Why is Ward not willing to travel outside USA to make a big fight?

    Maybe, for the little fighters. But for the fighters in the higher weight divisions Europe and Great Britain and to a lesser extent Canada is where the action is. 60,000 and more soccer stadiums full to the brim watching the Klitschko's, Froch and Groves fight. Fan interest in Europe will only increase and America will go the way of the dinosaur especially with the bigger fighters. Also Europeans find it harder I think to relate to 135lb. boxers. I read recently the average European male is now just a shade under 6 foot tall. They are naturally going to relate to men who are more their size and put their money down when the bigger fighters fight for titles.

    Being half Irish you would think he would want to go over and fight in Ireland.

    Actually, no. If I was going "all in" on those fights I would have chosen the obvious favorites. I already knew Marquez / Khan was the heavy favorites more than likely to win. If you'd actually check how much the investment was, you'd see I was attempting to capitalize on the underdog with a minor bet, like all knowledgeable bettors do. You'd also see that I even put in a minor bet on the draw.

    Now instead of making yourself look like a dumbass, why don't you take a look at all the "all in" bets made?

    Like I said before, taking every single bet into account, my success rate is 8/10 or 9/10 depending on which page you look, 7/10 being the worst for 2014. Yours..... 2 out of 10, 1 out of 10, etc.... :rofl :rofl I obviously didn't get to 16k by LOSING bets, especially from a 75 reset just a few months ago. Difference between me and you, I consistently know what I'm talking about while you just spout garbage out of favoritism, like your ***gotry with Kell Brook.

    No matter HOW MUCH YOU TRY TO TWIST AND TURN, you just don't know **** about boxing. Your post history shows this, your vcash shows this, this very thread shows this..... :lol:

    So when are you going to answer my Kell Brook question? Afraid to showcase your dumb boxing knowledge YET again? :rofl

    Ward would get jobbed in a fight with Froch in the UK. He'd get robbed on the cards or the ref would find a way to stick it too him. European refs and judges are just bad, I'm not making excuses but I get why he wouldn't want to go there.

    Your not betting real money you window licker, it's fake money. You are ducking the bet because you know I would mop the floor with you and when you are not hedging your bets (IE going for two possible outcomes in one fight) and you'd be onto 75 constantly :lol::lol::lol:

    You thought Marquez would lose to Alvarado and Khan to Collozo. YDKSAB! :lol::lol:

    You have been EXPOSED as being scared to enter a betting contest with me. Bless your little cotton socks, your fake money is obviously very important to you. :rofl

    That's funny, all my "all in bets" for 2014 are 100% successful (only the minor bets losing), while your's is 10% at best :lol:. Anyone can compare my stats page to yours and see who really DKSAB :deal. :rofl :lol:

    BTW, everyone knows Khan is getting KTFO again, sooner or later. Just like Kell Brook is KTFO waiting to happen, barely edging past a bum Carson Jones.

    How would he do against Porter, Thurman, Maidana, etc..?

    How would Ward do against the other super middleweights?

    Please respond, your shitfest boxing "knowledge" is pure comedy gold.
    :rofl

    Ban bet if we do this betting competition for the rest of the year.

    Rules are, whatever the current vcash total you go all in on one fight and one fight only with one outcome and one outcome only.

    Whoever's vcash gets reset more is banned.

    If you are that confident you know more about boxing than me, you'd stop fencing it, ma up and accept. But no, you will continue to treasure fake money like an imaginary friend. :lol::lol:

    Waiting for your duck.

    Can't stand Ward..... But he's clearly the man to beat at SMW, and I don't see anybody there giving him much trouble. However with that being said, he is killing the division with his inactivity and should be stripped of his titles if he doesn't start to fight on a more regular basis.... Froch is creating most of the excitement in the division despite being the number two behind Ward. Ward isn't even close to lining any fights up for this year, and we're almost 6 months through :patsch

    In Ward's own personal tournament he was the only boxer who never had to travel. Ward would not allow Bute to fight in his tournament then either, back then Bute was a good fighter. Ward is still refusing to fight Stevenson at 168, Ward is a coward and a cheat...............
