    Sanchez knows that Ward is just another easy walk for GGG. With one but, Ward behaves like a spoiled woman wants everything and doesn't to do a thing for that.

    If Abel means people who weigh over 200lbs then yeah. If he means actual contenders in the HW division then no.

    LOL @ people bringing Ward in again, Ward won't even sign to fight Barrera - wants another Smith. Ward beats Froch on points and years later he's somehow an ATG boogieman who no one wants to fight. It's laughable.

    Why on earth would sparring with HWs be a good thing for GGG?

    Beyond the soundbite of being able to say "he spars heavyweights!!" - how would any trainer seriously see that as beneficial? So no, I call nonsense.

    Abel Sanchez is a massive bull**** artist trying to hype his fighter, so no I don't believe him.

    I remember a video of Kirkland "sparring" a heavyweight. Guy just looked like a fat middleweight, though.

    Get real!! Want has Ward done in the last 4 years to warrant a fight with GGG?? Fought 3 times against journeymen, & ducked out "injured : on two other recent matches, Ward does NOT deserve a fight with GGG or any top contender. He needs to EARN a shot first

    ggg knocked out povetkins sparring-partners in his old german times. i know it because i`m from germany. in the german communities there were some discussions about it, when he demolished prokza.

    so i think he does sparring with a couple heavyweights till today

    Yeah Ward comes back from 2 year hiatus and beats a Paul Smith while every fighter from 160-175 wants no parts of Andre Ward. LOL They are running in all directions to get away from this career killer!
