Ok, I'm not gonna bother with a poll, lets just slash it out.
This topic got me thinking, from the "is ward the most overated blah blah"
but someone did mention that his style is ugly to watch . . . I haven't had the chance to watch many of his fights, only the ones on YT, But I find him fascinating to watch, he's quick, gets his opponents into situations where they don't feel comfortable, claims center of the ring, and as mentioned in the froch fight aswell, he's a come forward counter puncher, that forces opponents to jab atleast, to try n keep him off, so he's constantly pressing the action, Not to mention he's full of sneaky veteran tricks. You can make cases for not liking Floyd, Pac n some other fighters, but to me, Ward is the most complete boxer 'active' lol today. . . The only thing he lacks I think is that devastating once punch KO, but I don't mind that, I think he makes up for that in all the other aspects I've pointed out. . .
I saw comment on YT which said something about the reason he is inactive is because he tried to leave his promoter early or something, n filed a law suite against him, and as a result his promoter hasn't been finding him fights. I sure do hope this issue gets resolved soon because he's at his peak age now.
