Comments Thread For: Nelson: Ward Gets Drilled By Joshua, He Should Face Bellew

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former world champion and Sky Sports analyst Johnny Nelson believes Andre Ward (32-0, 16 KOs) would be making a very big mistake if he moves up to the heavyweight division to challenge IBF, IBO, WBA world champion Anthony Joshua (19-0, 19 KOs).

Bellew is the only opponent that could generate a payday for Ward THE cruiserweight limit. I agree that a fight Vs. Him is Andre's best opportunity outside of a ca$hout Vs. AJ.

There is no doubt in my mind that Ward can win a championship at cruiserweight.
Chit... I'd favor him Vs. Parker @HW

Only prob is a Bellew fight only makes sense in the UK.
Will Ward travel over seas for this fight??

Bellew Ward is an ok fight, I'd expect Ward to win it. Joshua might actually kill him.

Ward should only fight Joshua, or someone with a HW title. He's trying to make history, not compete at HW on a permanent basis. I still can't understand why he can't fight Stevenson? Ward signed a 3-year deal with HBO in October 2015, so I believe his contract is up!

bellew is getting Knocked out by parker, Ward should find someone else to lowblow KO, headbutt or rob thank you very much

Hey if there's a cheat division Ward wins the title hands down. He'll go undefeated as long as he bring his own blind referee and judges, what a joke. His best punch is the uppercut to the groin.

If Ward moves to cruiser he won't be fighting a title holder right away. He's smart enough to take 1 or 2 easy fights. A 25lb jump in weight is huge.

This fight would be bullying.

Hearn, Joshua, and even Ward aren't entertaining it.

Virgil was gassed up and talking pure s.hit.

Ward's going to be fighting Bellew for the WBC belt at cruiserweight, currently in talks. Great way to win a belt in another weight class, however I don't advise fighting Joshua at HW after. Go after Parker and try and win that title. I admire Ward's urge for greatness though, could just retire now off the Kovalev win but he wants more titles in other weight classes. Wants to move up 25lbs.
While other fighters won't even move up 8lbs.

Johnny Nelson was getting it wrong picking Kovalev over Ward in the rematch before the fight. He doesn't have any credibility. All he does is defend the British flag.
