    I've said it before, fighting a Goossen fighter in California is not what I'd call a fair fight.

    I wouldn't blame Abraham's side at all for not agreeing to fight Ward in this state.

    Agreed. Ward has won his tournament fights so easily that it hasn't made a difference so far, but why should he get all home dates? Why doesn't he have to fight in Europe?

    Yeah, some things have definitely gone favorably for Ward in this tournament

    He got the champion (and favorite to win the tournament) to come to his hometown for his first fight.

    He fought a replacemnt, Green, after Taylor was knocked out, and fought Bika after Dirrell withdrew.

    Just seems like there's been fighter's who've been asked to do more than him.

    But I don't think Showtime will let the semi-finals and finals out of the states.
