Calling out fighters you thought got a pass
gravytrain Wrote:I certain;y don't think Ward got (or needed) any home cooking, he wins the Super series all day long regardless of where he fights. But don't you think it was a little unfair how he didn't have to travel in that comp, as opposed to everybody else? It wasn't even like he was the biggest name at the start of the tournament and could demand his way.Snoop Wrote:I think the difference between criticizing a British fighter for not traveling abroad vs criticizing an American fighter for not traveling abroad is that the elite level athletes predominately compete in America, so they are still facing the best comp, whereas it's not so much the case in Britain.there's some serious bullshit going on over here now, it isn't like it used to be. Hopkins and Ward are the big name fighters that come to mind who have been fighting the best competition without home cooking. Hey props to Dan Goosen for making that happen but I for one would've loved to seen him go right into the lion's den like an England and silence Froch's home crowd, or even Denmark or a Germany. “Shakespeare? I ain’t never hoid of him. He’s not in no ratings. I suppose he’s one of them foreign heavyweights. They’re all lousy. Sure as hell I’ll moider dat bum.”—Tony Galento |
