    I don't remember seeing a thread on this all day, but I finally checked on the rumor and there are some news sources reporting this, and that they're looking ahead to 2016 for Ward-Kovalev.

    Probably the best fight to be made in boxing.

    First things first let's see how Ward looks against Smith, he's been out of the ring for a while....

    But Kovalev should be fighting Stevenson or Beterbiev not ward

    Still a good fight though

    Would prefer Kovalev-Stevenson but would definitely watch.

    Yeah that's going a bit far... But going to be nice to see Kovalev knock him into retirement. Ward has caused boxing a lot of damage by sitting on belts and not fighting the best competition around. He should have moved up to LHW years ago.

    Bring it on. Ward is going to beat him up.

    I just hope they make kovalev the underdog so I can make abit of money of him.

    Ward has little chance against kovalev.

    Where are the rest of them claiming Ward wins EASILY? For that matter what could both promoters be duscussing so early other than just how difficult it will be to make a fight with Ward due to his deluded nature.

    Would be great if they could come to terms but a lot could go wrong and prevent this fight from happening, so I won't hold my breath. Ward is notoriously difficult to deal with but at least both sides seem willing to entertain the idea of a fight.
