Good new for the Andre Ward fans. This is for the true SOG gang out there. I have excellent news. I'm hearing that it's looking like the #2 p4p fighter in the world will be fighting on HBO sometime in the fall of 2017. At the moment, the opponent is TBA, but this is great news! We will see the linear champ at 168 again. There are very little known details, but one thing we do know is that the fight will take place in Oakland.

I know there was a lot of concern about the career of Andre Ward and there was a lot of uncertainty. I'll admit I had my own doubts, but it does look like the champ will fight again.


You the real mvp:wow:

There has been lots of confusion over the last couple of days regarding this Sunday’s WBA world heavyweight championship bout between Ruslan Chagaev and Fres Oquendo in Grozny. Rumors said that the fight was off after Oquendo failing to board his plane to Russia twice due to family issues. Possible replacements such as former world champion Shannon Briggs, WBA #9 rated contender Alexander Ustinov and former WBA international champion Alexander Petkovic were waiting in line to jump in as last-minute replacements to get a title shot.

But now they all know that they will have to wait for their opportunity. Because Oquendo and his team finally boarded the plane to leave Chicago today to make it to Grozny in time for the weigh-in. “The fight has never been officially off”, says promoter Timur Dugazaev. “We were always hoping that Fres Oquendo would be able to make it. We understand that he was facing some serious problems over the last week with close family members getting sick and having to go to hospital. But still he will keep his word, fulfill his contract and take his chance to become heavyweight champion of the world.”
Fres Oquendo is back in. It would suck if he goes through all of this just to lose

Angel Garcia: Rod Salka Being Treated Like a Nobody!
Posted by: Bill Emes on 7/5/2014 .



By Bill "Two Scoops" Emes

Angel Garcia, father and trainer of WBC/WBA junior welterweight champion Danny Garcia (28-0, 16KOs), says upcoming opponent Rod Salka (19-3, 3KOs) is being treated like a nobody by the fans and the press. The fight headlines a Showtime televised tripleheader on August 9th from the Barclays Center in Las Vegas.

Despite being a huge underdog, Angel is not taking him lightly. They plans to train just as hard as they did for their big fights against Amir Khan and Lucas Matthysse.

"They are already saying it now [that he's a nobody]. They are already saying it and the fight is not even here. They already got the guy like he's a nobody. I'm still going to respect him as a person, because any time you put gloves [on] you have to respect that," Angel told BoxingScene.com.

"I am not going to underestimate him. We are going to train very hard. We are going to train like were training for Khan. We are going to train like were training for Matthysse. We're not taking nothing away. If anything we are going to add things]. If Danny goes out there and knocks him out, they are already saying that he's a nobody. Now if it goes the distance, they are going to say that Danny lost or whatever the fukk happens."
