What Andre Ward needs to do

Ward got skills enough to beat Crusierweights. I mean, it;s not exactly a deep division loaded with talent.
Even if it was one fight there like 4 years from now against Hernandez, if he stays champ there, I'd be happy with that.
I mean, I'd be happy if he went to 175 at the least. He seems content just dominating 168, where he's already beaten basically anyone legit. Had Groves OFFICIALLY beaten Froch, I'd say lets see Ward-Groves. But Groves could always move up a year or two from now anyway to 175.Comment

But but but. He's too small for 175 (according to hunter) doe....
Ward should stay at '68 if he wants to stay unbeaten. The money that hbo gives him for fighting nobodies is crazyComment

Ward has been wanting to move up lol he says it all the time that Hunter is the one telling him to stay at 168Comment

I dont see ward moving up to 175 anytime soon. He seems the type that wants everything his way. kellerman talked about it how ward want's everything to be perfect before he fights someone.
I just don't see him going up 7 lbs to fight monsters like stevenson and kovalev. Heck I don't think a catchweight will; make it happen.Comment

Kovalev vs. Stevenson will happen at the end of next year. Dre has time. Ward has money to make at 168 that should not be left on the table: GGG, Chavez Jr., Froch rematch, Groves if he beats Froch.
That's 4 potential fights, all $3-5 million paydays, two of which will be PPVs.
The boxing fan in me wants him to move up but I can see why from a business perspective why it is a good idea to stay put for 1 more year.
Ward vs. Kovelev or Stevenson now = HBO WCB
Ward vs. the winner of Kovalev/Stevenson = PPV fight in 2015Comment
