    You need power to be "Complete". Ward is just another slickster among fighters. He's good, but very boring and he doesn't have the ability to knock out A or even B level fighters. Very incomplete

      I think tim bradley is a better all around fighter... he even uses his head better than ward does
      Froch did do it better. He had a much better style for that fight than Ward.
      I also agree about Bradley, that kid might actually be the most complete all around fighter in boxing.
      Be real though, guys. Ward can fight dirty when he wants to, but he is also a brilliant boxing technician when he wants to be. He can win any way he has to, hence him being undefeated with one of the best resumes in the sport.

        He's not as rough on the inside as Ward, but he's at least close as far as ability to fight inside. And his outside ability is better than Ward's.

        I'd say Ward is close. Maybe I'm overrating him, but I would have no problem with someone saying Ward is a more complete fighter than Floyd. Not better, but more complete.

          Bradley and him are tied in that regard, of being complete. Definitely not the most complete though, that goes to Floyd.

              Mayweather would be the most complete, apart from him you have to say Ward is up there.

                  You're kidding, right? And before you say something about bias, these two guys are my top two favorite fighters in the game right now.

                  Hate to be obvious, but it's Floyd. Ward is up there though, for sure.

                    I'm not saying he's the best or that he is unbeatable, but is there a more complete fighter in boxing?

                    If so, who?
                    Have you ever heard of Floyd Mayweather?

                      Think that may be a touchy subject. See: Mayweather vs. Hatton.
