I could understand not being a fan of his style but to say he sucks is too much. I dont see anyone in his weight class that would beat him clearly right now and even if Froch does win i think it will be a very tough fight.
I cant believe Andre Ward has a fanbase

Well spoken? Perhaps if you are a high school drop out and really hate the English language.The guy is a technical, hard working, well spoken, mentally tough, quality fighter.
He breaks guys down systematically with a beautiful jab and gameplans that are ever adjusting. Give the guy props.
Ward has a mental edge to him that some people can't see cause they just see a guy who doesn't excite them.
Anyone who doesn't talk **** or brawl will always garner a legion of haters.
Go check out his interview with Ring magazine. There's so much incoherent babble it's dumbfounding. The man can't even say a simple word like 'asks'. It comes out as 'axed'.
But what can you expect from a man who steals lines from Floyd Mayweather, himself barely literate.
Fact is, Americans just want another champion to feel good about themselves. If this same dude came from England or another place, it would be 'he's boring, he's dirty, he's dumb'. Just like how the Americans ripped Lennox for years and years.Comment

That's crazy, the dude is a genius. He exposed Kessler and Arthur Abraham, and his interview was hilarious saying he could've improved his performance by throwing more bolos and doing more shuffles. The dude keeps his chin down, fights as well southpaw as he does orthodox, has great movement, and while he's not afraid to clinch and make it an ugly fight, this guy will last for years to come if he keeps going on this way and may be the next BHop. No chance my man is getting 'exposed', the only one who stands a good chance against Ward at this point is Bute, and personally I feel he keeps his hand down too low and his reflexes are too slow for that style and Ward will probably take his belt as well.Comment
