Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: Rodriguez Reckless, Makes Many Mistakes

[mathed]

Will you still have this view after the fight? I don't think you will.

You tend to say these kind of things before the fight than completely change your mind after.

You said Floyd would get stopped by Cotto and Canelo and could easily see him lose to Guererro also before those fights but after changed your tune.

You've had a similar trend with Ward.

Coincidentally two fighters you seem to dislike.

Bradley and Martinez on the other hand can't possibly set a foot wrong

It is pretty well known that I don't particularly care for Ward.....I Will never give him the same kind of credit that others do. I think he is overrated and underestimating his opponent.

With so many haters around, Tim and Sergio need some fans to speak up for them. They are perpetual underdogs in the scheme of things and they always seem to prevail....it's hard not to support the underdog. They aren't thought of as "stars", Bradley is thought of as just average, and everyone is just waiting on Sergio to lose....not too much talking about what he has accomplished in his career, only talk about his Margarito loss, how he should have lost to Murray and how he is ducking Golovkin.

As to the Floyd thing....half of what I say about Floyd is just to mess with posters on here. I don't care for his "personality" and antics and the way he avoided the tough fights by retiring and making up excuses. Floyd was one of my favorite boxers when I was younger....he changed, so I had disdain for him....I never lost respect for his ability though. That doesn't mean I'm going to hype him up on here, especially with a million and one nuthuggers already doing plenty of that as it is. I have his career set on my external HD...same as Cotto and what I could get of Martinez and Bradley....I wouldn't waste my time downloading all that and hanging on to it if my true feelings of Floyd are what you presume them to be.

Has anyone actually seen Rodriguez fight? He is wide as hell.

The fight right before Glaskov, he was looking so wild and wide with hooks. Then in his last fight he showed his hooks were so wide that when he threw them, he hit the back of his head. Ward will win easily, Rodriquez is so ridiculously average

Yeah he's not very good at all.

I doubt Ward loses a round.

The breakdown was unnecessary.

Just if you're going to say Wards in for a tough fight before the fight, don't change your mind after the fight like you tend to do with fighters you dislike.

[MRKilla]

lol @ people saying ward is a cherry picker, after a long layoff not like he chose a fighter from a lighter weight class to move up, then not make the weight on purpose like somebody...........

Whatever champ, I don't need to explain a thing to you really

Andre Ward doesn't even try to hide he fact that he cherry picks his opponents. I hope Rodriguez pull off the upset and knocks him out cold lol.

lol Ward is fighting the undefeated and somewhere in the top 10 in the division coming off of a year layoff and an injury is a cherry pick.

Yeah, it's not a cherrypick. This is the No.2 SMW in North America and #7 globally.

Please name some of the opponents Ward has cherry picked?

[Boskop]

Ward got this one.
First 3 rounds could be sort of exciting, but Edwin gets a highly paid boxing lesson tomorrow

[ddangerous]

I wouldn't be surprised if Rodriguez drops Ward at some point. You can't ignore ring rust against a good boxer with power. Ward seems ****y and self-righteous......he better be on point in this weekend.

Rodriguez isn't going to drop Ward. He noticeably loops his shots, and one of Ward's best weapons is his shot placement and precision in return fire.

I'm not clamoring for a Ward KO because of the surgery, but that doesn't change the fact that I foresee Edwin looking really beat-up in the post-fight interview.
