    Should Ward rematch Froch and AA just for the IBF and WBO belts?

    He should try to collect all the belts in his division then move up to 175 imo...what do you think?2 more fights at 168..unify all the titles and then boom 175

    IMHO Ward has been trying to recycle names. He beat those guys handily, there is absolutely no need for any rematches with them.

        I have no interest in seeing Ward fight Froch again ever. I would rather just watch Froch vs AA.

            There's no need for rematches. The first fights weren't competitive at all, and it's clear Ward is in another league to the rest at 168.

            175 is the only thing that would make sense for Ward. Holding all 4 belts at 168 wouldn't really prove much more than Ward already has.

              Incredibly ****** question.

              I don't get how/why people think this way. They're just belts, who cares? They have been devalued of all meaning at this point.

              If you're a contender, you want to get a belt because it gets you more fans, TV attention, cash and can lead to bigger fights, and because the guy holding the belt is usually among the top names. Or maybe you want a belt so you can go back to your home country and defend it against journeymen for years like some fighters do.

              But if you're already the recognised best at the weight and already have more belts than anyone else and already beat the guys who hold the other belts...what is the point in going after guys who 100% expect to lose rather than seeking out new challenges?

              If Kessler beats AA and then fights Froch, I'd like to see Ward against the winner. But only because they would've earned the shot by establishing themselves as the clear #2 in the division, nothing to do with the shitty corrupt sanctioning orgs.

                No,Ward is not in another league to Andre Dirrel who dominated both AA and Froch but got robbed in the Froch fight.That belt Ward won from Froch is really Andre Dirrel`s belt.


                Andre Dirrel is just as skilled as Ward but he`s taller rangier and faster then Ward,He would give Ward a very tough fight.

                Ward has to at-least beat Andre Dirrel to clean out 168.

                    I'd like to see him with Dirrell if possible, it's the only fight im interested to see Ward against at 168.
