    Exactly man. People think of Ward as a Floyd type fighter that can probably dance around the bigger guys and pop the jab, but he really doesn't do that. He's a very physical guy, and I don't know if he could be that physical at 175.

      Ward stops Stevenson by 10. Stevenson's D isn't that great and he still only has the big left hand. I'd pick a few light heavyweights like Kovalev and Pascal to beat him too

        Same was said about hopkins when he was at mw,,, he was a very physical mw, but some thought that a tarver and the other lightheavys would be to big, but hopkins has done pretty well for himself there,, but like you said, ward doesnt move and jab like a floyd or hopkins,, he is a really good fighter but i think the one thing missing from his arsenal is good movement and being able to pot shot on the move

          Ward beats Adonis, IMO. Only guy who has a chance at beating Ward at 168-175 is Kovalev, I think Kovalev is the guy who would beat Ward, Not Stevenson.
