Ward much like Yuri Foreman, has a permanent Leg issue. Remember how Foreman's leg went out against Cotto?
A few fights back, Ward would wear the same protective knee pad as Foreman did. Nobody talks about this, but I believe this is the reason he more than often fights on the inside, clinching and holding.
He can't fight on the outside for long due to his leg. And that's supposed to be his strong side, being a talented fighter from the outside. Hopkins can take him from what I'm seeing.
