    Yep. Kovalev takes on all foes. Ward dares to be mediocre. Likelihood of fight actually taking place: 10%.
    And what exactly are Ward's weaknesses? Ward mediocre and Kovalev takes on all foes, huh? Who hasn't Ward beaten in the 168 lb's category? In their primes much less. Now, who has Kovalev beaten besides an old Hopkins?

    Likelihood of fight taking place, 100%. Ward moved up specifically to fight Kovalev. Doesn't sound like someone daring to be mediocre.

      I would NEVER pick anyone against Ward. That's one of the most flawless fighters I ever seen.

        Haha. This dude still believes Ward is really going to fight Kovalev. Dre got you in his back pocket next to his wallet.

            Ward has a weak chin and beat 30+ year old over-the-hill European guys at home...

            Ward hasn't been tested at all...

            As soon as Kova connects with his glass jaw... all these Ward-suckers will find a new band wagon to jump on...

            Too bad CoWard is just posturing and will never take the fight until Kova is old and shows signs of wearing down just like Kessler and Froch were..

                Give Kovalev credit for daring to be great by fighting Andre Ward. He's got more balls than Golovkin, that's for sure.

                    Kovalev will slam him. He'll complain to the ref once or twice but if nothing is done, he will toss him into a corner for good measure. It'll get as ugly as Ward wants it to be.

                    I seriously doubt that Ward wants Kovalev "krushing" the back of his skull with rabbit punches because that is exactly what will happen if Ward makes it a clinchfest.

                      I can't imagine Ward moved up without the intention to fight Kovalev. You can't move into his division and then just pretend he isn't there. He'll fight him.

                      You can't bring up the age of Ward's opponents when Kov's best win is against.......a goddamn 50 year old.

                      CoWard is pretty LOL, though. I appreciate a good nickname.
