Andre Ward will face Edwin Rodriguez on November 16

    Andre Ward(26-0-0(14 KO) will face unbeaten Edwin Rodriguez(24-0-0(16 KO) on November 16 this year. Well Ward was looking for an opponent for some time, just I didn't think he looked for someone on that level. I mean Ward had a  shoulder surgery and planned to have 1-1 easy fights before some strong opponent.

   I believe HBO was interested in Ward-Rodriguez fight more than in Ward-NoName fight.  Couse I see big risk  for WBA super middleweight champ in this fight. Yes Ward is strong and fast. He made a big statement when he won super-six tournament destroying big names as Carl Froch, Arthur Abraham, Mikkel Kessler. In his last fight he destroyd Chad Dawson by TKO round 10, Chad was also dropped on rounds 3 and 4. He is definitely a real deal.
