    Default Ward to come back to face Canelo?

    Is that a possibility for Ward? It is a fight he may be able to win. What do you think?

    I'd think this is the one fight Ward probably would come out of retirement for. The question is why would Canelo push for it? Kind of a lose lose and he certainly doesn't need Ward to make crazy money.

    Why would Canelo want to get his junk punched?

    Ward doesn't deserve the payday.

    Can you imagine what a backwards step this would be for Alvarez big picture. Sure, why cement legacy at 175 with current top threats when you can get over on a full time mic worker who beat your best years before you did.

    Not even Canelo would sink this low. He has some standards.

    You're too kind, Master. But that did give me a good hearty laugh.

    Oh.... I think as long as Ward could hobble walk up the steps to the ring apron and manage the ropes...... Canelo would fight him.

    "Canelo" and "standards" don't really belong in the same sentence paragraph document.

    Just feed Ward the same cows they give Canelo. He would be fine.

    I’d be impressed if Canelo made a Ward fight. I mean, what does he have to gain from it? Ward won’t bring him extra money because Ward would want to be paid more than he’d bring. Ward is far bigger than him and a rough customer. Sure Ward has been out of the game but he’s only barely 36 and lives clean. Just keep stacking up guys GGG refused to fight while GGG fights Szeremeta(I’m guessing on the name because he’s a nobody, GGGs favorite)

    That makes one of us. By the time boxing's back online and a fight like this is made and promoted enough, Ward will have been inactive for well over 3 years. If he's not 37 already by that time, he'll be pushing it.

    Ward far bigger and a rough customer? Kov was "far bigger" and an even "rougher" customer. The quote marks on "rougher" are there for a reason. The Kov that faced Canelo was the pre-calculated Bambi of the division.

    Size won't mean anything by the time Canelo is finished playing his Catchweight Advanced Mathematics, and drags Ward to whatever weight Canelo feels he'll be the most vulnerable.

    Money? Canelo can smoke million dollar bills. It's all about the (cough) legacy for Canelo. Never mind the Beterbievs of the world who can only dream of a matchup that will never be made.

    I get your hate for GGG just like I abhor Canelo's otherwordly hype. But being impressed by Canelo-Ward just to make a point about GGG?

    C'mon man.......

    Maybe after Ward, Canelo can entice Floyd to come in at a puffed up 168 and put another notch on his (cough) Franchise Belt.

    I think the time has past for a Ward return if it was going to happen. And if he did, I doubt it would be below cruiserweight.

    Canelo would have no purpose to fight Ward at this point unless he could convince Ward to weight drain himself and get every advantage possible. All it could possibly do is hurt his legacy.

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    The fact is GGG has fought at 160 for his entire career. Post #87, 5th August 2022

    That's ok neither did Canelo until his do over yeh, depending on who you talk to. I had Nelo squeaking II out. Might have missed something but when exactly was Golovkins title run at 175 again.
