    So.... Ward can either have a guy a division above come down or division below come up?
    So far, I'm just hearing Martinez/Chavez Jr. as his next fight

      I don't think Martinez would go above 160, but Ward would have 10 lbs on him by fight night.

      I still don't see why people think Sergio fighting Pacquiao or Floyd is more realistic than Sergio fighting Andre Ward.

      In the end, none of those matchups will probably happen.

        It won't be though. Sergio isn't leaving 160 and win/lose, Chavez will need 1-2 solid wins at 168 before fighting Ward.

        I think Ward will fight Dirrell, Oosthuizen, Rodriguez, or Stevenson in his next fight.

          At 168? Martinez could still make 154 and Ward just KO'd the LHW champ. Size difference is too vast. Same size though, what a fight that would be

            I tinks dis Sergio started out at 147 and both Pacquiao and da Pretty Boy both done fought above 147. Martinez is willing to drop to 150 to make it happen. Why should dis small MW move up to 168 to fight Ward? Martinez is a much bigger star den Ward is, lets keep that one point in perspective. Ward fights in his hometown for a reason, he ain't selling anywheres else.

              Ward would win every second of every round.

                Ward is bigger than Sergio, which is why it won't happen. Sergio is also much bigger than Floyd or Pac, which is why those probably won't happen.

                If I were Floyd or Pac, I wouldn't agree to fight Sergio at 150. It's a lose-lose situation.

                  Boom.

                  If you wanna be star build up a fanbase in your hometown and move on to other places but apparently Ward has no intentions of doing that.

                    Much bigger than Pacquiao? Yes. Much bigger than Floyd? I think not. Bigger yes but not MUCH bigger.

                      You mean the 3000 fucking miles he traveled from Oakland to Atlantic City to beat Froch in SS final?
