More quotes by Andre Ward
I think he takes a good shot, I take a good shot too, but taking too many shots is not good for any fighter. And it's not really a reputation you want.
Andre Ward
What you gotta understand is, in this conversation and in our fight, you're not in control.
Andre Ward
I'm always striving to be a better man to God, a better husband, a better Dad so it's just work, but I'm committed to it.
Andre Ward
I don't rest on my laurels and start getting lazy. It makes me just wanna keep working.
Andre Ward
He says he was physically not right, that's fine but the mentality, even if you're not right, you're still in a fight and you still show what you have deep down inside, and I don't think he showed the mettle that he needed to show in that fight in order to beat a guy like Miranda.
Andre Ward
Every fighter is my toughest challenge to date. After I get done with one fight, the next challenge is the toughest.
Andre Ward
I like to talk come fight night, that's how I do it, but I'm not a pushover.
Andre Ward
Anybody that's in my weight class, above me or beneath me, I keep an eye on.
Andre Ward
I told myself that I'll do everything within my power to never let that happen again.
Andre Ward
In the school of boxing that I come from, that's frowned upon, giving up free shots, cos we know what those kinda shots do to a man's career, regardless of whether it shows up now, or shows up when you least need it. It takes a toll.
Andre Ward
I'm not gloating over Chad Dawson, he's still the man in my book.
Andre Ward
You're only as good as your last fight. It's just the way things are. It's the way that the sport is built.
Andre Ward
Do the work and then let the rest speak for itself and know that it feels personal, I knew it for me when I was younger. It all feels so personal, but if it's for you, it's for you. And if it's not, that's okay because the other door will open. The right door will open.
Andre Ward
I think Bute would have to face off with the Super Six Champion to prove that he's the best Super Middleweight. You come out of a tournament like this on top, that demands a lot of respect and carries a lot of weight.
Andre Ward
This fight should be dubbed, 'No Excuses.' If Carl Froch beats me, there won't be any excuses. I beat Carl Froch, there shouldn't be any excuses. No judges, no referees, no nothing. May the best man win.
Andre Ward
As a man, I have no problem saying I was hurt.
Andre Ward
The way my father raised me, we don't pat ourselves on the back. We don't call ourselves great, we let other people do that.
Andre Ward
The road I've taken to this point has not been easy. Being back on HBO is a big thing, but fighting on HBO in my hometown is huge. To be great you have to fight the best. Chad has beaten the best so these are the type fights I want to take. I will put on a great show for all the fans that come out to Oracle Arena.
Andre Ward
I don't abuse my body, I've been off 10 months, I still train and I'm always thinking about boxing, so I felt like I would be fine and I just wanted to challenge myself against another top caliber fighter.
Andre Ward
That's what makes a fighter. I got dropped and I got back up, and I found a way to get the win.
