    That's what I was getting at. I give him a good chance to win. Ward has been inactive too long and lots of rust to shake. I'm curious to see how he handles this really hungry lion in a new division.

    Can't wait.

      Well it's not saying much, lots of guys at Lhw get ranked 3 with a Ward scalp. But yeah, not a bad fight and possibly Wards toughest opponent since Froch, when you factor in the weight

There was literally no reason Andre to wait around for GG. Ward could have pulled a Golovkin and hung around a dead division but he sought greatness at 175 instead. Where would he be now if he was fighting more dead weight at 168? GGG still wouldn't take the fight, claiming Canelo is a bigger fight, and people would be ridiculing Ward. So, no, I don't see your point. No disrespect though.
        It would be one fight bro he would be in the same place he is now. Fighting a can at 175

          Exactly.

          Barrera is not coming to play; he's coming to KO Ward. Hoping for no headbutts, excessive clinches, or disqualification.

          I haven't been following this story much. Who's the ref? What were their weights today? Thanks for your time.

            I'm starting to think you don't understand what's going on or how boxing works.

              He's not considered exciting in the ring but Ward is the one guy making me excited about boxing this year. 2016 is looking dim but he may actually save it from being a dud...which is completely the opposite thing he's done over the past 2 years. I'm rooting for him (and Kovalev, really).
