GBP - Bika vs Ward in Oakland 11/27?

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=5678950



Good fight, love to see how Ward handles the tough and durable Bika. Might have to hit this fight up to

Its a better match up, thats fer sure. Dirrell is just there to slap and run, Bika will rough up Ward, but Ward should take the wide UD in Oakland. I like it, Im just surprised Bika would turn down Green, but would entertain the thought of fighting Ward.

Is it part of the tournament ?

Ward holds a strap and is obviously the bigger reward to go after

W/Green, its a Super 6 fight with a long shot of getting through next round

Against Ward, its an undefeated fighter who holds a strap and the fighter who beat Kessler who many considered #1 at 168

Doesnt say yet

And Diego, Idk about a wide UD. Bika can crack and Ward will have to fight more against Bika than he's used to

I can see the upset here

It doesn't have to be since ward has already advanced on points. Bika would have to formally enter the tournament. Ward was already granted permission to fight outside of the super six.

LOL...wow....guess who Bika is "managed" by?





Al Haymon....this guy is running the sport

I was just curious hardcore.

LOL Gomez, Haymon is like the T1000

It makes sense that Bika had personal issues when he could have entered the tournament now that he gets a title shot with no tourney obligation he's in. Haymon is a genius a pulling wool.

I was just answering your question my Scottish pal.

Al Haymon is a Sith Lord, he must be using mind tricks to get those fighters million dollar paydays.
