        They called out Froch and challenged Ward to either meet at 164 or work to build a fight at 168. Right now there is nothing at 168 to move up for, better fights at 160.

          The only better fight he is going to take is vs canelo and that’s because it’s a lot of money at stake

            He's been at 160 his entire career, why would he do it now?

            If he did it would have to be a lucrative offer. Case in point, Calzage.

                GGG himself already said no to moving up for now. No Big names right now at SMW, so why.
                I would love him to fight the winner of the WBSS maybe you can add Zurdo too and that would be great!

                    So in this hypothetical situation, 3rd fight happens at 168?
