Ward needs to take a page out of Sergio's book and realise he's not a big draw

Andre Ward at age 30, isn't active enough. He has only fought 27 fights

 

Edwin Rodriguez - a guy that's not even widely Known- got a million dollars to fight ward so how is that not a decent offer???

 

True.

None of the guys need ward to make money. They have other big fights available against each other. Ward thinks he's the next Floyd but Floyd's opponents don't make 3 mil plus fighting other guys.

 

This is certainly the reality of things but it is a very backwards way to run a sport. Froch gets his clocked cleaned by Ward so the obvious next step would be for Ward to go into Froch's backyard and take less money for a rematch. This sport makes you slap your head.

 

That being said Ward is not nearly willing enough to travel. That does make him look bad

 

LOL! Ward has already SCHOOLED froch, and Kessler, as well.
If there was a rematch for Froch to redeem himself, and if it were in England, of course it is reasonable that Ward receive the larger split, especially if he agreed to put his title on the line.

1. Froch needs the rematch much more than Ward. Ward has already beat him, easily.

2. The fight is in England. A place with a reputation for terrible officiating and scoring. Froch could hit Ward with 100 rabbit punches in England, and not be penalized for fouling.
Ward would certainly be aware of the risk of being victimized in England with their habit of poor adherence to he rules of the sport. Of course he wouldn't give up his fair share of the financials while being exposed to such risk.

3. Ward is the universally acknowledged #2 P4P fighter in the world, while Froch is just a good boxer. True boxing fans would be looking at and appreciating Ward's skills, while UFC fans would be thrilled by Froch's, heart.

Like I said; It's Froch who says he wants to avenge his loss to Ward, although I really don't believe he is as eager as he states.
If Hearns doesn't agree to Ward's terms, then Froch is the one losing out on gaining the chance for redemption.

 

the only reason he is not a draw is because of his not so casual friendly style (which i think is a pretty entertaining style actually). he is p4p number 2. he wont ever become a mega draw like a pac or a mayweather but his skills will get him plenty of attention

 

You simply believe that Ward is motivated by earning money by any means necessary as YOU think he should.
I beleive that Ward lives humbly and the few millions he has so far earned are well managed and he is not in any kind of Pac-like desperation for huge purses and high risk.
I think that it's more important to Ward to become the best boxer that he can be.
That Ward holds the WBA & WBC SMW titles, is rated #2 p4p in the world and 27-0, I think he is accomplishing his real goals and receiving his recognition as well.

In a rematch, what belts does Froch bring to the table?
NONE!
All you can say is that people in England will come to see him fight, but you are not being honest with yourself. People in England would come to that fight because Froch would be meeting Andre Ward and you have to admit, because he would be facing Andre Ward there would be many more people attending than the Froch-Groves rematch. :yep

 

Ward is a legend within his own mind............

Ward was the only boxer who did not have to travel in his tournament. Ward did travel to Atlantic City which is in America, but Froch had to travel over seas. Ward beat Kessler with his personal referee who allowed him to headbutt at will, hold, elbow, use low blows, finally Ward came all the way from across the ring with his head with a very illegal, intentional headbutt which cut Kessler badly, so Ward's personal referee stopped the fight and gave the fight to Ward because of the cut caused by the illegal headbutt..............Ward is a cheat.............Stevenson called Ward out live on HBO, said he would fight Ward at 175 or 168, but Ward refused to answer him. Ward is extremely conceited, he believes he is royalty and does not need to go by the rules...........Ward's referee believes that illegal headbutts are OK, as long as it is Ward doing the butting...........
