Ward fighting Joshua is just a bunch of talk in my opinion. I doubt Ward will ever actually fight him. If he did he would lose by KO in my opinion. Ward is great at 168 and 175. Ward fighting a good 245 pound rock hard Joshua who has good hand speed and accuracy combined with great power is a bad idea. Ward can't maul him at close range because Joshua is much too strong. Ward doesn't have the power to hurt him either. I really can't see a way for Ward to win against Joshua. Joshua has a big height and reach advantage over Ward and Joshua has a good jab and straight right. Ward can't stay at long range and outbox him and he can't overpower him at close range. How can he win? When Joshua lands some bombs on him the fight will be over.

if the greatest clincher of the last 20 years couldnt beat joshua how can ward? i know ward has more variety in his cheat game but still. a leaping headbutt is going to take a lot of energy to deliver against someone so tall. joshua is the perfect height to low blow though so maybe he gets another "ko"

Hunter says Ward hasn't got any wear and tear on his body from boxing but in the same breath he wants to throw him in with AJ? When he knows in the back of his mind he may need to throw the towel in. It's sad.
Hunter isn't willing to sacrifice anyone. He was even against Khan fighting Canelo which is well documented. But he couldn't stop Khan from doing so.
My guess is, he's just saying this in case Ward decided to go ahead and fight Joshua but we know it will never happen so Hunter is just talking.
