Super middleweight champion Andre Ward could be featured as an undercard fighter in one of the most anticipated matches this fall - the Miguel Cotto vs. Saul "Canelo" Alvarez bout on Nov. 21, at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Boxing Scene reported.

The HBO Pay-Per-View event is advertised as an exciting fight showcasing the rivalry between Puerto Rico and Mexico. 

The winner of the Cotto-Canelo fight will have the chance to sport four belts next year if he beats the winner of the Gennady Golovkin vs. David Lemieux October fight, which will be held at the Madison Square Garden in New York. Millions of boxing fans will definitely tune in to watch the match, and it will be a good exposure for the undefeated Ward (28-0, 15 KOs).

Roc Nation CEO Michael Yorkmark, who promotes both Cotto and Ward, believes this will be a great break for Ward to be part of this major PPV event.

"We think it would be good for him, a showcase PPV, it would be good for the PPV and he showed interest in being on the undercard... The decision should be next week," Yorkmark told ESPN Deportes, as quoted by Boxing Scene.

Truly, being part of the Cotto-Canelo undercard may allow boxing enthusiasts who are not so much familiar with him, to witness his performance on the ring.

But to be part of the undercard lineup is a double-edged sword for Ward as it may also make his negotiations with a possible fight against Golovkin more difficult. By fighting in an undercard, it will clearly put him on the B-side.

It is still worth a shot, though, because what's important is to make his presence known, especially by the Kazakh's team. In an earlier article of Boxing Scene, Golovkin's trainer, Abel Sanchez, bluntly said that Ward is not "relevant" this time.

"It's good to see him fighting on the undercard. Ward needs to become more relevant. As long as he's fighting and he's winning and looking good it makes a fight with Gennady more viable. But right now Gennady's intent is to be fighting the Lemieux then the winner of Canelo-Cotto," Sanchez said.

"We'd go from 154 or 168 to if it makes financial sense, it doesn't make financial sense to fight Andre Ward at 168 or at any weight because Andre likes to have everything his way. He's not the A-side here," the world-class trainer added.
