    Default Who would you like Ward to fight next?

    I think Ward is going to be a hard boxer to match as he is to good for his own good.


    Its interesting that Froch seems to have a lot more options after losing to Ward than the winner of the fight does.

    I think Ward's biggest problem is going to be that unless a big name is in the opposite corner not a lot of fans are going to be interested.

    He SHOULD fight Bute to settle who really is the best at 168 but as you said Froch seems to have more appeal and there are talks for Froch to have two fights with Bute. I think he might go for his mandatory Antony Dirrell which should be routine for Ward. He does need to push a Bute fight though, that would be great for his record.

    I can see Ward fighting a lesser opponent in his next fight, then maybe Bute late next summer. I think that fight will happen, they both seem like fighters who don't want to duck anybody.

    I hope Andre Dirrell can get back in form in his next fight and challenge Bute. If don't Andre against Bute, then Kessler against Bute would be intriguing. Ward is going to take a break with his broken hand. So Bute can get a fight in before a possible showdown. If Ward do get back in the ring, Anthony Dirrell as his mandatory or Hopkins as the money pit.

    I'd like to see him against Bute or Andre Dirrell.

    I thought prior to the Ward/Froch fight that Ward would beat Froch and then Bute would fight Froch, which is what's happening. Froch versus Bute does good money in Canada and will do good money in Britain assuming the first fight is good. Ward will beat Anthony Dirrell and then will face Andre Direll while Bute faces Froch twice.

    Once again its down to the fighter being boring.
    Ward, Chad Dawson, The Klitchkos, are some of the fighters I would not be bothered to watch.
    There fights are boring 90 percent of the time.
    I didnt mind the first half of the Ward/Froch fight. Wards skills were impressive to watch but the second half of the fight he reverted to the style he used against Kessler. Jump in, hold and punch a little on the way out.
    Chad Dawson has no heart and the Klitchkos spend most of the fight playing with there food. We know you can beat the other guy easily so stop trying to make out he has the slightest chance. If they finished there opponents when they should I would have more respect for them.
    Sorry bout the rant. Just had to get that off my chest.

    I want to see him fight a pressure fighter. I thought Dirrell was going to be his toughest fight in the super six.... that turned out to be some bullshit. They will probably never fight now.

    Clear up Super middle Bute, the 2 Dirrells, Froch in UK, Kessler then move to light heavy.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I think he should clear up the Super middle weight division too. Facing both Dirrell brothers would be nice to see then of course Bute. Can't say i'd want to see Ward vs Froch or Kessler again though. In my Opinion if Ward got a gold medal in the olympics at Light Heavy weight then thats where he belongs.

    I read that Ward and Dirrell are really close friends (perhaps the reason the fight didn't happen). I think Ward-Bute then either Abraham or a rematch with Froch, then 175.

    Would LOVE for Ward to try to take on Cloud
