Ward is currently not being pressed to make a mandatory defense by any of the three sanctioning bodies that he represents.

Of course not. The rules do not apply to Andre Ward. We found that out on June 17th, and every fight of his career preceding. Bellew-Ward, I can't think of a worse matchup.

Automatic "Fighter of the Year" for Ward if this fight goes down & wins this.

My main problem with this fight is the off-chance that Bellew wins. He will be unbearable

Andre would make a clown out of Bellew at cruiserweight, punishing him worse than Adonis did.

Make it happen!

For beating Tony Bellew? Bellew is too slow to even hit him, the matchup is a joke. Maybe you think Bellew has the size advantage but he doesn't. Virgil said Ward walked around at 200 when he fought at 168. With all the muscle he added before the Kovalev rematch and moving up to 175, you can bet he walks around at least 205, maybe 210 already. Another six months of training with the same **** that helped him gain so much muscle the last 6 months, and he will be 220.

What does Bellew weigh again? Oh yeah 213 vs Haye. So Ward is already within striking distance of his size, and can actually be the bigger man by fall if he keeps doing what he's been doing.

Andre Ward vs Tony Bellew at the same exact weight. Who is better lol? It's not even a contest. Like I said, terrible matchup.

Why would he have a Mando? Cleverly is fighting Jack and WBO are **** at enforcement. His IBF Mando will be determined on July 29th.... plz use logic next time it's in your name after all.
