Ward asked for all 3 of his fights to be in his hometown?

[S A M U R A I]

Is this true?

[Toney Loc]

Yes........

[nujabes77]

i dont think they could ask for it...

[MANGLER]

Never heard that ****.

[ShatteredGlass]

If that's true its prety soft.

Is there any evidence that this is true though?

[Ekscape]

No this is not true... When they were making the fights it kinda just ended up that way... They showed this on the "Fight Camp 360" or whatever that show is called... I'm not sure if they ended up changing it but I know it just was the luck of the draw

[Bhopreign]

Id ask for it too, doesnt mean Id get it, like Pac asking for 60%.

Ward’s next two fights are scheduled to be against fellow Americans Jermain Taylor and Andre Dirrell, with both set to be held in Oakland.

Apparently they asked, and their request was granted. Hometown cooking is not good for the sport at all, whether in the western coast of America or deep in the heart of Germany.

Yeah Its true. why else would kessler travel to wards hometown when he was the champion?

[Grand Champ]

Yes, all of his fights will be in his backyard.
