    Dan Rafael doesn't ever know what he's talking about.

    All his reports mostly become false

    That's great news. Looks like Wards days of trying to pick on guys 20lbs smaller on fight night are over.
    HBO usually retains the right to turn down opponents, so fighting overmatched guys like Paul Smith should be over also.
    I enjoy watching Ward fight at times, so I hope this gets his career moving some. Great fights to be made.

    He has reported on his Twitter many times that he was going to take advantage of the cheap all you can eat buffets while in Vegas to cover a fight.
    I have no reason to doubt the accuracy of these reports.

    It's dumb that Ward is going to 175. Ward and Kovalev should be at a catchweight of 171-172. That's fair.

    Ward is a 168 lb fighter.

    i bet you'd like that, a dehydrated KOvalev, just like Dawson. And how is he 168 fighter when his last fight was at 172? he's not growing younger you know...

    Ward is a 168 lb fighter. Let's hope he doesn't go 175, that would be really stupid.

    168, that's it.

    I believe Cotto was at Ward-Smith weigh in. They are probably friends the two. But who's Ward going to fight? It should be someone significant for the fight to be labeled a "co-feature" with a mega event like Cotto vs Canelo.

    Great news if it comes to fruition. Hopefully it won't take 5 years to fulfill the 3 fights.

    Bute,Pascal,Hopkins...easy fights to adjust to the weight and decent names for his resume

    Hopefully, it's all rumours. Needs to be 168.

    Yeah those could work. Bhop is the co-promoter through Golden Boy I imagine? He wouldn't mind getting in the ring with Ward I guess.
