Comments Thread For: Carl Froch: Ward is Not Exciting, Fights are Quite Boring

[Gay for Boootay]

I love watching him fight, especially when it's against high-calibre fighters. The Kessler and Froch performances were fantastic.

But I bet you wouldn't pay a cent to see him on tv

A lot of people don't like to watch technically gifted fighters and i don't understand why. The sport is called boxing not brawling. It would be boring if everyone had the same come forward and slug it out style. I get as much enjoyment watching a boxer outbox someone for 12 rounds as i do for a slugfest.

Agreed, any two bums can wing away at each other for 4 rounds.

Just when I was giving Froch credit for being gracious in defeat...

[EAAE]

To someone like Froch with his style i can see why he would think Ward is boring, i dont think he was being that disrespectful, just his opinion but i disagree with it, to me Ward is exciting as anyone, his downfall isnt his style its his lack of power, how is it boring to hit and not get hit? isnt that the art of boxing??
3 of my favorite fighters of all time are Tyson, Gatti and Corrales because of their brawling crowd pleasing styles and love to see guys like Darchinyan, Manny and Mayorga fight but these arent the best fighters of all time, they are exciting fighters, of todays generation Mayweather and Ward are 2 of the greatest talents i have seen in a long time in boxing and they are both considered boring for some reason, i think some people are watching too much UFC LOL dont get me wrong i love UFC but this is boxing.

I would, i have and id do it again. i cant help but feel you're a bit biased when you're 'Gay for Boootay' hahahaha just playin, Bute's a good fighter but the same thing will happen to him when he faces Ward.

[EAAE]

To be the man, he as no choice to fight Bute otherwise he is only one of the top. Bute is a must for Ward but i think Bute is too risky for Ward at this point.

The Bute fight will happen for sure, its not like Ward has built a career on ducking opponents (look at his resume) but if he decides to take an easy fight between now and then he has earned that and is the man at 168.

Feather fisted Andre "Huggy Bear" Ward is the cure for insomnia. He only has one stoppage (tomato can Pudwill) in his last 8 fights. He made the shitty six boring.

Slick southpaw knockout artist Lucian Bute (30-0, 24 KOs) is the best super middleweight in the world. He is the savior of the division. I can't wait till he destroys huggy bear Ward.

For having gone through just a big tournament, Ward sure hasn't done much to make any new fans based on his tv ratings, twitter or facebook accounts.

Kessler has over 200k fans on his Facebook fan page.

Ward has less than 15k.

Stats and numbers dont lie.

I Agree with Froch.

Ward is a great guy , wholesome in character etc... but he is NOT EXCITING !

I didn't see the fight and am not interested in watching a boring fight.

I would watch chicken Martinez fight Ward, that would be interesting !!
