Andre Ward's hand broken in two places. New pics.

I really don't like Ward, there is something about him that turns me off about him, but there is no way to deny that he is a world class fighter and him fighting not at 100% reflects that.

Even with his hands at 100% he doesn't have K.O power. This is boxing, pretty much every legit boxer in the history of the sport has hand problems. The human hand wasn't meant to be balled up in a fist and used a club.

froch sucks! :lol1:

It's a vertical fracture that runs alongside the bone (boxer's fracture). Instead of breaking the bone in half, it kind of splits in the middle.

He's gonna end up in a Mayweather-like situation where his hands will end up becoming brittle and therefore more susceptible to breaking it

Ward's a tough guy. I'm a big fan.

Won't this fracture make his bones tougher when it heals? Or does it not apply in this case?

Tough as nails.

I had the boxer fracture and never went to the hospital. My hand looks all fuked up now because of it. It's very painful and will bother you for the rest of your life. He should be ok because he's getting top of the line treatment. Good stuff cuauht. I read on another site (possibly badlefthook) that Ward's hands would require treatment in the same way as Mayweathers if he is to avoid problems.

From his twitter: http://twitpic.com/show/iphone/7wy7vr http://twitpic.com/show/iphone/7wy8oj http://twitpic.com/show/iphone/7wy8xv So he fought Froch with a broken hand. Dude scares me. The injury is known as a 'boxers fracture'. Ward risks permanent handproblems unfortunately. I had the boxer fracture and never went to the hospital. My hand looks all fuked up now because of it.

panda's always wondered about what ward would do to his opponents if he had power. not very many boxers continue their knock out streak with this level of opposition. dawson, froch, williams, khan, taylor and many more would serve as prime examples

It isn't broken if it is fractured. I have had fractures and they do hurt, but not that much. In fact I messed up my wrist in a bike crash 2 weeks and 5 day. It has healed now but hurts a little if pressured. Now a break is different. He would be crying. a fractured bone is the same as a broken bone. you probably had a sprain.

according to an interview last night he injured it in one of his final sparring sessions hitting a guy high on the head i think he was ten days from the fight they got an x ray and it didnt show any breaks then in the 6th round he landed a hook and said it was pretty much done from there obviously he didnt stop throwing the thing (and probably didnt break both bones in one shot, but who knows) the kid is a monster now we know why he uses those big fluffy pillow gloves he uses (which clearly have something to do with his lack of finishes as well) lets hope he heals well and gets a soft touch in oak city there's no reason to into any situation where an injured hand will lead him to a setback or a loss (the way rushing to a bute fight might)

lol @ David Haye's toe :lol1::lol1:

lol @ David Haye's toe

Ward's alot tougher than he looks. No question that he is a wariror.

Ward's alot tougher than he looks.

Still haven't seen a picture of of Ward's' face along with the injured hand. He's faking. :banana:

Fair play..
