      if you're not enough of a boxing fan to appreciate Wards style then maybe the WWE or the MMA is more your thing

        Edison Miranda, Allan Green.

        THOSE ARE TWO FIGHTS WHERE HE SHOULD HAVE WON BY KO.

        Miranda was KTFO early by Bute, and Green sucks, got KO'd by Johnson and never did anything in his career to begin with.

        Ward really should have scored a KO VS Miranda or Green but he couldnt do it.
        This ^^^^^^^^

            I was very entertained by last nights fight, and it seemed to me that Ward had enough power to consistently knock iron chinned Froch back. Ward is a complete fighter good on the outside and the inside, excellent defense etc.

              Man, if a fighter is that good, there shouldn't really be a need for "dirty boxing".

              I mean, Ward has more than enough(maybe not) skills at his disposable, that there shouldn't be a need for "dirty boxing" to win fights. F**kin' JCC was a beast on the inside, he didn't resort to hitting and holding.

              I just can't stand watching "dirty boxing". It's a cheap strategy and boring to watch.

              Give me Holyfield, Chavez Sr all day.

                  Ward's technique broke down toward the end of the fight.

                    dude wins 88% of the rounds in his fights during that Tournament...OF COURSE THAT IS GOING TO BE BORING TO WATCH

                    he is just far more skilled then anybody in his DIVISION so yeah that makes for a boring fight because he dominates them all, I would be bored to when one guy is doing what ever he wants and his opponent spends most of the fight SWINGING AT AIR lol

                    The Boring Label is something fans use when a fighters is very good but they just don't want to give that fighter his props, so after he DOMINATES his FIGHTS they jump on Forums and Scream "BORING" lol

                    It takes two people to put on an entertaining fight, Ward stayed right in front of Froch most of the fight but Froch being SO SLOW he could not take advantage of that while Ward was just countering everything he did

                      What the hell were you watching. I didn't see Ward being stunned one time in the fight and he took good punch. Froch landed a straight AFTER the bell ( something that the haters said Ward would do ) and Ward took it like nothing.

                      I think that people who think Ward is boring have never fight in a ring. To see a guy doing whatever he wants against Kessler or Froch is something amazing. He can fight from the outside, from the inside, has a great right hand, a great jab, a great left hook, great boxing intelligence, great footwork.

                      Seriously seeing a Ward fight is a beautiful thing to do, just like watching Floyd fight, but some people cant see all the subtility of the sport so as soon as they don't see blood and ko they are bored.
