What else can Ward do if he beats Kovalev?
beat Adonis Stevenson to establish himself as kingpin of a second weight class, before setting the stage for shots at cruiserweight and heavyweight to close out the career.
Andre Ward is all of 32 years old, is just about 6' tall, and is currently walking around at a camp-fit 185lbs or so.
He's not going to hang around like Hopkins, Ward could easily fight into his mid 30s (likely 10 more fights or so) and be just chilling.
What else can Ward do if he beats Kovalev?
He can if he wants to but I would like to see him continue on because a win over Kovalev in addition to his other wins won't be enough to get him in the HOF IIMO
If he beats Kovalev, he can reign at the top of 175, fight whoever the hell he wants and get paid for it. He'd literally have nothing left to prove.
I don't think he'd get anywhere at cruiser, far too small. Same for Kovalev really. the 25lb weight gap is ridiculous considering some divisions have 3lb between them
Like any fighter, he should retire when he wants to.
He doesn't seem like a dude who needs it and will keep coming back. So he should retire before he grows tired of the sport
Why shouldn't he be able to? He could go get a CW belt I reckon. He is too small to.deal.with the giants at heavyweight. He could possibly beat a few of the smaller heavies but there are no.small heavyweights with straps these days.
