    TBH it would be a big fight and easy to sell. Former P4P guy (could promote him as one of the best ever or whatevs) coming out of retirement to challenge a former unified champ at heavyweight, plus it also has that carnival style / freak show attraction of the massive gap in size and weight. It's definitely more intriguing than a Dubois rematch and Matchroom could turn that into a huge event.

    On top of that AJ wouldn't take crazy damage off Ward, apart from maybe lose the future ability to have children.

      If he’s going to come back then why not just fight Bivol?

            I don't know how big Andre Ward is but I'm pretty sure that he's way too small to be fighting a huge dude like Joshua.
            I looked it up , Ward would have a deficit of 6 inches in height and almost 12 inches in reach. I'm sure that the weight difference would be substantial as well. Let's not even get into ring rust and age. I don't see Ward having much chance of winning even with Joshua as diminished as he is these days.

                    Lol I like Joshua's response but I'm sure the fight would sell well at wembley right? With all the u.k fighters Andre ward beat in that mediocre tournament they can use that angle.

                    But yeah ward isn't a draw and really unlike able. That dude is just begging and he begged Paul for a fight too

                      Only need to read the headline, it’s chit and this over rated foo is just tryin a git in on it Dre. All about the Dre, why the hell do these people speak in some kind of language only idiots and the school dodgers understand? Go back to school, learn how to talk like normal respectable people with clear speech and make sense. Maybe it’s too many clips round the ear that does this to people? Who knows, but I find it very irritating.
                      back to the point, 3 wins of note and treated like a messiah? Fack off.
