More quotes by Andre Ward
It's one thing to have an eye for the sport, and it's another to have a feel for the sport. He has both.
Andre Ward
As a man, I have no problem saying I was hurt.
Andre Ward
He's built up to be invincible and no man is invincible, any man can be knocked out.
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
Anybody that's in my weight class, above me or beneath me, I keep an eye on.
Andre Ward
I don't rest on my laurels and start getting lazy. It makes me just wanna keep working.
Andre Ward
You can still entertain without getting a knockout.
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
A lot of people look for you to change. Everything has stayed the same. Financially, this is God's money, and my wife and I are just stewards of it.
Andre Ward
I'm just excited that the fans are going to get their money's worth, and you can't say that a lot of the times.
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.
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
The part that sickens me about boxing is guys fight their whole careers and they have nothing to show for it. That's not going to be my testimony. When it's time to get out of the game, I want to be able to walk away. I'm not going to jeopardize my health. I will have no problems walking away.
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
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 told myself that I'll do everything within my power to never let that happen again.
Andre Ward
I got knocked down, I don't know how many years ago and I haven't been off my feet since, and I responded again against the best in division without the respect of having the chin I'm supposed to have.
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'm not going to say that I'm the best, we respect our champions. Floyd's been doing this a lot longer than me, he's been a lot of mega fights and I won't dare say that I'm better than Floyd Mayweather.
