Why is everybody pushing andre ward to move up?

thing is froch cleaned out 168 for ward, if froch retired after the ward fight, ward would be even more irrelevent than he already is

ward can't afford to move up to 175, it will be too packed and there will be too many hard fights

 

never mind moving up he needs to get back in the ring asap.he's wasting his prime away.

 

:think

So...all the other notable fighters at 168lb. How is that not cleaning it out? :huh

So...the Dirrell brothers of whom the elder spent a long time on the shelf and the younger only just became relevant by going 1-0-1 against...Ward victim Bika?

DeGale, who only just started putting together a relevant streak of wins?

Groves who just got stopped twice by ...Ward victim Froch?

Chavez?

Golovkin who is a middleweight?

Is that keeping it real, or is that just your weird opinion?

He did lose, though - and I wouldn't brag about him "beating" Abraham since he did so by getting KTFO with an illegal shot.

 

Pushing him to move up ?
How about just have a fight ? It would be a start like

 

Why are Ward fans telling GGG to move up and fight in a higher weight division but don't want Ward to do the same when Kovalev calls him out.

 

Frankly, I've got no problem with someone dominating one class.

I have a problem with primes wasting away on the sidelines because a fighter seems impossible to make a match with, though. It's just a shame his careers taken a turn like this.

 

Once he resolves his promotional matters and gets back to business, I agree, NOW their are very good potential fights for him to take and the public is salivating for. But, unfortunately, tho he is regarded as the best 168lber for awhile now too, he isn't the A side, and he'll have to leave Oakland, especially for the biggest fights. I think he knows that and if he doesn't his team should let him know. I think 2 of the lucrative fights, Froch II and Chavez Jr, he will have to go to their house and beat them there. Same if GGG moves up, but I think GGG has more lucrative fights awaiting with a possible unification at 160, in a year or so. Same with Kovalev. Even with the likes of Groves or Degale, Ward might have to travel, if he wants the $$$. Ward is an exceptional fighter, he proved that as the victor of the Super 6, but alot has changed since then, and with new beasts/challengers like GGG, Kovalev, improved Froch, Pascal, Dirrell bros, and Beterbiev, his real tests might still be yet to come. Ward has said in the past he knows he can't stay at 168 too much longer.

 

Just fight anyone

 

calm down little hans.ward has taken himself out the game.you don't have to worry about ward schooling froch or another european figher again for awhile.bbb

 

When Ward is back, here are two other things I won't have to worry about:

1. Ward leaving Jokeland
2. Ward taking the test.

:hi::hi:

 

Cause fans can be sadistic bastages at times, and right now many of us just want to see Ward KTFO by KOvalev.

 

fighting anyone, at any weight, would be a nice turn of events.

 

Because he's cleaned the division out, I'm not pushing but I think he should, there's more action at 175 and only fights in that division will help his legacy but you know, it's up to him.
