I doubt Ward will get that big money fight in Europe.

    HBO won't make fights because they were not even close the first time around. I bet they will persuade Ward to move up to set up a Stevenson or Kovalev fight. Guys he hasn't already beat.

      True. Froch and Kessler wouldn't want to get their asses kicked again, after all.

        Ward owes Kessler a rematch, after all that butting/holding and shady refereeing in Oakland. Its a shame Kessler is in decline; it'd have been an even fight a few years back if Ward had adhered to the rules.

          Ward is a good fighter with skills, but often his fights are actually scrappy, much like Bradley. Scrappy fights where refs have to get in all the time are boring to me.

          However, I do like his left hand right now, very powerful even if Rodriguez is literally a punching bag the way his stance and hands are.

            Point is neither really has incentive to travel do they?
            Carl Froch:
            Jermain Taylor – $600,000
            Super 6 Tournament – $750K to $1 Million Per fight
            Lucian Bute – $1 Million
            Yusaf Mack - ?

              I get tired of people acting like Andre owes them a rematch in Europe; no way in hell he does he beat both them easily so if they want a rematch they can travel to the winner.

                Kessler is done. He just doesn't look like he has the heart to take shots like he once did.

                      Ward haters:

                      Froch fans
                      Kessler fans
                      Abraham fans
                      And a few Floyd fans that got upset because of their mini back and forth


                      What's funny is boxing fans caring more about how much money each guy makes than their actual skills in the ring. Sound like some female gold diggers.

                      "Girl I like Carl Froch. He makes money and can make me popular and help my career"
