    Golovkin punches and just stands there like he's posing for the cover of ugly boxer magazine

    LOL

    You gotta be quick to catch Ward.

    Any slow motion mummy can catch GGG.

      He really does win fights via headbutts, lowblows & elbows.

      He moves well, one of the best jabs in the sport but outside of that hes just a spoiler. Its quite sad because he can dictate distance well with his jab and footwork.

      All I seen when watching him fight Bika (was so good seeing him out-Ward, Ward) & Abraham (before I fell asleep was)
      Jab, slip, headbutt, clinch.
      Parry, jab, clinch.
      Clinch, elbow
      Clich, forearm to throat, elbow

      Kovalev knocks him spark out & on topic I don't think Ward beats GGG anymore, not from watching him just.
      I really aren't sure he'd beat a DeGale or Andre Dirrell. He just don't impress me he just spoils and knocks the fight out of opposition with illegal tactics.

      Hes like a big Carlos Molina. Hideous style! Seems a nice guy but I am not sure how anyone can be a fan of his style.

      I think hes overrated (good, effective as hell if hes allowed to fight like an MMA fighter but not elite or close to) and fought flattering opposition, he'll inevitably lose when he fights someone who isn't robotic, slow as hell on their feet and doesn't fight at his pace but I can assume people will say inactivity ruined him. Truth is he isn't all that.
      Elite fighters don't give 5 rounds up to Bika and get outboxed by Arthur Abrahams of the world until he gassed, that is reality.
      You should probably go and watch Ward-Dawson before ragging on the guy. On top of that, you add that he basically fought his first 8 years as a pro with one arm, and I'd hold off on such a critique.

        Floyd said he had the flu against Cotto and had a shi.tty camp.

        You believe that?

          Na, i'd give props where it's due. You'd find a new opponent who Ward has to fight in order to get recognition.

              If Froch can catch him GGG can (and will) lay him out.

                Lol recognition? The guy is ranked in the top 3 p4p by ring despite doing F all for over a year, if anything he gets too much recognition.

                  If he says so why not? If it was a common thing done when he had an off performance you could argue he's just making excuses but things happen.

                    Comparing resumes comfirms that Ward has taken more chances.

                    GGG fans want Ward to move up but not their guy

                    Everybody has to take risks and challenge themselves but precious little GG.

                      I'm not talking about what magazines or journalists think about him. I am talking about you as an individual. He beats GGG and you still wouldn't give him any props.
