    SES/Stieglitz would demand a shitload of money to come to the US deliver that belt to Ward. And Ward earns about 2M per fight.

    I don't think the required 4 to 6 mill would be available. Stieglitz can make that money over a couple years by defending against a few average guys.

    The overrated ward will probably fight Johnny nobody and the fight will take place in wards hometown as usual with his uncle as ref and his three cousins as judges....
    Why do you ask?

    Such a shame he is so much bigger than GGG....a real champion who doesn't even need to fight in his home CONTINENT!

    sad but true. as for his next opponent, i cant feel confident its going to be any real title contender. i feel he needs to enjoy his high spot because its really going to come crashing down hard and fast.

    he needs to secure a easy fight, like the froch groves winner. because he has real threats all around him. he can beat stevenson i feel but kov and ggg spell real bad news for him

    Mild trolling? :lol:

    I asked because I can't think of anyone decent who would be willing and available. Not to mention 'HBO approved' for a fight that costs them a 3 mill fee... 2M and a bit if it's a top 20 kind of guy. That is, on the short and mid term... can't think of a meaningful fight he could get in 2014.

    Not available before late 2014 anyway, and only if A) Groves wins + B) he's willing to take a pay cut to come to America give his titles to Ward. Can't see Froch wanting to do that, can't see Ward humoring Froch and getting a B side share in the UK.

    For some reason I have a feeling the location will be Oakland, California.

    If JCCjr "beats" Vera, it'll be Jr., possibly in Vegas. If not, it'll be the winner of Froch/groves
