But he won't. He'll want Golovkin to move up to 168, and Stevenson to move down to 168. Either fight would need to be in California.

Conditions should be 1) a neutral referee (not a California Boxing Commission ref like Jack Reiss) for a change 2) random PED testing. But Ward would never fight with a Canadian, UK or mainland European ref, and he'll never agree to random PED testing.

I'll never respect Ward until he agrees to neutral referees and PED testing - why should anyone respect someone who cheats with head butts and steroids?
Ward last fought at 160 back in 2006. It's moronic for him to try. I'm sure he'll sell out and try and do it for the 10 million plus he would get for fighting Mayweather. But Golovkin ain't Mayweather. He don't bring the payday Floyd does. Not only that Ward knows Mayweather calls the shots in a fight between them. Against Golovkin, Ward would be the one calling the shots. Fighting him at 160 wouldn't even be an option

He already dominated Froch once already. What would be the point of fighting him again? It would be an even more lopsided fight

Steve Smoger is a east coast referee. Luis Pabon is a Puerto Rican referee. Those were the referees for Ward last 3 fights (Smoger twice). So I don't know where this he needs a California ref to fight nonsense comes from
