a negotiating process that has to happen to iron details out before Ward-Kovalev can come off. That fight is NOT set in stone.

    I think the point he was making was that people wouldn't have accepted GGG signing a three fight contract with the third fight being Ward, keeping Andre hanging around. They wanted him to move straight up to face a pound for pound talent in his first fight at the weight.

    This is something Ward has - quite sensibly IMO - refused to do.

    Here is a comment from Duva clarifying terms of the contract:

    boxing scene.com/kovalevs-promoter-reacts-andre-wards-comments--98080?

    That is actually a big "if". Ward can fight a couple bums and then skip the rest of the year.

    I'm racist? My 3 favourite active fighters- Kell Brook, Anthony Joshua, Roman Gonzalez.

    What skin colour do they have in common? :lol::lol:

    The only reason you hate on GGG is because he is not the same skin colour of you, and the actual purpose of this thread is no expose the Ward fanboys like you for the deluded hypocritical world they live in. :hi:

    Neither does Golovkin, but Ward still claims that he is being ducked.

    Can you imagine that Kovalev has a fight with Stevenson scheduled, but David Haye sends him a 50/50 offer to fight at 200 ? Of course, Krusher whould refuse.

    As usual the "now" trolls are out in full force and this time they're doing what they did to Garcia when he faced Matthysse- to Ward, lmao. Stay the "now" guys that you are, and **** the Scene.

    Patience is a virtue, you are very impatience which means you have a faulty emotion, relax is coming next year.
