Why does every Ward opponent say he's a very dirty fighter?

He is a dirty fighter and a clinching, mauling, illegal holding and hitting fighter. Most of his fights were in the Oakland area where the refs let him get away with it. The guys who fight him consistently say he is dirty fighter because it's true.

This. AW was dirty, but no dirtier than Maidana No fighter says Maidana was dirty. Except Floyd "the puss1 one" Mayweather. Maidana is not dirty. Floyd hugged him 200 times and he went crazy because the ref wasn't doing nothing. Floyd was dirty.

Question for you Maxi-you and many other posters always suggest the way you beat elite boxers like Floyd and Ward is to make the fight a dirty brawl by employing certain tactics. WTF bitch stop making up stuff. I never said something like that.

Proof is in the fights. Anyone can look at the footage to see Ward was as dirty as they come. There are even YouTube compilation videos of this guys dirtiest moments...elbows, headbutts, low-blows, pushing, etc. Kessler suffered four cuts to his face and head from Ward's forehead and elbows. Hopkins was just about as bad.

I like Ward but against Kov those shots were low. Just sayin.

Ward was dirty, no question. He pushed the boundaries of the rules...but that's the difference between pro and amateur. He found a way to win with know how and grit over physical talent a lot of times. He probably works on stuff in the gym that most fighters don't really think about that much.

Froch. Kessler. Barrera. Kovalev. And many others. They all say Ward is a terrible cheat. Are they racist? Are they anti-American? Or are they right? What's the answer? Even Ward himself says he "won" the first Kovalev fight by getting "dirty". Why do "some" people have him as a hero despite of this? Just upset they lost. Question for you Maxi-you and many other posters always suggest the way you beat elite boxers like Floyd and Ward is to make the fight a dirty brawl by employing certain tactics. Why do you endorse this type of strategy to defeat elite boxers but get upset when elite boxers use said strategy to win?

Pride and ego, mostly. Ward did nothing against Froch or Barrera that was dirty. He plain outboxed them. I don't blame Kessler or Kovalev for being pissed, but it's still an ego thing. Ward absolutely has pushed the limits in his fights, but people act like he does it every fight. He doesn't. He was bad in the Kessler fight. He and Bika fought incredibly dirty. He was dirty against Kovalev. Otherwise he fights within the rules.

Dirty fir them but smart as to not crossing the line with fouls but just enough to get under his opponents skin . Ward also is a very strong fighter which throws alot of them off gaurd . Do I think he is the most exciting fighter to watch , hell no !!! Doesn't mean his not a skilled fighter in the last 20 years , love him or hate him he fought alot great fighters and won .

False and I won't even argue this with you. Every time Kovalev tried to prevent Ward from doing his dirty thing you all acted like Kovalev initiated the cheat. Ward himself said I won by getting dirty and grimmy. No point in denying his own words. I don't care what Ward said, it's all on video, seen both fights multiple times.

Kovalev was the dirtier fighter in both fights, I get tired of having to mention this but he was and it's not even debatable. False and I won't even argue this with you.

No point in denying his own words. What about Barrera doe? is he also salty?

Kovalev was the dirtier fighter in both fights, I get tired of having to mention this but he was and it's not even debatable. Kovalev is just bitching because he has bitch-like tendencies, Froch is bitter and Kessler is within his right I'll admit.
