    Discuss.

    Think about Ward's resume if he were to pull this off.

    Wow!

    Kovalev (A top 5 p4p fighter, undefeated, destroying everyone, Ward will be a sizable underdog)
    Dawson ( Lineal at that time but it was at 168 )
    Froch
    Kessler
    Miranda
    Abraham
    Rodriguez
    Green
    Bika
    Barrera

    #1 p4p NO DOUBT if he pulls this off. H.O.F bound, ATG even.

    Off course! It's gonna be the best win of his since Kovalev is a KO artist and he's undefeated. Besides, Kovalev is at him prime now.

    I doubt Ward can do it.

    Kovlev wins by the late stoppage.

    Be his best performance IF he beats barrera, never mind kovalev. You really needed other people's opinions on him (simply unreasonable) that wards see the end of a barrera fight, making all buy important surviving to live through kovalev

    A bit of me dislikes Ward and doesn't want to admit it, just because he's made himself so dis-likable. But if he took down Kova convincingly, I'd say that's a fair call for putting him definitely within the top 200 ATG list.

    But I realistically don't see him doing it. That's not to say he can't, I just think Kovalev is far too hard a puncher, and far too accurate. It all comes down to Ward's inside work, and if he can get there consistently. Kova is my fav at the mo, next to GGG and Porter, so there's always that bit of me that doesn't wanna concede that Ward stands a chance. But I think he does stand a chance, being at his level.

    Kovalev is the most unstoppable man H2H in boxing right now. It would an incredible victory.

    Nope. I believe Ward is the bookies favourite. And let's be honest, the fight will take place in Oakland where Ward will be juicing.

    The best win of this era is The Furious One™ schooling Vlad in his back garden.

    Has very good wins over Froch and Kessler, but neither compare to Kovalev.Dawson was dehydrated, so that one shouldn't really count. His skills undeniable, but so are Kovalev's. Kov would be his best win by far and vice versa. Best win of this era, no way.

    I never made an actual prediction. Stop derailing the thread.
