Who's Ward supposed to beat? Obviously, we can't assess his longevity for a while, but just in the last 2 1/2 years, he's beaten Miranda, Kessler, Green, Abraham, Bika, and Froch.
I think Kessler deserves a rematch. Bute would be a logical fight. Also Hopkins and maybe down the line a fight with Chad Dawson.
Did Kessler deserve a rematch against Calzaghe? Did Hopkins?
No, because neither of those fighters had the skillset to deal with Calzaghe. Calzaghe/Kessler was a clean fight. Hopkins/Calzaghe wasn't clean, but it was decisive.

Kessler/Ward was extremely tarnished and foul play was stamped all over it. Kessler didn't deserve to be held and rammed all evening.
