    When ever he can no longer make 168 and is ready to move up to 175. He needs to get active at 168 again first since that is HIS DIVISION

    Sadly it is just not much going on at 175 besides Kovalev and Kovalev himself is not a "BIG PAYDAY" right now. Stevenson is with Haymon, he is with Roc Nation so that fight would be hard to make if not IMPOSSIBLE! Moving up to fight 1 Guy really don't make sense while at 168 he is far more potential match ups/good paydays than at 175

    Ward will get up to 175 and I don't think he will have any fear what so ever stepping in with Kovalev especially if it = Great Payday!

      I would have to go back over 3 months of articles on every boxing site on the net. I simply don't have the time or the inclination. Be my guest if you feel like doing it. I never 'make things up' nor do I repeat posts from random people on other sites. Whenever I do post something such as that, it is because I have read it on a reputable boxing or sports web site such as RING or Yahoo or MSN Sports or TSN or RDS or ESPN or other genuine site. Not a fan site.


      Could not find the exact quote or article but did find this on Roc Nation from Steve Kim with a quick search...



      Speaking of Ward, word is he received a multi-million-dollar signing bonus to come over and a contract with seven-figure guaranteed minimums. It was thought he would be Roc Nation***8217;s franchise fighter, who could command dates on premium cable networks and allow other boxers to develop on his undercards. Problem is as he keeps insisting on tune-up fights that would pay him lucrative amounts, HBO has made it clear that ,for the time being, that wasn***8217;t in their plans. Ward and his representatives reached out to Showtime only to find lukewarm interest in his services.



      Somewhere up there, Dan Goossen must be chuckling.

Ward is no longer on any P4P list unless you find one that has not been updated since last year. Ward is in no position to call the shots over anyone. The guy can't even find a network to show his fights. IF he actually had a fight lined up, that is.
          He's the lineal SMW and LHW champion. P4p no.2. He calls the shots and tell who he wants to fight him at the jOakland bingohall doe. And he gets major dough doe.

            How can he be the lineal LHW champion when he has never fought at that weight and Stevenson happens to be the lineal LHW champ. He may be number 2 on your personal P4P list but he has been removed from every list that actually matters. RING have even stripped him of their title and dropped him out of their top 10 rankings. Are you really that ******? Seriously?

              Hopkins was never offered, both mutually agreed not to fight each other.

              Traveling to Denmark or England, while I think he should and would love to see him do it, that is optional because he already beat both of those fighters. People don't wait for "REVENGE" to COME TO THEM usually the "GO GET REVENGE". So if Froch or Kessler want revenge (which I don't think they do because I don't think either really feel they can win but is trying to look interested to impress their fans) they should GO GET IT! He is with Roc Nation, they're willing to put up BIG MONEY so the excuse that "IT IS NO MONEY IN FIGHTING WARD IN THE US" is no longer a good excuse

              Fans of James DeGale, I see him Calling out Froch but ZERO MENTION OF WARD! Same with Groves and most of them at 168 they don't even mention Ward! Chavez Jr is now at 168 is he not? I don't see any of these fighters you list mentioning or Challenging Ward! Just like nobody challenges Rigondeaux in his Division or GGG or Kovalev!

                He became lineal LHW champ when he beat the lineal champion doe. It doesn't matter if that the fight was at 168 as long as it was below 175 doe. Ward hasn't lost that title doe. Ask sprayresistance if you want. He knows the deal doe.

                  It sure won't happen anytime soon. Ward isn't stepping in with Kovalev unless he has at least one return bout. Nor should he.

                    Ward doesnt need to move up there is plenty of stella competition in his division now

                    Degale, Dirrell brothers, Froch, Groves..hopefully Triple G and many more

                    He's at the right place and time

                    I have no doubt in my mind Kov will knock seven bells out of Ward. IMO Ward is to small for the LHW division. Kov will eventually move up to Cruiser.

                    I think even Stevenson wud battar him
