Why does it seem every Andre Ward fight negotiation seems like a uphill battle?

Diva demands

 

barrera whined and complained....the anti ward brigade made jokes and asked the same questions over and over...abel sanchez ran in his mouth

and in the end...the fight got made...and barrera and sanchez got served

rinse, lather, repeat

 

he might be difficult....but so what? in the end pretty much every fight hes ever really wanted hes gotten....except for when people return his emails and say "no thanks were not interested.....go to lhw please"

 

he did not know that fight was signed...it hadn't been announced yet and ward would not be privy to their negotiations

even still....k2 could have said "were fighting Lemieux in October....how bout after that we talk....about maybe next year"

instead they said nothing of the sort and floated "maybe in 2017"...lol...when they hoped ward would be fully gone and out of their hair...what a bunch of pansies

 

This.

Ward is legendarily hard to negotiate with. But then I guess that you could expect that from anybody calling themselves SOG

 

For a world title no less :deal

Only people who are totally delusional would think GGG would drop a ppv title fight for a fight in Oakland that not only would be non title but probably wouldn't come off

 

Any fighter that manages to get all there demands over and over and refuse to travel must have a ***** of a team negotiation wise. May make good business sense in one respect and full points to his team for getting away with it to date but Ward with all his talent has managed to achieve recognition largely amongst patient, devoted fans.


FFS multiple tune up fights for a fighter of Ward's calibre!! What next in the world of sports - tune up Olympics?
