    Rigos defense> Floyd's defense.

    Floyd just gets beat up by C level fighters along the ropes

      If the rules were enforced by honest referees, Ward would have several losses on his record.

      Without his deliberate head butts and clamping his opponents arms, Ward wouldn't be any good.

      Why do you disapprove of Klitschko's clinching, while so strongly support Ward who not only clinches, but uses far dirtier tactic than Wlad with deliberate head butts, clamping his opponents arm, hitting off the break, rabbit punching, hitting while holding, etc?

        Apparently it is, because Marroquin did not drop him...

          floyd can fight like that and win because he's tough. rigondeaux is more prone to being dropped.

            That's right, marroquin only stunned him, Cordoba dropped him. Another c level fighter. Point remains the same.

                I don't disapprove of wlad's clinching, I disapprove of wlad. I don't kill him for holding because I have turned the channel by the time he really gets his grab on.

                As for ward, I don't celebrate anything he does. I just come into your, sllimshandy, battling nelson and the rest of his detractors hate threads to make sure there is some balance and honesty regarding his career and accomplishments.

                The answer is no, rigo's 14 fight career including a win over Donaire does not place him above Ward.

                  He wasn't hurt by Zab Judah, he was beat to the punch while off balance totally different circumstances. Zab Judah is still a better fighter than Cordoba.
