Wards rating at 168?

[amat]

I think Rozzy has it right though you could probably shuffle that bottom order around. I think Ward slips into the middle and if he's serious he will climb to the top because he and Dirrell are better then anyone on the bottom half of that list.

It's a bit unfair to have Andrade over Froch too. But that is the right top `0 and with the win Ward goes to the mid-bottom of the top 10. Also, how long is Kessler allowed to sit? He hasn't had a relevant win in over 2 years and haas nothing scheduled.

I rate Froch and Andrade about equal. Andrade came within seconds of KOing Bute, who I rate higher than Taylor, but Froch managed to put away Taylor. Also, I credit Andrade for his overall better competition and decisive wins over Mack, Steiglitz, and Tsypko. I think Andrade would do the same thing to Taylor that Froch did to him, minus getting knocked on his ass.

A logical fight for Ward is Bika. Bika has a belt and has a recognizable name. He has been in with Bute, Calzaghe, and Soliman. I doubt Ward will get a fight with Froch because Froch is searching for bigger money fights and has already been in contact with Bute. Bute has the Andrade rematch with Froch. Andrade same.

Why is Balszay so high on your list? Has he fought anyone other than Inkin?

this thread is sooooo retarded...

if the options were...

A - 1-3
B- 4-6
C-7-10
D- Higher

this thread would be a tad bit interesting.

but 1,2 or 3 for a man who isnt even a world champ is just pure retarded!!

You can flip flop Balszay and Taylor, but looking at the records of fighters below Balszay, do any of them (except Taylor at 160) have a win better than Inkin? He's a belt holder and he beat an undefeated belt holder. That's more than Green, Ward, Bika, or Dirrell has done.
