Would beating Krusher now be Ward's biggest victory?

[HanzGruber]

Probably pfp wise. Don't remember where froch was when he beat him

[The Viper]

2 wins over Vernon Forrest at WW.

that was a prime Forest also........

I don't think the fight with Kovalev happens. Andre Ward would get KTFO, not just KO, and he knows it.

[Damn Wicked]

2 wins over Vernon Forrest at WW.

He said who were his best wins ABOVE welterweight. He said his best win ABOVE welterweight was a shot, fat Vargas that was getting Ko'd often at that point in his career.

[nubianpiye]

Froch has the better resume and is wards best win.

[bojangles1987]

Without question.

[bojangles1987]

He toyed with and made a prime Froch look like an amateur.....with ONE hand!

It basically comes down to who you hold to a higher standard. Froch (at the time of his loss; in his prime) or current Kovalev.

Froch is one of my all time favorite fighters, but he was never as good as Kovalev is.

[IRON Mike.]

moot point because Krusher k.o.'s him easy

[Superbee]

You forgot the "won't happen" option... I'm baffled at anyone still believing this fight as actually a chance to happen...ever...

[Citizen Koba]

It's impressive.

He defeated the #1 LHW contender at the time, Hopkins (http://www.tbrb.org/2015/10/10/14-october-2014/).
Then he defeated the #3 LHW contender at the time, Pascal I (http://www.tbrb.org/2015/10/10/10-march-2015/).
He's fighting the #3 LHW contender at the end of January, Pascal II (http://www.tbrb.org/all-rankings/).

And #3 at the time Campillo and #5 Cleverly.

Both these wins have come to look less impressive over time but when Kovalev fought both these guys they were justifiably considered top LHWs.

I still remember the excitement in 2013 watching Kovalev and Stevenson tearing through the LHW ranks and savouring the inevitable clash... ... bastards.
