What makes you say that? He just fought and beat Paul Smith!!! That is something not even the great Tony Dodson could accomplish. A win of that magnitude puts you up there with the Steve Bendall's of this world.

We all know Smith was the comeback fight. A Smith that just took Arthur Abraham, a current world champion and also someone Ward beat handily, to a 12 round gruelling fight.

Smith is no world beater, but he was no slouch. Ward handled him comfortably.

Next up for Ward is anyone in the top 5. Possibly an alphabet champion, but certainly no more top 20 ranked guys below the top 5 spot if not higher.

I would love to see Ward try that posing and mauling falling in stuff with Kovalev. Kov would leave the ring minus a boot and Ward would waddle to Urgent Care to get it pulled outta his arse.

Right now Ward has really only one true option at 168 and that's James DeGale. It's a good fight with Ward the considerable favorite. Ward on points.

At 160, GGG is a good fight. With the weight advantage, Ward will be tough to beat. I like Ward on points.

At 175, he has Pascal, Kovalev, Stevenson, Alvarez and Beterbiev. These are tougher to call. Ward on points maybe, but the Kovalev fight is interesting.
