Who gave andre ward his sternest test so far?

Kessler would have beaten him, had he not been hold 88 times without Ward getting a penalty and with Ward headbutting him all the time.

 

Sakio bika

 

clearly Bika, it's not even close with anyone else, Bika what he lacks in craft he more than makes up in MAN.....actually says alot about Ward that he won the way he did against that type of guy

 

Bika.

Alot of peeps had that fight a draw

I was at the rose garden for the Boone fight. Ward was summarily booed after that fight. I guess the feelings from the fans towards him haven't changed.

 

i got a feeling edwin rodriguez wants the added weight hoping to use his size & power to try & get ward out early

 

Boone and Bika

 

I felt Boone beat Ward, felt it was a close against Froch and that Bika held his own, but scored both Froch and Bika to Ward

 

This. ^^^

Really enjoyed that fight.

 

these 2 but Ward managed to find a way to get the job done and win. :good

 

Bika. I think either dirrell could give ward some trouble though. Let's see how anthony dirrell handles bika

 

Boone, Miranda, Bika then Kessler.

 

I had Bika winning 5 rounds. Froch winning 4 rounds.

 

Boone fight doesn't count. Ward was a kid just learning still.

Bika gave Ward his toughest fight, but he also took the worst beating of any Ward opponent (granted it was the result of head-butts and elbows).

Froch was completely ineffective against Andre. I rewatched that fight recently thinking how could Carl change anything for a rematch and it made me think there's no point to a rematch.

Which makes me wonder why Andre wouldn't just negotiate himself some big money fights to go over to England and Denmark and fight those two again. As long as the judging and ref are legit he has nothing to worry about and he'll become a bigger global name and probably earn his biggest paydays yet.
