I'm with Kim on this. Ward forced Dawson to weight drain, now he wants a guy who's primary skill is being bigger than MW's. Back when Bute was a threat and willing, he was telling Bute to earn it!
So Bute needs to earn a fight...... but he'll drag Dawson down AND bring Junior up? Even though neither have done jack**** at 168? Classic Ward ***** moves :rofl
People trying to suggest another Froch or Kessler fight need to stop. Both guys get beat again so stop. Its a waste of time. Chavez is a shitty fight that I doubt gets made anyways.
The only other fight out there is a rematch of one of his clear decisive victories, e.g. Froch Kessler winner... Of course, he does have to wait until that fight actually happens before he knows who his so called "top contender" is, ergo, why not an easy one-sided PAY DAY?? Kim, like Kellerman, is just trying to be a "tough" journalist for attention
Its funny how a guy can literally dominate the best opponents in his division pretty in a row and yet can still be hated on... People asking for him to fight outside his home country, people claiming he's ducking 2 opponents he already fought and demolished, and now people complaining that the #2 p4p fighter in the world is looking for a well deserved payday... That's boxing fans for you... smh
but he makes valid points. ward is arguably by far the #1 sm ni the world. the top man. he should fight the best out there, I mean he already did, but continue. steve is right, he gonne fight an untechnical chavez jr. who lost 11 out of 12 rounds vs martinez? what besides money is the point, he would not even win a single minute, because ward is arguably the best technical boxer in the game.
Love these guys like Steve Kim who trash talk boxers. Kim is nothing but a twitter warrior and would **** his pants if Ward jabbed his ass once.
Ward doesn't have a lot of options outside of Pascal-Bute winner or rematching Kessler-Bute winner. The Kessler and Bute fights I see as pointless. Pascal probably beats Bute and that is a good fight. Pascal has the speed and power to trouble Ward. Perhaps throw in Adonis Stevenson into the mix. I wouldn't mind seeing Ward fight Thomas O. but I think the guy is still a little too green at this point to fight Ward. There really are no great fighters besides Hopkins for Ward to face and I don't even think the purists want to see that fight.
If Kessler beats Froch Ward should fight him next... Ward has been talking about unfinished businessand should stick to his word... regardless of what some ignorant fanboys claim..
