Floyd is a very small Welterweight with no physical advantages. He is not a power puncher and obviously have very little KO Power.
Ward is a average sized SMW with very little physical advantages... He is even less of a puncher than Floyd...
They fight the way they do to best use the assets given to them.
A much better comparison will be if
6'2 Tommy Hearns fought Roberto Duran the way Wladimir did Povetkin. Hearns is a massive Welter with brutal KO Power.. he held ALL the physical advantages and he FOUGHT just like he did.
If Wladimir was a 6'1 Heavyweight with Chris Byrd power.. I don't think anyone will even complain once about the way he fight.
I don't understand how people fail to realize it's not even remotely close to the same thing because Floyd/Ward don't have anywhere near the advantages Wlad does.
