    Im thinking Fonfara, Beterbiev(doubt his team takes that chance) or the guy who fought Kov's next opponent last.
    All 3 are with PBC and will not be fighting Ward on HBO under HBO's reduced budget.

    Shabranskyy is the best option. Give him $150K and make the damn fight!

            But seriously, I'll never down a guy for taking a chance and failing. That's really the only reason I have some respect for him. When you work on contracts (like myself) you don't have the safety of knowing you'll get that same paycheck every week, on time, and the check won't bounce and you have to go to court to spend money to get your money. Business is cut throat.

            But I wish he wasn't such a hater and used his past experience in the boxing world to bring something to the forum. But that man a hater

              Because as soon as he has an offer he rejects it and cries to the media instead of trying to iron out a deal.
              Ward is a home-town fighter he doesn't like travelling the super six prove that much the only one to not get on a plane to another country.

                What offers has he rejected? and what does traveling have to do with anything?

                  Kovalev isn't a big fight?

                  It is possible that Ward could sit, however, because there is very little money to make a fight for him given HBO’s budget constraints. Roc Nation approached Golden Boy about contender Vyacheslav Shabranskyy (16-0, 13 KOs) facing Ward, but they were way apart on the money.


                  Huh?

                    LOOOOOL!!!

                    Look!! This man has already made up his own story and we're only 3 pages in. Before you know it, in the future, they'll be saying Ward turned down Shabransky multiple times.

                      Shabranskyy is a pretty good prospect but I can't imagine he's ready for Ward. Bad fight.
