    One of them will look pretty bad if it doesn't get made.

      Would have to be at lhw because no way he makes 168.

        So you think it'll be made?

          I highly doubt Ward would offer Oosthuizen a fight not for the 168 lb title.

            Ward already stated that he wouldn't accept the terms as dictated by Froch. Froch wants the fight in England where both fighters would make the most $$. Problem is, Andre doesn't travel to fight no one. If you want to fight him, you have to be the one to travel.

              It's been ordered by the WBA so if they don't agree terms, it will go to purse bids.

              If Eddie Hearn wins the purse bid, it goes to England. So Ward either vacates or gets on a plane.

              Or Roc Nation wins the bid and Froch goes to America or vacates.

              Like I said, someone will have to budge since it's been ordered and someone will look bad if they vacate given the public statements that have been made by both.

                  Hearn bid $2.1M for Andre Dirrell-DeGale. How much higher will he go for Ward-Froch? 3.5M?

                  The problem for Team Froch is that the split percentage is going to favor Ward if it goes to purse bids.

                    Good point. 75-25 to the Super champ?

                    They'd be better to negotiate the bout, which they probably will. I don't see Froch taking short money to fight in the US.

                      I think the Loser of the pursebid gives up his title. If it goes that far that is. I cannot see that fight getting made.
