Ward isn't fighting Beterbiev, Stevenson, Bivol, or any other of those no name LHW's

[Finito2K]

Ward has reached Mayeather level (in his mind) where he's only looking to fight in big events against name fighters. There are no big name cruiserweights. That's why they mentioned Heavyweight and said there's no money in a Stevenson fight. I can see him fighting Bellew at heavyweight if he's willing to travel overseas. They're serious about the Joshua fight but Joshua is way too big for him. Ward isn't gonna go back to fighting the likes of Beterbiev on HBO for $2 mil dollars. I'd love to see the Stevenson fight but Ward isn't interested in that fight.

The guy can't draw a decent crowd even when he's fought at home. An Andre Ward fight isn't synonymous with "Big Events".

It's about whatever you want it to be about

Stevenson is the only one that makes sense. Bellew as well. I don't see him facing Beater Beebs, not cause he can't beat him but because the risk is too high for someone virtually unknown. I don't think he'll go to Cruiser to face Usyk, who is too big and quick. After that, Golovkin if he beats Canelo might be a good fight for both of them. Tho Triple G has some unfinished business at Super Middleweight first, so maybe like 2-3 fights down the line. I don't know, I don't see Ward taking risks now (he shouldn't) which limits the opponents.

Simple fact...virgil says why should we have to travel when we are the champ....virgil also says...when they arent the champ...why should we have to travel....we are the A side....andre ward doesnt travel...period.

Except that hes not Mayweather. Not at the gate. Not on PPV. Hes not getting $5-6M per fight after this PPV does ~150K on PPV. Roc Nation isnt just gonna continue giving their money away.

Ward should chase the Stevenson fight. Nothing else out there for him unless Golovkin jumps 15 pounds after the Canelo fight.

Rumors are Roc Nation is out. He's going to Top Rank.

He could make a ton of money fighting Bellew and that's a winnable fight. Not sure if he'll travel tho.

He's said it's a dream of his to fight in Europe.

[just the facts]

Ward can make decent money with Stevenson but is he willing fight in Canada.

and can HBO and showtime come together.

Ward should stop dreaming. He has zero chance against Bellow. Ward is jr. heavyweight fighter, he can only fight Kovalev again or other guys in division.
