Let's say Ward beats Kovalev and Stevenson and moves up for Glowacki in November 2017. How does it go?
Ward vs Glowacki

1. It's unlikely that Ward moves on that quickly (with the HBO obligation out of the way, Ward can chase the Stevenson unification fight and likely reign as unified champion for a while, before considering what's next)
2. Any further move up will depend on where Ward physically is (even after the bulk-up, Ward walked into the ring for the Barrera fight in the mid 180s; adding another 15 pounds to the frame is going to change a lot of things, imo).
November 2017 is definitely too soon for that last bulk up (any move up will likely coincide with Ward getting his body up to 200-210lbs for a shot at a heavyweight title, if that were to ever materialize); Ward will likely rule the light heavyweight division for as long as he wants to, imo.
