Andre Ward is a great fighter

[TheThirdEye]

He needs a convincing win against Kov this time around and beat Stevenson. Beat Joe Smith for good measure

I know if he does beat them the nay sayers will say that he already had lost and Stevenson was old.

That's the spririt, if he pass through the krusher, he must add the Lineal belt to his current collection, to become the Undisputed King of the LHW division.
All mandatories will have to fight for one single murged title. Kovalev nor Ward shouldn't Duck that opportunity; Like you said: Stevenson is an old man.

He is a great fighter. Some people just love to hate. To put so much time and anger into hating a boxer, or any sportsman, says way more about the individual doing the hating.
