    also ward has always had that punch and jump inside so not to get clogged, just against green, he could stay there cuz green was hardly pushing him off or using his legs


    they both employ tactics that are safety-based...IMO, infighting and smothering is not as bad as blatantly running

        Ward has skills but lacks a defense...His defense is clinching and pawing his lead hands. Dirrell's defense is better but he'll get caught one night backpedaling and pull that head back. When throwing punches, Ward is out position alot more than Dirrell is.

        They'll either come in and actually fight each other or it's going to be boring.

              this has got to be the least exciting fight on paper that can be made in the SS Tourney. No buzz to this fight at all for me

                Ward's defense is pretty solid Toda.

                  I have never seen Ward do what Dirrell did against Curtis Stevens.

                    These two are both on the same elite level. It will be a good fight.
