Our biggest draw is Floyd Mayweather Jr. Our biggest draw could fill a 70k stadium...there just aren't any in Vegas and he won't fight outside of Vegas





Again, our biggest draw is Floyd Mayweather Jr like yall's is Carl Froch...do I really need to answer this?

Mexico's biggest draw (the guy in my avi) has done it already as well and is about to do it again on May 9th at Minute Maid Park....against James Kirkland:dead:
Firstly, I'm not British :heh:

And yeah, Floyd could sell out a huge stadium (only with the right fight) but that's my point. Floyd isn't just a national star. He's the single most famous fighter in the world, and one of the worlds most famous athletes, and the perhaps the biggest draw of the history of the sport. It'd take THAT level of popularity for an American fighter to do stadium numbers. Why? Anything less just isn't enough to rise to the top of pop culture.

Froch is nowhere NEAR as popular as that but could get 30k into a stadium. That is inccredibly impressive. You're comparing a national star to a world icon. That's fukking ridiculous. If Floyd is the only American fighter that could do stadium numbers (which he is, and he could ONLY do it with Manny or Canelo, two other damn superstars) then my point is proven.

To get 70k into a stadium in a country that is spoiled for choice with sporting events both parties need to bring something to the table.

Andre ain't bringing anything.

Ward needs to knock the Winky University degree off his wall, get that passport ready, and take his proud ass to fukking England and get that easy work. :sas1:

All this high horse soapbox drama ain't the business. :sas2:

I'm sure if Roy could rematch Hill in fukking Egypt or wherever for a cool couple million he'd be shadowboxing on a fukking pyramid right now. :snoop:

fukking boxing sometimes. :what:

None I don't Stan Euro Cacs :russ:

Casuals don't fukk with SOG
Media dont fukk with SOG
HBO/Showtime don't want him on their network fighting bums
A good amount of boxing fans have turned on Ward due to his inactivity

nikka would get PAID to beat up on a cac he already beat thats ready to retire...plus score brownie points with boxing fans for fighting in Hostile conditions N not a tune up

But SOG is top graduate of the Winky Wright school of business:manny:
:empire:stop lying nikka

“Don’t get too excited, I don’t think he’s going to come,” Froch told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast. “I think he’s found out that I dictate everything where Andre Ward is concerned because he’s got no TV coverage and he’s got no interest at all. He’s not boxed for three years and I’m still world champion


“I don’t think he will come to England now. I don’t even think he can do super-middleweight. He won an Olympic gold medal at light-heavyweight, he always struggles to fight at super-middleweight and I don’t know if you have seen the size of him lately but he’s walking around at 200-pounds. It’s all hot air. It’s all smoke and mirrors.


this is all true:laff:
