Ray Ford pushes Foster ahead of their world title fight in the US, is there anything that can be taken away from it?
A big boxing bill takes place this weekend in Houston headed by the above two competing for a super-featherweight world title.
Omari Jones also features on the card.
Ray Ford pushed Foster at the final presser and some have pointed this as to being a mental tactic. Some things to note for those unfamiliar with the incident or new to boxing:
- The shove occurred ahead of their super featherweight title fight.
- Ford has been vocal and aggressive in trash talk leading into the bout.
- Foster responded confidently, promising a KO if Ford gets reckless.
- Ford aims to use physical and verbal pressure to intimidate the champion.
- The incident heightened rivalry and added drama to the May 30 matchup.
- Foster views Ford’s antics as motivation rather than a distraction.
- Ford brings slick southpaw skills and recent strong performances.
- Mental warfare could play a role if it affects focus during fight week.
All in all, champion Foster is saying he’s going to basically run over Ray Ford this weekend but we are not convinced with that.
Ray Ford as we have been saying is well up for this fight and looks like he is in the mind frame to attack and take the belt from the champion.
A solid scrap and card this ahead, roll on.
