As a fan of Ward I am disappointed in him talking like this right now. 2. Ward is better than to join the rabble in kicking a man while hes down. Even if he truly believes this, exorcise a little character and show that you dont have to say things like that the week he's dethroned. But more importantly... 1. I would have thought Ward is smart enough to know the elements Ruiz brought to that matchup that were responsible for the win, and know he has literally none of them. Again, out of the traits that Ruiz has that made this a bad matchup for AJ, Ward possesses none of them to a relatable degree. Its laughable that anyone like Ward would try to draw comparisons from this as to how a fight with him would go.
Ward couldn't implement this strategy because he can't take a HW punch. If he could take a HW punch he would have gained some muscle or ate some tacos like Ruiz and fought at HW like he kept talking up for a decade now.
I dont expect him to respect fans. But I do somewhat expect him to treat his boxing peers with a bit of class (as he usually does), especially a champion like AJ who has tried to represent himself and our sport the best he can. And not be one of the people that piles on when the guy is dethroned. Secondly, I expect him to have the boxing IQ to know that what hes saying is non applicable garbage.
I feel you. I just like the way that he has people all bent out of shape over his comments. AJ would KHTFO he knows it as well.
No he did not all that was in his wrap was a used gauze pad. when that pad was tested all that was discovered were trace amounts of calcium and sulphur. The amounts of which were consistant with HUMAN SWEAT NOT plaster. All the evil Tony did was SWEAT! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because I detest seeing people tell blatant lies about a friend I KNOW was innocent. His career & good name tarnished by a blatant lie
There is now way on earth Ward would have been getting up from the shot that dropped Ruiz. So no Andre, you wouldn't have done anything.
