More quotes by 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 told myself that I'll do everything within my power to never let that happen again.
Andre Ward
Anybody that's in my weight class, above me or beneath me, I keep an eye on.
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
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
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
Let him tell us he's never been hurt, but that's the definition of getting hurt.
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
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
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
What you gotta understand is, in this conversation and in our fight, you're not in control.
Andre Ward
I'm not gloating over Chad Dawson, he's still the man in my book.
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.
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
I don't rest on my laurels and start getting lazy. It makes me just wanna keep working.
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
It's not about size, it's a science.
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
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
Even if you are sick, you fight until you have nothing left.
