andre ward- does inactivity/weak opposition matter?

[Weltschmerz]

We will really get to see if he fights Sergey. Ward is at a level that it doesn't become an issue to him fighting B level guys.

[Scipio2009]

can top fighters go years without fighting anyone who can fight back (e.g andre ward), yet raise their game when it matters against a top fighter like kovalev? Or does five years of fighting noone with a pulse reduce a fighters skill levels that significantly? i.e is ward going to be the same ward who was fighting world level opponents in the super six? Please discuss...

[Larry the boss]

[Larry the boss]

Im just gone be real and post a serious post...WHY THE **** DO KNOWN GGG FANS KEEP QUESTIONING WARD??? why are ya'll so focused on him in a negative way? You can not down his resume or recent comp and praise GGG at all period..GGG is fighting ****ing Brook next after he just faced Dominic ****ing Wade....Call a spade a spade damit!!!

Stop blaming everyone else for this **** drama show he is giving ya'll and accepting it. It is smoke and mirrors people, now if Ward does not fight Kovalev, **** ON HIM ALL YOU WANT AND I WILL JOIN IT!!!!!!...But stop slamming fighters who dare to be great and praise others who only talk about it damn!!!

It has to matter. He hasn't faced a top opponent in years. It's almost like he's rebuilding his career to an extent.

His last fight was a complete waste as far as getting acclimated to the weight which would be my biggest concern. Had he fought a legit LHW in size at the very least, I would be more comfortable picking him to win. The Skills are there he's not going to forget how to fight, but not facin anyone near elite will definitely be a cause for concer against Kovalev as far as adapting to his size, power, and most importantly timing.

Ward hasn't done **** outside of the Super Six, which was a division nobody cared about at the time, and Ward got all home fights. JT was way past prime, AA was a MW, Froch & Kessler were thought of as second-class Euros and Dirrell didn't fight Ward. So who gives a **** about Ward? He's boring & his nickname is blasphemous.

It's nice to see you passionately support a white fighter for once.

yeah pretty much what i thought. Not exactly the all star line up that ward fans claim it to be.
