I think Ward is a KO waiting to happen myself.

    If Ward gets by Dirrell, who I think is really a horrible style matchup for him, the sky is the limit. That will be his true test because Dirrell has some serious advantages over Ward that it will take someone truly elite to get passed. I can't wait for that bout.

And Ward couldn't afford to get reckless swinging wide left hooks like he did. If you notice Green rocked him really bad a couple times in the fight and Ward tried to act like it didn't affect him, but it did. Wait until he gets in with someone who is well rounded with skills, power, and the heart to go with it and he'll be in trouble. I honestly wonder if he can even beat Bute, and people know I'm not a Bute fan either.

        People who say things like Ward is a future P4P star really do overlook the flaws that he has. He's still wide open and his left hook is garbage, which in turn makes him vulnerable against someone who has a better one which Green actually had. It's just that he's an uncoordinated dolt who couldn't capitalize and he let Ward clinch him right after he was hurt.
        Again, what rounds did he get rocked really bad? Also, you act as if Ward isn't skilled, well rounded, or has heart. And what young fighter DOESN'T have flaws, lets be real here. Ward is a talent and an extremely focused fighter that I suspect to be around for a while and will be hard to beat.

          Agreed i think Dirrell is going to win! he just needs to use the mayweather type discipline and keep ward from coming inside with his jab and he wins everytime. He will fight the boring fight and beat Ward. I believe he will do this and win

              Ward isn't just an inside fighter. Dude can box from the outside. His inside game has been great for his overall game though.

                its not great....


                his inside game is good...

                floyd mayweather's inside game is great

                calling ward's inside game great is disrespectful to mayweather...

                im a big ward fan and he is talented but he still needs time to develop. regardless, he is young and one of the best.

                  Whenever Green landed flush it hurt him. I don't remember what rounds, but it happened. I didn't say Ward lacked heart. I'm just saying there are people on here who worship him as the next coming of Jesus Christ and I'm pointing out why I think he's beatable when I compare him to certain guys. That's all. I'm not in any way saying he sucks.

                    I still dont think Ward can beat Dirrell in a jabbing match, if Direll plays jab and move, he will win, Dirells defense is the best in the match and his reach will make it damn hard for ward , if he beats Dirrell convincing i might start believing the sugar ray leonard comparisons that them showtime commentators mentioning

                      Yeah, I don't like Dirrell and I think he'll cause a lot of problems for Ward as well.
