The ward fight was boring as **** i had to turn off half way through and i am a Ward fan!
I loved it. Rodriguez came in very reckless and aggressive trying to disrupt Wards flow I'm guessing. But Ward kept his composure figured out and came on strong later on. I think Ward's only option early was to clinch because Rodriguez came in like a mad man and Ward had not figure him out just yet. I think since the point deduction , which was hilarious the fight got even better.
If Rodriguez wasn't such a big guy he would've gotten ko'ed. Ward landed some bombs.
With Rigo in the other hand , while I enjoyed the schooling. After the 6th round it was obvious what was going to happen. Rigo was going to box Donaires socks off until the fight ended.
When a big fight is on , I don't like people to distract me on other ****. Unless it's boxing talk or offering to bring me another beer then don't talk to me. With Rigo vs Donaire it as like "ok I know what's going to happen". In the 10th I was already setting up the domino table the volume on the t.v was down. And salsa was playing loud. I did wake up the next morning to watch it completely and more carefully.
Well both guys are not losing any time soon. There's nobody to really challenge them. GGG?? Maybe for ward. In a year. I don't see anyone challenging Rigo.
Rigo vs. Donaire just by anticipation alone. On one side you had the 2012 Fighter of the Year who had knockout highlights on his resume. On the other you had a 2-time Gold Medalist who was trying to prove a point. I was on the edge of my seat the entire fight because I knew the fight could end at any given moment. Rigo did what he had to do that night and took Nonito to school.
With Ward vs. Rodriguez I pretty much knew from the get go who was going to win easily and I was right. Ward did to Rod what a fighter of his caliber is supposed to do.
Can't deny it... Rigo whooped one of the best p4p fighters in the world... Made him look like he didn't belong in the ring with him, and in the absolute worst way
I mean, this wasn't Ali embarrassing Liston, or Tyson knocking out Holmes...
This was a fighter with less than 10 fights taking a veteran, multiple weight champion, top p4p fighter and making him look like it was his first time lacing up a pair boxing gloves
While Ward was a master class of an over matched opponent everyone knew was gonna happen
Rigo vs Donaire was a beautiful technical display.
Ward Rodriguez was just a one sided mugging. The early rounds sucked, but Ward picked it up later on.
Rigo fight was two world class fighters boxing! Ward was fighting a true hype job and took him to school. Give me high speed chess any day. Rigo vs Donaire
wards a cheating fraud. i don't remember rigo clamping donaire's arms everytime he came close or jumping into him with his shoulder like a football player. oh sorry that was the sweet science right? we all know how scientific football collisions are.
Ward fought a chunky zombie who nobody gave any chance to even if he would have come in top form common. But is not Wards fault Edwin was set on making that fight a suckfest.
