    I think he beats them both but Beterbiev has serious power so he has a chance.

      Ward was not such a great 175 fighter. he was great at 168, 175 not so much. I think both Russians would stand a chance.

          He'd outbox beterbiev and take a decision or late stoppage. Bivol would be competitive, but would fall short over the 12 round distance.

          Please stop underestimating Ward he's far better than given credit for.

            Ward was a chinny grappler. Don’t like his chances against a physically stronger opponent.

              Ward has a great IQ and a great pedigree, both would be good fights but Ward had proven more then both so i would bet on him

                Beterbiev is as good, if not a better boxer than Kovalev and has ungodly power. So I'd pick Beterbiev to beat Ward. Bivol/Ward would be interesting though

                    They were around while he was still active. Likely the reason he retired.
