Now as for Ward travelling, perhaps he should BUT not just for the sake of his critics. He is the champ and that means the challanger comes to him. You want Wlad to leave Germany and fly to the UK to fight Haye? Some champs MAY travel but thats up to them.

Anyway, in light of what happened between Dirrel and Froch in the UK, I would not go if I were Ward. Why risk a controversial decision when you dont have to??

In fact this question is so good, I will ask it again:

Why Risk A Controversial Decision When You Dont Have Too?
I'm not saying that. The fact is he had his way through the tourney and for the most part since in a variety of ways if one looks at it objectively. I'm also saying that this notion that somehow England is responsible for screwing up on the world stage is urban legend.

And I'll answer your question with a question. Try to imagine boxing history if everyone felt that way. What do you see?
I admit he had it good in the tourny but the fact remains that now he could unneccessarilf fly to the uk to lose a close fight.
