I'm assuming Kovalev's team just gave Ward what he wanted? How could Ward agree to a ring size before he's had a chance to face a big 175 puncher before deciding? Not saying this in a "Ward is hard to negotiate with" kind of way but rather because that's not a smart move. If Ward agreed to this I'd assume because Kovalev gave him a large ring.
BS article from a semi ret@rded clown. it's from 2 months ago and they never say a date, it's just more bs that Ward will fight,,,yeah, like he did in the last 5 years.
I believe if this fight will happen if Kovalev and Ward wins their next fight. Kovalev is rumored to be fighting Brahmer or Fonfara next. He can beat them rather easily. However Barrera has the potential to spoil things for Ward.
Ward won't lose to Barrera.... Even if Barrera was to do good, it won't be enough to trump Ward... He knows how to win!

I'm not a betting man. But if I were, I'd bet on Kov as I picked him to stop Ward in the poll. I think he's a very bad man.
