Ward's ambition to fight at heavyweight

I've just read an interview by Gabriel Montoya with Andre Ward, where he reiterated his desire to fight at Heavyweight.

The interview was informative, probing and likeable, but this statement stole the limelight from the rest of his statements.
Just wondering do posters believe this is ever a possibility?

Yeah it's definately possible, but is it wise, I'm not so sure

I think it would definitely be a bad idea considering he is not that big and would completely lack power at that weight.

He could beat Valuev IMO.

Hell I think I would stand a chance against Valuev over 6 rounds.LOL

It's possible, but not a smart move. He has no power at 168 so he's definitely not going to have power above 200. He could probably just outbox guys and win rounds, but all it's going to take is one clean shot. Maybe against a smaller HW like Ademak, but not against a Klitschko size fighter.

James Toney use to say it and people thought it could not happen, and Roy did it also think B Hop could pull it off. Yes I think he could pull it off against a weak Ruiz type champion in 8 years time after he has cleaned all the divisions and beaten the great Froch and Bute.
