Andre Ward's place as one of the most uninteresting.... BOOORING fighters we've ever witnessed, It's equally as bad as Lomachenko's last fight If not worse.
You want to criticize Lomachenko for fighting amateurish for not taking his chances to try and finish his opponent?
Well this guy just absolutely stinks the house out regardless of who he fights, you'd have to be a fanboy of all American fighters or perhaps you like torturing yourself with terrible fights.
I'm sure all the 'pugilist' will be uniting together to defend his terrible display today by saying the usual cliche things of it being art/science but the simple fact is this guy won't ever be a big draw fighting like that.
Bare in mind most of the people who like Crawford criticize guys like Wladimir Klitschko for being boring.
:pat:
Dude is going to get hammered when he messes up his distance control, he has a really good jab but once inside that and he pulls back he is wide open.
It will look great though until it doesn't work.
Similar to Khan, I like his skills but it annoys me that something so simplistic hasn't been fixed and people think he can tangle with Pacquiao :nonono:
Taken Wards place as a very technically gifted huggy bear that gets absolutely blown by HBO? If that's the question the answer is pretty obvious. He seems like a good guy, just like Ward, but that fight was balls. He's not the most exciting guy in the world but he won't be an easy night for anyone.
Crawford doesn't headbutt
Crawford doesn't elbow
Crawford doesn't hit while holding
Crawford doesn't hide and waste his career fighting at one weight
Crawford doesn't bytch up at the idea of going overseas to fight for a title
Crawford doesn't draw less than 10,000 fans in his home town
Andre Ward is the most boring fighter I've ever seen.
Hes skilled but I will wait until I see him fight good operators his own size before I start singing his praises.
Says a lot when you are hydrating 6lbs more than a guy who is quite a unit at the weight himself.
Ah okay. It won't be long until Crawford is in most lists, I think he'll probably win fighter of the year 2014.
Pacquiao will most likely get it, deserved or not.
His interviews are great, Max cut him off after 10 seconds. I mean Max could have just got on his knees and given him fellatio but the HBO crew were doing it all night.
As much **** that Abril gets that ****er is just as dominant and equal boring without the crowd of course.
Abril rarely gets aggressive like Crawford and he doesn't have same amount of power either. I also find TC to be more vulnerable, which adds to his overall entertainment value.
As for the OP, I'd rather watch Crawford than Ward tbh.
Ah okay. It won't be long until Crawford is in most lists, I think he'll probably win fighter of the year 2014.
It's not okay though. Kovalev should not be on the list at all. Chocalito should be lower than number 2. Crawford should had been on the list 6 months ago.

Boxingscene.com have Kovalev at number 8 right now @Weebler.
That's ****ing bull**** as they avoided ever showing Bernard Hopkins even close to that respect. Then knock Ward off and place Chocalito in his place.. lol.

Crawford put on a great performance, I was entertained. Needs to not square up as much, that right there worries me.

Crawford should be on the P4P list..
His skill was already telling, but what he accomplished this year confirms it. He is over the likes of such fighter s like GGG and Kovalev. It's really ****ing annoying seeing lesser fighters with less accomplishment and skill being able to fight lesser competition and get placed on the list SO EASILY. It's inaccurate and irresponsible.
Those two aren't on the PFP list, at least not Ring's anyway.

I'd say Gamboa is a great fighter but we can't deny he had a year of inactivity, that and TC clearly dwarfed him.
Meh, I play it fair I'd say with someones style, Terence was clearly holding back tonight and that is what annoyed me about his performance.
Its just like how Lomachenko was holding back, toying around with his opponent, I don't respect it.
Commentary seem to be quick to jump on other fighters for it but not as such with some others.
Most these guys like Broner if they had anywhere near the same talent as Terence they'd be lighting **** up right now, it's annoying if anything because you really think people who aren't die hard boxing fans are going to get behind that style?
In short... I'd rather see a ****y POS like Broner with that talent than Terence because he would not hold back one bit with it.
yeah, loma did it vs russell jr too, that pissed me off. but he has only 4 fights, maybe he wants the rounds, to gather experience.
