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

[Light_Speed]

The problem is...who is there at 175 that is any better than his options at 168?

Pascal is not necessarily better but he's different, he's faster and more explosive than Kessler and Froch, even faster than Dawson (hands and feet) so it would be an interesting fight.

All that's left for Ward @168 are rematches

Not regular rematches, rematches against guys he dominated.

If Kessler wins hopefully Ward will do the honourable thing and rematch Kessler in his hometown. That would shut up his critics and Ward would have a chance to prove he can beat Kessler without an insanely biased referee.

You mean in Kessler hometown where they allow him to illegally wrap his hands .. Yeah that will go over real well .. Kessler win in his hometown because they allow him to get away with so much illegal **** .

I honestly don't see the point of Ward vs Kessler II if he wins...I think Ward shuts him out this time without "HEADBUTTS" that Kessler fans still B1TCH About

Ward will smother the hell out of Kessler and destroy him inside...EASILY! As for Magee lol that would be even EASIER!

As for going to Denmark for Kessler? FOR WHAT? Ward is in completely control over anybody in his Division when it comes to Negotiations, he is the Top P4P and has all the Belts...No Need to go to Denmark for Kessler, not that it would really matter to be honest, it would take EXTREMELY CORRUPTION in Denmark for Kessler to defeat Ward and even that might not help, because if Ward fights like he did against Dawson...He stops Kessler!

Vacate that super belt, Ward has bigger fish to fry than Kessler and Magee.

Like who????

[ShoulderRoll]

For the sake of argument, let's say that Ward agrees to go to Denmark to fight Kessler.

What type of a payday is he looking at? Will it be $3 million to $3.5 million? If Sauerland wants to pay him handsomely (better than any of his other options) I'm sure he would consider it.

Like who????

Gennady Golovkin has said he will fight Ward at 168, Andre Dirrell would be another good name and maybe step up to 175 and get a belt there.


He's already beat Kessler convincingly and Magee does not belong in the elite class.

I guess that will be a good fight for Ward who ever wins.

[Red Power]

I hope Ward fights Pavlik in January, get the year started nice and early. Then the Froch/Bute II winner in the fall. No sense in a Kessler rematch and even less sense laying your undefeated record on the line against a Sauerland fighter, just ask Carl Froch.

[MDPopescu]

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

I would rather watch Ward Bute than Ward vs Abraham rematch or Kelly Pavlik

Ward knows that Bute is a bad match-up for him -- as Froch was for Bute... That is why Andre sent Lucian in Froch's arms...

I don't see many fighters looking to meet Ward -- Andre doesn't kill fighters, but he kills all opponents' fighting style... That is Ward's "genius" -- unfortunately, he can't make big money out of this... Andre would need to provide full boxing shows -- which he can't... by construction...
