Comments Thread For: WBA: Andre Ward Will Have To Face Kessler-Magee Winner

[kiaba360]

why? what does froch have anything to do with ward bute? if bute wins his next fight here it would be a good fight. styles make fights. or would you rather see him rematch the same guys over and over again

My assumption is, Bute is gonna fight Froch after Grachev. If he loses to Froch yet again, I don't see the point in Ward fighting him. I'm not saying that Froch/Bute is an indication of how Ward/Bute would play out, but it doesn't look good on Ward to fight Bute coming off a loss. If Bute loses again, Ward should fight Froch in the UK. I would like for him to travel for his last fight @168, whether that be to Denmark or Nottingham. One of Ward's biggest criticisms is that he has not had to do battle in foreign territory. It would be good for his career if he struck while the pan is hot. Froch and Kessler can sell in their respective hometowns, so why not take the risk?

He won't have to fight the winner because neither of those guys will actually want to fight Ward when the time comes.

Kessler will win, then a week later his team will say "We offered Ward 2 million dollars to come to Copenhagen and he declined. We will not go to the US because we are little crybaby b*tches who haven't accepted our first ass kicking and continue to blame the officials"

Then Kessler will say he is staying at 175 and just fight the easiest guy available to him.

yeah cos on the of chance Magee pulls of an upset there's no way he'd travel for a payday

Its not like he fought Froch and many other English fighters in England, Bute in Canada, and Larsen, Markussen and Kessler in Denmark. Along with also fighting in Costa Rica last year.

He's terrified of going on the road.

Looks like Magee's ass kicking tour is going to the states after he demolishes Kessler!

Wanna bet on Kessler/Magee? 5B even odds?

kessler is never gonna fight ward again, especially now when he has a big payday ahead against froch in a winnable fight. he wasnt on wards level before, since then ward has got significantly better while kessler just got older. at this point i think ward stops him, either way hes gonna make easy work of him again and theres no way sauerland will allow that when they can make such good money fighting guys like green and magee in copenhagen.

yeah that'll do.

bet confirmed

Can Ward fight both of them simultaneously? That's the only way it's going to be interesting.

That's not going to happen. The contract was set before the first fight. The rematch is coming if they both win this month.
