Ward and Dirrell seem like really good friends. Will it affect the fight?

I hope not.

 

J. C. Chavez vs. J. L. Ramirez?

They're not Mexican, admittedly.

 

Both professionals, both want to win...and if I'm correct...Dirrell needs to win if he is to progress?
They'll put friendship aside for this bout.

 

nah. froch said he and kessler were like brother, a while back. Are you worried that will affect tonights fight?
This is pure business. Nothing to worry about.

 

Byrd vs. Williamson.

Friends, the fight was such a ****ing stinker.
Might end up a stinker folks.

 

nope they will fight and fight hard.

 

I hope its like Sugar VS Oscar...Without the steroids though.

 

Gatti and Ward were good friends but I'm not sure if it was during the trilogy. I don't think it'll affect them because when a boxer looks across the corner before the bell rings they see an opponent, not a friend.

 

Also i reckon the will probably have a deeper mutual respect after the fight.. If their fights have no controversies, of course.

 

When Dirrell fought Abraham, Ward was sitting next to Dirrell's brother cheering him on. They're very tight.

 

Only during the lead up...they'll be surprisingly civil because they like each other. But when the bell rings, they'll remember that they are professionals.

 

No it won't effect the fight ... this will be a good fight ...

 

Dirrel will need the win to go thru, and Ward wont wanna lose his belt and his record. So nobodys gunna lay down for the other

 

They both in their primes and want the world's attention and they know what's at stake. Inside the ring it's all business. After the fight they can go play basketball together like Floyd does with his friends.
