Apparently there are some hints of Andre Ward fighting once again in the Bay Area. In one of his latest tweets, Ward dropped the name of Oracle Arena as a possible venue for his next big fight. Ward is a big-time fighter in California, and he has taken a liking to having some of his biggest fights take place in Oracle Arena. So it should be no surprise that Ward is coming back to fight a big match in Oakland.
What is a little surprising is the man he tweeted with the news.
@MCHammer Gotta get you to my next fight at ORACLE!!

MC Hammer has become a pretty popular Bay Area fixture in recent years, and generally ends up in a lot of different places. It's a pretty odd pairing, and it's strange that Ward would be so eager to get him to his next fight. I guess Ward really wants to touch this.
