ward is going to be a super middleweight until ggg decides he wants to receive an ass whoopin'.
After that, if stevenson or kovalev are still "the man" in the division, he will fight either fighter and get nsb to complain about how he won (instead of giving him props for dominating on the inside and outside).Comment

so you agree with me, you agree that moving up in weight is the likely move for Ward?? Against that backdrop, Adonis already believes he is Elite when he really isn't. Looked REAL average yesterday against a poop butt opponent. . He is seeking a payday. He will want to fight at home. That disposition will not play well with a Ward camp that is famous for being cheap, and unreasonable at the table. They had trouble signing Edwin to a contract. A b fighter. Kovalev and Kathy Duva meanwhile would cut the deal, and surrender all advantages in the blink of an eye. The business of boxing, its composition, its rules, dictate that the fight that is easier to make, gets made 90% of the time. Especially a fight drenched in intrigue like Ward/kovalev
If Adonis is seeking Froch (bigger name in diff weight class) or B Hop (also bigger name) then I'm sure he'd bite on Ward. I think (maybe I remember incorrectly) Adonis had mentioned he'd be willing to go to 168 for the right fight. I think Ward would leave Cali for some other "neutral" venue (in the states lol) for the right fights. If anything, B Hop looks like he could give Stevenson some trouble. So if they fight and Adonis doesnt come down then that could olay a factor. I dont think Ward would be hasty and move straight into a Kovalev fight right when moving up.
You're right about it being easier for them to make though... But that arena would be fairly empty. :/Comment

yes because kovalev or Stevenson would be calling for a fight with the 2nd best fighter in the world in ward. ward would be calling for a fight with a guy he beat already in froch. a guy who has no chance in chavez jr. and a guy who hasn't even fought another champion in his own weight class in golovkin.Comment

Ward will move up after he fights Triple G, Chavez and the winner of Groves vs Froch rematch
Ward is looking fot the big money fights, once he moves up he will not come back down.
So he is chasing Chavez,Comment
