Why is Andre Ward so overrated?

[SplitSecond]

you know nothing about boxing if you think that Ward is overrant. Ward is much better than Dirrell, Dirrell undoubtedly has better physical condition, but Ward is far more talented and intelligent at top of ring. Besides, you talk that Dirrell won easily rivals that it was difficult to Ward, but Ward win easily against Kessler who beat Froch, who beat Dirrell.

aww ward fans, your so intelligent

Thats not what I meant, its his behaviour in the ring look at the froch fight:

Falling on the floor to avoid exchanges
Clinching to avoid exhanges
Running to avoid exchanges
Bending below the waist to avoid exchanges
Constantly complaining to the ref

Its these kind of things which turn a lot of people off him

Very talented though, I was very impressed with him in the AA fight

since when is bending down avoiding exchanges? next your gonna say floyd mayweather pulling his head back is avoiding exchanges, it's avoiding the punch
ur gonna have to show me when he dropped to his knee's in the middle of an exchange

and lol @ clinching to avoid exchanges, yea, no ****
the plan was to not get hit by the supposedly big power punching froch, but that later proved to be false advertisement

[General Zod]

lol you seen that to Froch was actully out boxing Kessler in the first couple of rounds lol I was in shock

Yeah. I was thinking to myself what is Froch doing, thats not how he fights. I think he would of been much more effective if he kept to his old way of fighting though. Still thought it was a close fight that could of went either way

Dirrell is far more overrated than Ward. Dirrell was dropped by a nobody to and ran from Stevens, a guy who Jesse ***in Brinkley battered.

ward got knocked down by more than a nobody and squeezed out a W against boone and ran from derrick findley, a guy that got battered by andre ***in dirrell and some other bums

You are not allowed to bend below your waist in fights as it exposes the back of your head to your opponent, technically its illegal

next your gonna say floyd mayweather pulling his head back is avoiding exchanges, it's avoiding the punch

Not the same thing, see my quote above

ur gonna have to show me when he dropped to his knee's in the middle of an exchange

He was constantly falling in that fight, its why people here said he must have been wearing Rollerskates in the ring

and lol @ clinching to avoid exchanges, yea, no ****

Clinching as a form of strategy is technically illegal as well. Some refs turn a blind eye to it others have no use for it see the ref in the Berto Collazo fight for example

Ward beats Dirrell imo

u mean like this? @4:44 froch did the samething against kessler, no one rabbit punches except for desperate idiots, kessler got'em with a good uppercut, hilarious

[murmagic]

ward and dirrel are both great fights but styles do make fights not matter what.
green will be a good test for ward imo its gonna be a good fight

[PensionKiller]

and people that say ward is really experienced and proffesional in his approach with different styles for each opponent dont know what they talkin about, just because he fights like an athletic bhop dont mean he is anywhere near as smart

You do realsie even Dirrels team said he wasn't ready for Ward in 2006.

They know Ward is a top fighter for real.

Fighters improve, heck dirrell has within 2 fights.

Ward has taken this **** seriously and will show the world.

Yes, Froch did the same thing and as you can see he was literally looking at the floor at that point

Yeah Froch should of been docked a point for the rabbit punching no doubt about that

Ward is overrated and his style is horrendous and boring, much like Dirrell's.
