Pointless article. When he was active Ward said that he couldnt make 168 anymore and that even making 175 was hard. He was talking about going to cruiser or heavy not down
He’s still dramatically bigger than Canelo and is smart enough to know how to use his size. Clinch fest. Itd be awful. Not sure how the GGG fight plays out but Ward is also much bigger than him.
Ward isnt just an amazing fighter, but that kind of size disadvantage would be near insurmountable because of his skill.
You wouldnt favor Crawford over GGG for the same reason.
Ward admitted he could no longer get down to 168 years ago. He hasn't made that weight in over five years and he's in his mid 30s. He'd be ****** to try it.
listen to this handsome paisan. it'd be a shame to see ward pimping out his career and legacy for that canelo money at 168 lbs. he'd be a zombie and he'd quite possibly get his ass kicked.
Ward can't go back to 168! Too late in the game! He could move up to 200, and he could probably win this year's WBSS, but I doubt if he could beat Usyk @ 200!
