Who in boxing history do you think could have beat Ward?

[DreamFighter]

Ward is not an ATG.

thats because hes only 28.

people get classed as ATG when nearing the end or finished in careers, unless they do a Muhammed Ali/Tyson and win and fearsomely defend the title almost fresh outta high school.

But Ward has acheived more than any SMW to date at his respective age.

A Prime Roy Jones and B Hop.

[SirTomJones]

Calzaghe would have beaten Ward no doubt.

[pimpgoz]

prime roy jones thats it.
maybe a prime bhop as well->close

[#1Assassin]

Calzaghe
Ottke
Hopkins
Jones
Nunn
Leonard
Hearns
Hagler
Monzon

etc.

ottke? really?

once again your bitterness has gotten the better of you, seems to get worse really. maybe its time you see a pshychologist about your issues. seriously man, ive seen ppl get over dead family members quicker than this.

[Derranged]

... Ottke? Not a chance

Only if he had the same ref and judges from his fight with Reid

[Jcsuper]

Calzaghe
Ottke
Hopkins
Jones
Nunn
Leonard
Hearns
Hagler
Monzon

etc.

Calzaghe : I would bet on Ward on that fight, would be close though
Ottke : what are you smoking
Hopkins : I would bet on a prime Hopkins on that fight, would be an incredible matchup
Jones : i would bet on a prime Jones to win a boring decision
Nunn : How can you know ? give me one fighter that Nunn has beaten that is on Ward's level. Nunn is overrated on this site. I would bet on Ward.
Leonard : Leonard ain't beating Ward at 168, I would bet my car on it
Hearns : I would bet on Ward on that fight, Hearns doesn't have the intelligence in the ring to beat Ward.
Hagler : I would bet on Hagler, incredible matchup
Monzon : Comparing fighter from different eras is dangerous. No one knows what Monzon would do against a modern elite fighter. I think youre just throwing name right here.

etc. : Who the hell are the etceteras ? you have other ideas ? just name them. Don't throw a etc. like there are so much other people.


So from this list I agree that I would bet on a prime Hopkins, Jones, and Hagler to beat Ward. I think that against Hopkins and Hagler it would be really competitive and interesting. I think that a prime Jones would comfortably win a decision, but still I've always thought that Jones wasnt "natural", if you know what I mean... Ward is a great fighter, he's only 27 years old don't forget it.

RJJ (and easy, maybe by (T)KO)
Calzaghe (65:35%)
Hagler (and easy)
SRL (and easy)
Hearns (close)
Eubank (close, maybe a 50:50)


Not sure about Ottke, but it would be a close fight. Even if he was protected, he offered some very good fights.

[CraigM]

id say

- Calzaghe
- Benn
- Eubank
- Hopkins
- Robinson
- Roy Jones Junior
