    Ward Held, Elbow'd and Shoved His Way To Victory...

    Ok fellas I just got done watching the fight and I see there are more then a few of you who feel the same as I do. I was sitting here watching the fight and during the first 2 rounds we saw a competitive match. Ward was cut by a head butt and the reff started getting on Miranda's case about being cautious about his head. For the rest of the fight although Ward did do some things that impressed me I watched the reff warn Miranda about this that and the third but never once say anything to Ward about holding, pushing Mirada's head down, use of his left elbows in the inside, running at Miranda and basically tackling him and shoving him to the ropes. Among that there was some hitting on the break by both fighter but I never saw a warning to Ward for that but Miranda was warned more then once. There was hitting behind the head by both fighters but I never saw Ward warned once. Ward even hammered Miranda with a shot after the bell and yes you guessed it no warning. Aside that there were a few low blows by Ward.

    What got me even more upset was the Showtime crew was quick to tout Ward and point out every little thing bad about Miranda but they acted like all the formentioned that Ward was doing wasn't even happening. They never mentioned it once. All they did was say how great Ward was fighting what a master piece he was showing us. I saw Ward winning the fight the reff allowed him to fight. I mean the home cooking must have tasted really good my friends. I see some posts on here saying Miranda is finished shot totally not true. The movement defintely had him going but he landed a few good hard right hands. The SLIP that happened with Ward going to the canvas I am not so sure it was a slip but we will never know because Showtime never gave us a replay on it. In all I am pissed with the fight the reff and the cast of showtime for being so biased....Lefty

      He won basically by boxing. Elbows, forearms and all that is part of boxing, it's not like he was kicking and biting. I think he beats Dirrell, Froch, Bute, Andrade and anyone else at 168 except for Kessler, Jones, and Hopkins.

          I could have done with out the elbows and forearms but the guy faced a tough hard puncher in Miranda.

          I thought it was a good test and Ward should not beat himself up for his performance. It was a good fight and Ward showed he has a lot of tools to work with. I dont love him but I don't hate him either. The guy is game and that counts.

            He beats Jones at this point man. He still can improve too. He's young.

                Hopkins would beat Ward, he would beat everyone from 168 to 175
