In any case, team Lara doesn't even want it. Remember they got called out on it after Delvin, then took months to say they'd prefer Andy Lee. its no wonder, even Lara's manager barely gives him a chance

Second, damn straight they turned Ward down at 50/50 in September of 2015. His last fight was Paul Smith, a fighter ranked lower than any of GGG's previous 5 opponents. He's supposedly scheduled to be on an undercard of the Cotto fight and can't get an opponent. I doubt it's anyone in top 10 in either SMW or LHW.
He acted like a diva, made poor promotional decisions and barely fought in the last 3 years. There's absolutely NO reason he should get 50/50 from any top caliber fighter. Even Pascal should demand 60/40 from Ward.
GGG's team offered him a true "meet us in the middle" deal in early 2015 - 164 at 50/50. He rejected. That ship has sailed by now.
