imo i think all this shyt will be settled out of court cause goosen aint getting 10 million let alone 1 million out of ward it's official, they both hate each other and this relationship is coming to an end. really though, this is the best thing to happen to ward his chances of brekaing away from goose look better than ever now. i wonder how much goose would want from ward to get out of that contract.

I dont see ward leaving goosen anytime soon. Its the same cycle. Sue Goosen, lose, Goosen then gets more time added to the contract to make up for the time lost in which he was being sued, repeat

Goosen is not gonna let the #2 p4p fighter in the world just go after all the time he invested in him.

I'd have to look it up, but if Ward just finished out the contract instead of going to the courtroom, he would have nearly fulfilled his contract by now.

Oh yeah? How'd that Mayweather vs pacq lawsuit work out? Settlement!

I've never heard goosen doing a fighter dirty.

Bottom line is you sign a contract. You are held to it unless you can buy yourself out of it. Problem is nobody is willing to pay that price to free ward.

Like I said that Kessler fight ain't happening. I haven't even heard anything on it as a matter of fact.

I hope wards people know what their doing. Dude is waiting his prime with this. I think if he doesn't fight this year he won't be able to fight at 168(healthy at least). That weight start sticking it is hard to get it off(no homillz). Even trying to dry out might not work.

The Floyd/Pac suit was a very different situation. Pac sued Floyd for comments he was making in public. It was clear what Floyd was doing, it hurt Pac's reputation, and Pac had a very strong case.

If Ward wins the suit, then Goossen's suit loses automatically. Truth negates any defamation claim. If Ward's Ali Act suit fails, then Goossen has a chance to recover…but only if Ward and his attorney were acting maliciously when they made the statements. It's VERY difficult to prove actual malice. This is going to court unless Ward can get out of the contract before then. A defamation suit won't deter his team. Goossen is just trying to keep his good name and fight back.

And this isn't simple contract law. The Ali Act is federal law. And since there's no enforcement guidelines in the Act itself, the court can fashion any sort of remedy it chooses. A federal judge could release Ward from his contract, force them to reform it, make Goossen pay Ward, enforce a criminal penalty on Goossen, or any combination of some or all of the above.
