    He should fight GGG, winner of Froch Groves, Kovalev or Adonis etc. Make it happen.

    Stevenson would beat the **** outta Ward.

    Ward isn't strong enough to bully him, and his boxing will be exposed by the very talented Stevenson.

    Stevenson by KO.

    Yvon Michel was interviewed last week after Al Haymon joined the Stevenson team, and he mentioned Ward as a fight HBO would like to make. Can't wait to hear more.


    I don't think Stevenson would "expose" Ward, but I think his strength would keep Ward on the outside... I think Ward wins a boring UD using his jab and right hand counters, with Stevenson being a threat in every round. No way does Stevenson land a monster left on Ward's jaw, Ward's ring IQ is too high.

    I think Ward looks kind of mechanical on the outside recently. Stevenson seems like a more natural outside fighter, plus he would have a significant reach advantage.

    I think he appeared to be "mechanical" because E-Rod's punch selection was limited. The greater the threat, the more versatile and fluid Ward looks.

    Good point on the reach advantage. I just think Stevenson would get extremely frustrated by Ward's lateral movement, quick counters and ability to slip & clinch.
