Who was the greater boxer: WARD or B-HOP?

They fought similar styles... Who do you think was better? Hopkins had a longer career Ward was simply the better fighter, he is essentially a more athletic version of Hopkins, same grit will skill but better reflexes counters etc

Hopkins was the better boxer. Ward better athletically though In short: he was a better wrestler...

Hopkins was the better boxer. Ward better athletically though

Ward who I like, had too many year's of inactivity, plus he retired quite early. Have to go with Hopkins.

I'll take BHop. More success at more weights and continued defying age. Both great, but Hop was more complete imho

Ward had higher peak, Hopkins better career.

... Ward was a brilliant athlete who emulated B-Hop in many ways... ... B-Hop is a true legend -- he actually started to lose fights only when he was 40 of age... he still fought until he was nearly 52 yo...

bhop could do more, didway more.

Hopkins had a much longer career, but I like ward. Ward made a lot of enemies when he beat Krusher.

Hopkins definitely

Hopkins was limited. Ward had more dimensions and skills while Hopkins relied solely on speed and fundamentals. Ward could fight inside and short, as well as long. He had more combinations and was more consistent, as well as ability to punch on angles and be more creative with shot selection. Hopkins looked for the same shot when it presented itself over and over with great timing. Ward had that as well and then some. Ward also had better footwork. Their records speak for themselves.

Hopkins while Ward was brought more “veteran” tactics into the ring! You’ve never seen a boxer head butt low blow a fighter until you’ve seen Ward, I’ll give it to him he’s creatively cunning and does whatever it takes to win!

They fought similar styles... Who do you think was better? - -U connoisseur of stink?

No doubt Ward was the better boxer but Hopkins could punch and even brawl if need be.

Hopkins... Hands down!

Hopkins...
