Comments Thread For: Ward Names Pavlik as Possible Foe, Talks Move To 175

[Mr. Philadel]

...because Kelly Pavlik would be a terrible opponent.

not really....Pavlik is a type of fighter that you have to keep your hazzard lights on with because he can turn them out with a big right hand...the boy is still dangerous imo

[T.Horton]

Ward still has one more name at '68 until he can officially say he's cleaned it out; Dirrell.

damn shame that that fight won't happen. I believe Dirrell is the second best smw out there. Skill wise.

[Rip Chudd]

did you want to elaborate on why you think that or are you going to continue to act like a Mongoloid?

No need to expound upon it Tim, he's right, Pavlik is a terrible opponent. The only reason he's being mentioned is because his name, not his skill or lack there of in the ring.

Ward would beat the living hell out of Pavlik. I'd watch it, though, just to see if Ward could stop him.

What about Bute? I don't understand this idea that because Froch blitzed Bute that it counts on Ward's resume...

I agree. I really just wanted somebody to elaborate. Most people come on here and talk 'triangle theories' 'his style is all right for that guy' etc. but nobody ever says why which often leads me to believe that they don't know what the F they are talking about.

That's why I was asking for somebody to embellish a bit whether the details they gave were true or untrue.

still the people i directed the question at have said nothing.

Bute doesn't deserve it. Froch was his step up to the elite level, he got destroyed. Why should he get to fight the best fighter in the division after that?

Until Dawson comes out and say that he feelt weak and drained in the fight, people need to shut the **** up.

Dawson looked good in there, Ward just won because he was the better fighter period

I believe that he beats Dawson at 175, too. Just saying there are not a lot of options out there for Ward and taking on and defeating Dawson at LHW will further solidify his standing as the best (Or second best) P4P fighter in the world.

Andre doesn't even have a title, hasn't fought this year and literally ran from a Ward fight while they were in the tournament. There isn't that much value in that fight (even though I'd like to see it personally).As far as I'm concerned hes already cleaned out 168.

I would like to see him and Dawson rematch at 175, a fight with Pascal or Cloud would be interesting also because now you're dealing with bigger punchers at a higher weight class. He has several options.

Shouldn't Bute need to do at least SOMETHING to deserve the fight?
