    Ward's so out of shape now, he'll have to fight Jermain Taylor for his warm up.

      Andre Ward is still loved in the Bay Area, and he's been a face on HBO Championship Boxing, in the last two years, at least half a dozen times.

      You add in that Ken Hershman went out of his way to get Ward to HBO, and there's bound to be HBO money still backing Ward.

      Ward strings together 2-3 fights, and he's back beyond where he was before the Dawson fight.

        Lol Andre Ward should move down to 160? If anything he needs to move up and fight #Kovalboxer or Pascal...Nothing under 168 should even be thought about from a health standpoint alone...

            Ward is a bore draw who has been out for a year, casuals bring the money in, and most have probably forgotten who the fck he is.

            Seriously this guy will need to change his diva attitude, he is an even bigger entitled diva than Rigondeaux, and does not have a fan friendly style that will draw people in.

            GGG's star is rising, and if Ward wants him (not sure he really does) he should accept his status as the B side and move down to 160 to face Golovking.

            His ''star'' is rapidly diminishing, he's being left behind, Groves has probably earned more than him during his career

            He will not face KOvalev because he knows he'd get KTFO, and Golovking will smack him silly at 160.. so in truth he is pretty much stuck.

            He should probably fight on Golovking's undercards to build his name back up, but the poor narcissistic ''son of god'' will never be humbled.

            the sad part is he was finally getting the respect he deserved after the dawson fight to people that said he was boring were even giving him credit sucks i honestly feel sorry for him i mean seriously people who are we to decide whats best for andre ward how do we know his promoter wasnt holding him back give the guy a break

              GGG is more of a threat than Kovalev. Matter a fact, Abel Sanchez said GGG whooped Kovalev's ass in sparring. Knocked him down too. I understand why you have a red bar, For ******ed posts like these.

                  Ward thinks that his talent should warrant him bigger purses but he, just like Rigondeaux, and many before them fail to realize that boxing like many other sports has changed in the last 20 years.

                  Boxing fans today just like in any other sport prefer a more offensive fan friendly style. It's why the rules for football and basketball have changed to favor a more offensive game and bring in more fans.

                  Essentially if you don't bring what the fans want you'll be forgotten.

                    GGG has literally zero chance of beating Ward. Kovalev probably has a 40% chance right now given Ward's inactivity.

                      Spadafora whooped Floyd's ass in sparring doe **** so does that make Spadafora better than Floyd? ****ing moron sparring means nothing and do you have video proof of this GGG knocking Kovalev down in sparring and whooping his ass? Only asshats like you worry about the green and red k. I'm sorry I don't create alts to give myself reputation. I've been on this site since 2004 and a poster since 2006 unlike your *****ass. I'm also a Floyd Mayweather fan which will get you automatic red K especially in the times of the Hatton brigade on here. Don't you have some looting to do while acting like you're protesting for a good cause?
