    And move up to heavyweight and come in at 218 pounds, except Ward hasn't been in prison so he would have all the right resources.

    Also, how does a prime Andre Bishop and Prime Ward match up end?

    Discuss!

    Nah. Although he's still developing, a large part of his game, I feel, is on the inside and outsmarting/roughing people up. The higher he goes up in weight, the harder this'll be for him to do. At most, I see him going up to cruiserweight. But he'll spend the majority of his remaining career at LHW, where he'll be equally as successful as he's been at SMW.

    Ward didn't wanna fight Dawson at a catchweight of 170 pounds, so he damn sure ain't going to heavyweight division.

    It would be too much of a weight jump. I believe he could beat some HW fighters but it depends on their style and probably no top 20 or even 30 HWs

    Quite similar careers,

    Both successful amateurs

    Both broke the left hand during a fight and still won
    If ward goes to pen and tyson fury gives wards brother brain damage. I can see there careers ending the same

    Even though Ward must be strong as f*ck(really, I know he just knows how to use his strength), he really looks to have rather skinny arms and legs. So I don't see him having the frame to pack on much more muscle.

    Lhw will probably be his max, though surely if matched against the right cruisers, he would out box them also. Same thing with some of the blown up cruisers masquerading as heavyweights.

    He might have a slight shot at an ancient Vitali, but wlad would beat him decivesively, If Arreola, peter, Adamek or any of these other inferior fighters get a belt he'd have a chance
