If Ward faces Kovalev in the next year or 2 - should the fight be in Oakland?

    What do you all think?

    It makes perfect sense to me.

    Yes and it should be at 168 with Ward wearing a Viking helmet so his headbutts are more effective.

    Ward's going to need to get his momentum back, big time, for that term to be back on the table unless he's willing to concede everything else.

    It's going to take more than a tune-up or two.

    If anything this fight should take place in Chelyabinsk if drawing power was the sole determining factor of the location.

    I think they should split the purse 90/10 in Ward's favour too and Kovalev should wear whatever gloves Ward demands and he should only be allowed to punch to the body.

    Hardly. Ward is clearly the A-side, and Kovalev better take that test.

    Idiots around here were saying the same thing about Hopkins.

    Yes, a Viking helmet should be in order. I also believe Ward should have some advantages because he is so popular in US. He is also so talented that he should give some additional demands to Kovalev.

    Yes because it will be far sweeter for the Krusher to stop him in his hometown.
