Andre Ward, Class Act

The haters will find something to hate him for anyways.

Yeah, he's quite impressive. He is confident and cocky yet respectful. He is young but a family man who treats his profession like a professional. I've been impressed by what I've seen so far and while I still have questions, I'm pulling for him to do well. Not a bad role model to have.

He's a great guy and I think he's gonna do a lot in his career.

Put Ward's outstanding talent aside for a minute. Besides being a tremendous fighter and super middleweight titleholder, the man is also a class act. I thought it was a wonderful gesture that he came into the ring for his fight against Green on Saturday night with this message stitched into the back of his robe: "Nick Charles, Praying for You." Ward, of course, was sending out his message loud and clear to the beloved Showtime commentator battling cancer. It was a great thing for Ward to do and I know he spoke for many people in the boxing community and fans around the world. http://espn.go.com/sports/boxing/blog/_/name/rafael_dan/id/5318696/tournament-more-super-five-six total class act, for sure. borderline snoozer as a fighter so far.
