I personally don't find Bradley nor Ward boring.
And, KO% doesn't really equate to exciting or boring. Juan Diaz was not boring but was feather fisted.Comment

The difference is that Wlad has every physical advantage in nearly every fight he has fought. If Ward were fighting jr middleweights and not destroying them nearly every time out than he would be just as culpable. As it is (and I don't find him extremely exciting) though, he uses a lot more variety of punches and combo's instead of just the jab and occasional right hand.Andre Ward : rounds boxed 151 KO% 54.17
Wlad: rounds boxed 285 KO% 83.05
What do you think Ward's KO % will be when he has almost 300 rounds boxed? 30%? Less?
People call Wlad boring but atleast he gets the Knockouts more often than not, he uses his skills to outbox his opponents before putting them away. He actually tries to finish fighters off or make them quit.
Who else gets screamed at every round by their trainer to knock someone out while they have been winning every single round? Only Emanuel screams for a KO despite Wlad winning every single round.
All the American guys are like "you doing great job keep doing what you doing!" which means fight is going to decision.
When was last time you heard a trainer tell his fighter that "yes you are winning every round but you gotta KO this guy right now"?
And Steward is always screaming at Wlad because like the rest of us he knows Wlad has the potential to ruin other fighters in devastating fashion but instead chooses to play it safe.Comment

Maybe, maybe not. Who knows....KO% means nothing anyways.Comment

that's true. it's very hard to knock out elite level fighters unless you have real power. a higher ko percentage can also mean you've been matched very soft. calzaghe started his career 21-0 with 20 knockouts and most of those were lol stoppages. froch does have more power than ward though as he's stopped taylor and magee while wards best stoppage is shelby pudwill.Comment

I don't believe that that is a given. Styles dictate knock outs. Frock will put pressure on a force a ko, where Ward will stay outside and point you to death while waiting for the ko to come instead of attacking and going after it. Jmo.Comment
