    They love holding and not fighting too. Something about the name "Andre" though seems to really make men fight like clinching hugging *******.

    smh...

    i bet you all these knuckleheads big upping ward & dirrell were the same ones trashing hatton as "boring."

    nationalism at its finest.


    lmfao at antonio tarver comparing ward to roy jones. wayyy ****king off. roy jones jr. was fascinating entertainment of athletic display. ward is the complete opposite. nothing entertaining about his fights.

    He won't do any good for the popularity of boxing.

    started watching platoon after round 10.

        Gus Johnson compared him to SRL by the 5th round. Showtime has jumped the shark w/ this tourney imo.

        There no better than HBO and Lamps anymore. I thought Bernstein or Tarver would jump in and check that fool but they rode Ward's **** too.

        **** night, **** "fight".

          Instead of blaming Andre Ward, how about blaming the opponent.

          He didn't do anything about it.

          I've seen plenty of Ward's fights when he was coming up on shobox, didn't see anything like this. Styles make fights and tonight they didn't.

          Green was a walking mummy in there, he didn't use his feet to pull back and prevent a clinch, nothing. Ward took what Green gave him, a dead corpse to beat on up against the ropes.

            ward is very good young champion who is comig along nicely. he has showed the willingness to show he is the best in the ring by fighting in the super 6 and has beaten the guys he was scheduled to fight so far convincingly and looks to have the talent to be a problem for anyone at the weight. stop hating the kid and lets see what happens in this tournament

              I don't find Ward's style very appealing (sorry Gus Johnson), but you have to respect someone who makes every opponent look bad and always dictates the pace of the fight. Vitali Klitschko does the same thing, but with a much different style.

                gus johnson is a play by play guy. not a analyst. that's his strength. that's why the have bernstein.

                he's a great play by play announcer. ***** as a analyst. he's nothing more than a voice. an empty jarhead much like his white counter part & equally talentless joe buck.

                  Who says everyone who supports Ward thinks anything of Dirrell?


                  I, for one, can't stand Dirrell. Don't expect any great accomplishments of him, don't expect him to be a HOF'er.





                  Nobody takes your thoughts and opinions seriously except other crackheads. You jumped the shark bare time ago. Night.

                      That was all Ward. he did it in the Kess fight...Lots of fighters would look bad against Ruiz for his clinching style, its hard to fight against especially when you train for a boxing mathc and get cliched to death. I expect ward to do this the whole tourney since he is stepping up in class from his normal opposition...
