    Maybe he meant that this will be his first real massive test.

    Kovalev is serious business right now.

    Duva said they were ready to fight but Ward wanted his tune ups. She couldn't understand it.

    Ward has no plans to fight Kovalev.

    Golovkin fought SIX top middleweights during the period when Ward fought ONE bum. Golovkin will likely have two unification fights within a year, while Ward will keep fighting bums or retire.

    Kessler and Froch were smaller fighters. Ward hasn't faced anybody of his own size yet except the limited Rodriguez.

    Froch is quite a big guy, slender but big.

    Top3 Biggest SMW in the last 10 years are probably
    1 Andrade
    2 Bute
    3 Froch

    Oosthiozen is irrelevant to be counted

    How are they smaller fighters?

    Andre Ward 6'1", 71" reach
    Mikkel Kessler 6'1" 73" reach (74" on wiki)
    Carl Froch 6'1" 76" reach
    Sergey Kovalev 6' 72" reach

    Are you saying smaller because Ward gets up to 190 in between fights? Because what they weigh when they're "off" is irrelevant.

    I agree, honestly I don't like this mindset that people have adopted in that losing to a p4p fighter somehow makes you an instant fraud.

    That's most likely the biggest reason why fighters are so protected nowadays, we've got ourselves to blame for it.

    hahaha...oooooooo!!! 6 top mw's!!!!

    its funny to listen to you jerkoffs talk about wards inactivity and lack of fights over teh last couple of years....yet if he did fight and fought the level of comp ggg did youd be trying to kill him too "why is he wasting his time with this level of comp blah blah...what a joke blah blah".....i can hear it now.....you guys would have gone either way with your hate......worry about your favorite fighter since its obvious you are very invested in ggg emotionally....worry about him making something out of his own career
