    In your opinion, what does Andre Ward need to do to go down as an ATG?

    Exactly what he's doing now. Fighting the best. It's arguable that he's already the greatest super middleweight of all time. Won't be long before that point can no longer be debated.

    It gonna be tough unless better fighters come along.
    Hes can go to 175 and beat the guys up there, but then again,theres no legends up there either.

    Guy just need to keep beating whoever comes along.

    He might get stuck in the RJJ situation of not having a tonne of great fighters to fight

    Dominate the division as he is doing, leave America once or twice won't do him any harm (in terms of silencing the remaining critics), step up and clean out 175 later in his career.

    Just keep racking up the names, between SMW and LHW. Pavlik, Froch again, Kessler again, Chavez Jr, Trout, Pascal, Cleverly if he steps up in the coming years and maybe even Bute if he shows improvement.

    It would help by;

    By taking out GGG, who could go on to do great things.

    Moving up and taking Cleverly's zero.

    Beating Dawson at two weights.

    Hes pretty much cleaned out SMW already.

    He could just go up and rematch Dawson at 175

    besides Dawson (my opinion is he'd win again), there's really nobody who could be at least the bit competative against Ward

    maybe he should go after Bute at 168? better option for Bute, getting outboxed instead of suffering another brutal beating at the hands of Froch
