    People put him at #2 now out of habbit. He doesn't deserve it.

    Other fighters actually have better wins and have looked equally impressive- especially when you consider in the last 2 years Ward has had a single fight. A complete no mark of a fight at that.

    Froch is the true SMW king

    Im not sure he would be in my top 10 P4P anyway, as Ward has not beaten a top prime SMW and has not beaten a top undefeated fighter. His best win is over a past best, rusty, unwell, faded fighter who had been beaten when prime by the previous champ when they were at the end of their career.
    I think there could be a good arguement for Froch who narrowly lost to Ward being rated above now and I doubt I would have Froch in my P4P top 10 list

    He's out once he's been inactive for 12 months + not having a fight lined up any time soon on my list.

    Ward has now had plenty of quality time off to recuperate and allow his shoulder to heal.
    I don't doubt that experiencing these legal difficulties has made him angry and frustrated. He says that Bernard Hopkins has helped him tremendously to get through it.
    Still, someone will have to pay in the future by absorbing all this anger and frustration Ward has endured.

    I don't doubt that Ward will come back even stronger than ever and will likely not hesitate to cross division boundries to squash some recent hypes and solidify his position as P4P #2 in the world.
    I'm sure he'll be watching Hopkinss-Kovalev very closely.
