    Does this thing have a date set yet? Last i remember seeing was Showtime threaten them if they bitched out of their contracts and i thought that they set a date relatively soon?

    The venue is not up in the air. It's Ward we're talking about. He'd probably start crying if you went more than 5 miles from his front door.

    They're waiting on gay marriage to become legal.

    This is a disgrace and if it doesn't happen soon they should both be skinned for all the money they've got, imho.

    I'd say at this time, imo, it's pretty clear neither are going to fight each other.

    To be honest with you, I think they're dating, sorta' like Moe Williams contemplating suicide because Lebtch left him. They don't make 'em like they used to. The two Andres should move across the S.F. Gay bridge to 'Frisco.

    Those of you who thought this fight was ever going to happen in the first place were unwise to think so.

    What in the **** are you talking about? When the Super Six was announced you were like "oh man, come round three, that fight between the Andre's ain't happenin'" :-(

    Ward refused to fight in the tournament unless he got all his fight in his home town. Dirrell faked in injury to get his last fight in Detroit. Now they are both fighting over who gets the fight in their turf! Fight will probably be canceled.

    OMG:lol::lol::lol: DUDE! That was classic. That way they would retain a larger portion of their purses due to their officially recognized domestic union and all the benefits of tax exemptions that come with it.

    I never though of that...

    Yes I was. Did you misread my post? It's just that it's rare that someone asks you what the **** you're talking about before proving your point for you. So, I guess I'm talking about what you're talking about? Thanks?
