If Kessler beats Froch he'll fight Ward in the late autumn. Stevenson has to be dealt with within 90 days first though.

Could Andre Ward be in danger of being frozen out?

Andre is on the shelf for a while and when he returns he should take a tune up bout if he's smart.
A big money fight for him won't come until the latter part of the year. There should be plenty of options available for him by then.Last edited by ShoulderRoll; 01-26-2013, 08:53 AM.

I would add that he doesn't seem to be somebody that is gonna start living like a Saudi prince having made a few bucks, so maybe the financial pressure is not that great.

Before the Dawson fight I would say that he was in danger of becoming a Tim Bradley type guy. Talented as hell but no draw power.
He did put on a good show against Dawson though and that helped him. The Pavlik fight would have helped him more but I think he will be ok. Someone in that division will be looking to elevate themeselves by fighting Ward.

ward is still the lineal champion and last time I checked that's the title that counts...
so he loses all the 'paid' belts...who gives a rats ass
whomever emerges on top in ward's absence is going to be lurking in ward's shadow...
martinez had little drawing power and went without the wbc belt for 2 years and still everybody wanted to fight him...it should be no different for ward
