Paulie Malignaggi says fighters get written off by fans and media after a few losses

[seemorecizzy]

Why is this turning into floyd vs ward

Floyd had the juice then, ward has the juice now.

And fans aren't just to blame from boxers taking losses and be disregarded. these companies like hbo big up these fighter so much before they are ready and once they take losses stop investing in them and go on to the next one.

Nothing wrong with taking a L
But that's boxing in itself has very high standards for their athletes

Exactly

 

[O.G.B]

This spin of trying to act like Floyd was some green prospect now?


It was Floyd's 28th professional fight....and he was in his prime at 25 years old when he fought JLC AND he was ranked #5 P4P while JLC was nowhere near the P4P list. Andre Ward fought Kovalev in his 31st professional fight and was ranked #4 P4P while Kovalev was #2 P4P

JLC may have not been on the P4P list for 2002, however he was still the consensus No.1 ranked lightweight & WBC World Lightweight Champion at the time plus the No.1 ranked lightweight for 3 years straight (2000, 2001 & 2002). Also Mayweather for the first time ever in his career was moving up from Super Featherweight to Lightweight for the WBC World Lightweight Title against JLC, unlike Ward, who had previously fought in the light heavyweight division 2 times prior to his fight with Kovalev along with having fought for a light heavyweight title prior Kovalev (vacant WBO InterContinental) light heavyweight against Alexander Brand).

So what Mayweather accomplished against JLC, especially considering Floyd moved up in weight the first time in career (from Super Featherweight - Lightweight) to win the WBC Lightweight title (along with vacant The Ring lightweight and lineal lightweight titles) far and above exceeds what Ward accomplished with Kovalev.

Ward fought a better opponent and pretty much swept the 2nd half of the fight...........something Floyd couldn't do in the 1st fight vs JLC. Just facts

Ward also got knocked down by & was pummeled by Kovalev for nearly the entire fight...................something that didn't happen to Floyd in his 1st fight vs Jose Luis Castillo. Plus Ward was in tip top physical shape with no prior injuries unlike Mayweather who still fought Castillo with a torn rotator cuff. Just facts!

And 114-113 on all 3 judges scorecards for Ward over Kovalev vs 116-111 (2 judges) & 115-111 for Mayweather over Jose Luis Castillo is a major difference in scoring & clearly shows how Ward barely escaped with a win.




Also if we really compare performances between Ward & Kovalev vs Mayweather & JLC, only a fool would think that Ward had a better overall performance in comparison.

This means what exactly though?

Exactly what it shows below!

You can't call Andre Ward the "Jordan" of boxing with horrible performances like these below:





Be an Olympic Gold Medalist & get knocked out by a unranked fighter who's current record is 23 wins/24 losses & 4 draws!

BoxRec - Darnell Boone

Andre Ward is currently "Jordan of Boxing" meaning HE'S the 1 and there's no other who can replace him. Not even Floyd

Even delusional people have a right to their opinion.

Name a fighter that Floyd beat, outside of Pacquiao and Corrales, that was a better opponent than Kovalev who was ranked #2 P4P, undefeated, in his prime, and held 3 of the 4 Championships in the class?

You can respond back once Ward is 49-0, a five time World Champ & a lineal champion in four different weight classes like Mayweather is!

Don't worry, I'll wait!

That would've cleared all this up if Floyd would've taken the bait

Andre Ward needs to STFU selling wolf tickets and worry about redeeming himself & his reputation after that atrocious, embarrassing 1st match where Kovalev punked him most of the fight before even
coming at a boxer like Mayweather.

I mean... he's Jordan Brand so...

If you have something to get off your chest, then state your issue like a man instead of acting like a passive bytch with the slick insinuations.

oh i know this breh..whenever i see names like berto, ghost, and n'dou () brought up in defense of floyd...i tune out of the thread and let the fukkery run its course

There is no issue. Me and @patscorpio have just always found it funny when we see posters come up in this section who we never seem before in the OG boxing thread, never seen them post about any other fighter. But when Floyd gets brought up these nikkas stay posting essays acting like they know the history of boxing and the ins/outs of the sport, knowing damn well they just Googled all the shyt they posted

If you feel some type of way about that, well then that says more about you than me :ohwelp:

The fact he said Ward fought for a light heavyweight title before Kovalev and Ward was knocked out made it not even worth the reply for me

Like, no disrespect, but nah...its only so long casuals can pretend

nikka please! Nothing I stated can be refuted, point blank which is the actual reason you didn't respond to my previous post, because you can't!

Who the fukk exalted you or @patscorpio as The Coli's premier boxing gurus?


And just because you have thousands of posts in "The Ring" doesn't mean you know what the fukk you're talking about nor does it make you a boxing expert!


Furthermore, I've actually posted in both The Ring & The Coliseum about specific boxers & fights numerous times. However, you wouldn't know that with Andre Ward's nut sack embedded in your mouth.




So you emotional Ward cheerleaders can get upset all you want, but this won't change the facts that Andre Ward doesn't or will never hold a candle to Floyd Mayweather skill or career wise & Ward isn't even close to being considered as the Michael Jordan of boxing.

So my post didn't apply to you, and you got upset anyways

I haven't said 1 word about Ward yet I have his nuts in my mouth

Ward takes WBO Interncontinental light-heavyweight title from Brand in decision

Now who's the real casual pretending?

WBO Interncontinental

Breh, that's a worthless title

 

[O.G.B]

WBO Interncontinental

Breh, that's a worthless title

Now here's something we both can agree on!


But nevertheless, the WBO Intercontinental is still a title from a major boxing sanction that Andre Ward fought for as a light heavyweight and won
