    He also has the option of fighting one of the contenders at 175. Or he could fight Oosthuizen at 175.

    But it's very pathetic if he fights Oosthuizen at 168 or even at a catch weight, because Tommy has had trouble making 175 for his past couple of fights.
    Anthony Dirrel is fighting Badou Jack in April. DeGale and Andre Dirrell are fighting each other. Gilberto Ramirez's people said he isn't ready to fight DeGale but he's ready for Ward?

    You know this so why are you suggesting fights that can't be made?

      I asked you to name an opponent.
      I don't care if its for a title or not , that makes no difference to me and if its a catchweight id just wonder why he would bother, move up or don't is the way I look at it.

      I know you asked me to name an opponent and I said id be happy with any decent fighter in the division he's fighting in. Look at the top 10 ranked in the division and pick one, id rather whoever you pick than bringing another 175 lb fighter back down to 168 lbs, if he is staying at 168 that is.

        There are about 985 super middleweights to choose from:

        http://boxrec.com/ratings.php?countr...IT=Go&pageID=1

        So why does Andre Ward want to weight-drain some mediocre light heavyweight fighter who has been having trouble even making the 175 limit?

        Why would anybody support Andre Ward in doing this?

        The Son of Goat could always fight a mediocre super middleweight like George Groves who isn't weight drained.

          If it's not for a title then it means they don't have to come in at 168lbs.

          I asked you to name an opponent and so far you've still failed.

          George Groves has a mandatory shot at the WBC title. He just turned down a fight with DeGale for £2.5million but he's going to fight Andre Ward?

          Why are you suggesting fights that can't happen?

            The people who hate Andre Ward nowadays are just ****** supporters of Kovalev and Golivkin. If I was Ward I too could kick back for a few years and watch these two simmer before taking them apart. Mark my words, Ward will beat Kovalev and Golivkin if they ever meet and then people will be demanding that he moves up to cruiserweight

              Not true. I've only posted the truth. Just because it's ok for you that Ward is the Ottke of this generation with a dirtier style, with much less pull and much less activity, it doesn't have to apply for the rest of us.

              Ward hasn't fought any live body for 3 and a half years, fights exclusively in his homecountry, fails to fight his mandos etc. And now he has made a depressed LHW an offer. You like it. I dont. I think it's lame.

                Ward shouldn't be re-included in p4p lists because of this fight

                It's a pitiful showcase of a fight for a so-called top 5 p4p fighter

                  So much wrong in this post.

                    Tommy Gunn is undisciplined. He showed a lot of promise years ago, but no longer. He's really big and skilled, so we'll see if he can show some of that talent in the biggest fight of his career.

                    This is a tune up for Andrea, though. Not a good comeback fight. Tommy fights at 175 now too...

                      We know what you don't like.

                      I can just imagine you sitting there naked with a rasher of bacon around your crusty old pecker getting ready to pleasure yourself to Kessler's "coming out party" in America. Only for him to proceed to get easily and comprehensive smacked around by a relative novice

                      It was too much for you to take especially after the Calzaghe undressing in front of 50,000 in Cardiff.

                      You've never recovered mentally from those embarrassments.
