    So Andre, who are you actually going to fight??

    You wont fight Kovalev or Stevenson, you wont fight GGG, you wont fight Froch yet you want a ppv fight?

    I have been a big fan of Ward but he just sounds more ridiculous by the day. Whats really sad though is watching some of his fans defend his ridiculous stance and statements. So come on! Who should he fight if not the fights all boxing fans want to see him have?

    It sounds like he wants a PPV fight only.... only PPV fights in his area is

    A) Chavez Jr in Vegas
    B) Froch in England on their PPV

    W/e, if that's his reason for waiting... wait away.

    He's unlikely to get either...so...yea

      I just cant think of anyone other than the aforementioned that would even come close to PPV, plus I think he's pissing into the wind a bit because he is getting largely forgotten and has no momentum going into a ppv fight. How the hell could you sell Ward as a PPV attraction. Its a sorry state of affairs.

          when will you idiots get it into your thick skulls that Ward does not need to fight anyone of note because he is the number one 168 pounder on the planet and never needs to defend that ranking or move up in weight.

          Bloody hell! what idiots!

            stevenson and kovalev arent in his weightclass. he shouldnt need to leave his division before he is ready to get a good fight, he will move up when the time is right for him meaning when he grows into the division.

            ggg wont fight him, not the other way around. all ward has said is he wont move down to make it happen, which is reasonable. ward would be a fool to make the same mistake dawson made against him. as for golovkin moving up, the same thing applies to him as it does ward. he will move up when he is ready.

            froch is the one who wont fight ward too, not the other way around. they say ward doesnt sell enough tickets yet they include bika in the conversation. they talk about degale, kessler, even paul and callum smith but not ward. if his name is brought up by someone else they are quick to dismiss it and change the subject. they want chavez jr, someone whos status exceeds his ability. not the opposite in ward.

            there really arent many options for ward, both froch and kessler refuse to fight him. who else is there at 168lbs? surely chavez jr if he moves up would rather take on froch considering thats a much easier fight.

            ward needs to forget about getting a PPV fight and just stay busy. anthony dirrell, sakio bika or james degale would all be decent defenses. just because you deserve to be on PPV doesnt mean you will, ward is being too much of a baby about it. its an unfair situation but he has to make the best of it.

                He's also talking like GGG is a PPV..... nope. that's why Golovkin is scratching and clawing to get B-side on somebody else's PPV.... he didn't.

                You know what he's doing instead of sitting around doing nothing hoping for a PPV? He's taking fights and trying to build himself into that role.

                How can anybody think that right now Ward/GGG is a PPV? No way Ward thinks that.

                  I can't wait to hear him talk trash about the fight when he's been trying to get the Chavez fight for himself all year.
