    The only big money fights there he could stick around for are:
    Martinez
    Chavez Jr (but that dude is like a CW)

          Hearn is already in negotiations to set up Froch vs Chavez jr at the MGM, expect it to be announced after Froch beats groves.

          Ward's problem is he doesn't sell tickets, Chavez jr see Froch as a bigger money fight and also a more winnable fight

          Ward needs to move up and try get a 50% split with Adonis or Pascal in canada, that's his best chance to make a buck

            They should make him a big offer to travel to the US. I know people are saying he should move up, but I don't think Ward moves up. So, it's Froch, Chavez or Stieglitz.

              Yeah well Ward vs Martinez/Chavez are still jokes of fights. Regardless of how anyone tries to sell them. If he wants big money for those guys he better be ready to get criticized cause it'll happen and it will be accurate.

                Well he said he only looks for fights that enhances his legacy right?
                I guess Martinez... but he'll get a ton of crap for that
                With that said, there's nothing at SMW for him, dud literally cleaned it

                  I would like to see Chavez beat Froch or the Bika/Dirrell winner first before fighting Ward. It would give the fight some credibility. Right now it would be a one sided exhibition and it would be an awful look for Ward's first PPV if that's what HBO is planning to do.

                  Come to think of it I do think its time to move up. He's cleaned out the division and there won't be any new blood in it until 2015 when GGG moves up and I don't think that will be a competitive fight.

                      Tough call, should probably stay at 168 until someone shakes loose from the pack at 175.

                      Not really much left at 168 unless someone moves up, but I am sure the can dig up someone for him to fight.
