    Ward is currently eyeing a title shot at cruiserweight then he will take his talents to heavyweight and fight the winner of Wilder/Fury in 2020. You heard it here first. Expect an announcement from his camp in the coming days/weeks.

    Have a blessed day.

    Not a huge Ward guy, all the "God" mumbo jumbo talk I think he should be institutionalized with the rest of those folks...

    But the dude can box like few others. And hasn't gotten his proper due from fans, always makes me cheer them on a bit. For the sake of drama, curiosity, and entertainment, it sounds great for him to return at CW and/or HW. For the sake of his legacy in the history books, I don't think it's a great idea. "Dare to be Great(er)," I suppose. Hats off for it.

    I believe this as much as i believe Clenelo wanted Krusher.

    Zero. Point. Zero.

    Ward couldn't keep his punches above the belt against Kovalev.

    Can you imagine if Ward fought Wilder or Fury - who are seven and nine inches taller than Kovalev, respectively?

    Ward would be punching them in the knees.

    Hard pass.

    This. I love Pacquiao, but when he starts to talk about religion, I want to vomit.

    Is this true? I guess we will all find out soon enough...or not if the announcement never comes. I will believe it when I see it.
