    I like Froch, but he's talking nonsense.
    Ward isn't afraid of any fighter at 175. Ward knew the Roc Nation gravy train was coming to an end.

    It's going to be hard for Ward to go back to making $2 million purses compared to the $5 million and $6.5 million purses he got in the 1st and 2nd Kovalev fights. Ward is just waiting for the highest paying fight he can get, which could be a Tony Bellew fight if Bellew stops Haye again.

    I agree, Kovalev fight was very tough for Ward. Fighting these guys like Bivol, Beterbiev and Gvozdyk just don’t entice Ward for the risk. It’s messed up and if he fights at 175 again anytime soon then I will see it as a duck tbh.
