i like watching both for different reasons. ward's a rough fighter and mixes it up more than wlad does. but wlad obviously has the ko power.
Who Do You Enjoy Watching More, Andre Ward Or Wlad?

Wlad.
With Wlad we KNOW he got a glass mandible and despite not being shattered for years.. it's still there .. Wlad could literally GO at any time.. Flat on his back.
With Ward... we SUSPECT he got a glass mandible but no solid proof as of yet.
If you MUST pick between two ultra boring elite fighters.... pick the one with the glass chin.. to watchComment

I respect Ward for his skills, and he seems like a very intelligent and interesting guy, but his style sends me to sleep
Wlad isn't the most exciting fighter in the world but he hits people really, really hard, and getting rocked against Haye and Wach (!) show that there's still some vulnerability there.Comment

i like watching wlad when hes fighting decent oposition, which unfortunately is almost never. not his fault though.
ward is one of my favorite fighters to watch, dude is poetry in motion.Comment

i get something from all their fights even the worst ones.
Ward picked it up lately. I think he's showing another gear in recent fights and he probably has another gear above that depending on how the fight goes. aside from the action...In his fights I get entertainment by how focused he stays 100% of the fight, he goes levels above sticking to the gameplan.
with wlad of course it's HW so all those rules apply...anyone can go out. there are some fights usually against better and/or taller opponents when he gets to move a bit and doesn't hold so much and I can appreciate how athletic he can be for a big man and wonder where all his fluidity went.Comment

I like to watch them both.
Wlad because about 90% of the time the fight doesn't go a full 12.
And Ward, just a little more because unlike Wlad, he doesn't enjoy a size advantage. He isn't blisteringly fast, nor does he possess equalizing power. I've seen tape of him shadow boxing & even then his skills are amazing. Excellent balance & angles, fluidity, smarts, ring generalship. He's just the ultimate text book fighter with a little B-Hop bag of tricks, the sweet science, poetry in motion.Comment
