    Well he can fight anyone and beat anyone he chooses now he has a good strategy. All he has to do is rock his opponent with one good punch then finish them off with low blows

    Stevenson is the fight that makes sense. But can it be done? Ward is an HBO guy, they can't win any sort of bidding situation. Would Ward be willing to fight on another network? Where do they stage the fight? Last fight of Stevenson's the crowd seemed sparce. Stevensons network in Wards town makes the most sense as it is most profitable but doubt that happens.

    Stevenson will be 40 this year, I would think he/his managers will decide to "cash him out" some time soon, there is only so much money to be made fighting karpency and bika in quebec after all.. I dont know if ward pays enough for stevenson to take him on though, i would guess he is more likely to take on kovalev than ward.


    As for ward I doubt he will make mandatory defences of his belts and look to poach belts from the higher weight classes from weak champions, I think ward is pretty close to being retired now and fair enough he has done great.

    I couldn't care less. He is horrible to watch, cheats in every fight and should be boycotted.

    Might be easier to just list who you aren't boycotting

    Giving his proficiency for riding a beltline maybe Abner Mares Todays Hopkins if he wants to see his future years in a mirror.

    Basically James Toney.

    Just not into these divas that cheat. Once fair enough as bad things do happen, but Wards legacy from Kessler to this and it's a trail of butts, low blows and shenanigans. He was outboxed by Kovalev twice and yet still the Americans go on about him being sublime and the best in the world. It's utter nonsense.

    Seeing the end in slow motion just makes me more angry. Kovalev actually did better in this fight. He let his hands go more and sure it was a rubbish round 8, but to stop it on a full blow to the meat and vegetables is one of the worst things I have seen in boxing. Up there with the Khan/Barerra fight. Kovalev was winning this fight and all the stats back that up. Ward waking up for 1 minute does does equal a win or make any cancellation of how he lost half the fight. Kovalev's stock goes up for me as I think he made the adjustments he needed to. Same as with Groves who is better than Froch.

    You are boycotting Floyd and Ward. I'll give you a list of other fighters to boycott. Crawford, Loma, Rigo, GGG, Chocolatito...I think there's a pattern here. Are you just boycotting the best fighters?

    Nah, it boils down to Ward and Mayweather. One is a cheat and the other is pisstaker.

    I'm into most other fighters and especially James Toney. I love Lomachenko and think he is the best fighter since Joe Calzaghe. GGG is great too. Rigo is borderline boycotted after that last fight. He has one more chance when he fights again in the next 2 years.

    I think Cruiserweight is pretty decent right now and Ward would struggle with the size of those fellas. I mean he just now looks like a real light heavyweight.

    I mean for example against Usyk he would be giving up 7 inches in reach.
