Was anyone else overcome with joy watching Green beaten to a pulp?

    At least when Paulie talks he comes to fight.

    When Floyd talks he dominates.

    When Green talks he doesnt even show up. Bum.
    I actually felt pity for the guy.I havent watched him fighting a lot but watching him getting beaten wasnt really entertaining.His mom was in the crowd and I wonder how she felt.If I had been following the press conference maybe I would have enjoyed it.I just have a feeling that Green is overmatched in this competition and is in hard way of making a living.

      I wasnt happy, more dissapointed that Green fought so badly. There's nothing worse than a guy who talks loads of **** and then gets in there and doesnt even try to win. I dont think Green can beat Ward under any circumstances but it was like he was just there for a payday. Pretty dissapointing they put him in the tournament instead of guys like Bute, Andrade or Bika. All of these guys have better resume's than Green and they all come to fight and to win.

        I wasn't overcome with joy but I did chuckle, thats what green gets for talking **** without having any skill to back it up.

          I was a little sad. Turns out Green is just more bark than bite. I figured he'd lose but not without a fight. Eh. But then I was overcome with joy watching Ward show off his talent.

            I think he was badly embarrassed. But as a professional, he should of ****** it up and accepted being defeated.

              Hopefully hes learned his lesson.

              Kessler stops him.

                he should have done the honorable thing and jumped out of the ring.

                    I was pretty happy to watch the fight. I had the opportunity to check out Ward-Kessler last year in Oakland to see SOG live. If you like technical boxing, you'd enjoy this fight. Ward really shows his ametuer experience by staying tight, shooting short quick punches, and minimizing his opportunity to get hit.

                    What was so impressive in this fight was that Ward took the fight to Green, which was very unexpected. He beat him up on the inside when Ward is really known for being a boxer that moves around. But like he said before the Kessler fight, he is making that transition from boxer to fighter.

                    Bottom line, I thought the fight was great, if you have followed Ward's career, you'd realize he has come a long way. Its no surprise that a man like Froch with very little technical ability could not appreciate Ward-Green. He has a point about action, but I felt that this fight was truly one a boxing fan would appreciate.

                      I agree. Fascinating, cultured performance from Ward.
