After Andre, he goes through Bute/Kessler/2x Groves/Mack. Many have him 9-10 atm, would a Ward win up him to a 4-5?
3 or 4 on my list currently, especially since Ward is inactive for the moment, when Ward fights again he'll go back in.
Great stuff. I do think Ward should fight someone decent until he gets back in, he should not be fighting fringe contenders. I think a Kessler/Froch/Stieglitz fight would be great.
I've actually given up on Ward. I used to follow him and pull hard for him. But now I just don't care. The inactivity just doesn't make it worth it being a fan.
Years? It hasn't even been a year and a half yet. He fought Nov 2013. Calm down. He'll be back soon. :tong
After Floyd Pac and Wlad he's the current best, he hasn't been nearly as hit and miss as Tim and Juan Manuel, and has fought more top comp than Rigo. So yeah Froch deserves a higher ranking at the moment. Hopefully since Froch literally just called out Ward to fight him in England they can finally have a rematch.:happy
If it does happen in England, they need to get neutral judges, a neutral ref so British stoppages do not occur and British robberies also. We all know how it is over there. :good
Yeah I hate English refs with a passion. No one from the US or UK should have anything to do with the match it should be totally neutral.:thumbsup
Going off of right now, it's just that he almost has to be the #1 in the world. Manny and Floyd have declined. Wlad is 38. Ward is inactive. Bradley just isn't. That leaves him and GGG. And Golovkin hasn't fought anyone, but that's not his fault if people are ducking.
lol no, we need a good old British stoppage so everyone can laugh at Ward and regale the great Carl Froch.
