    "No way in hell" is a bit of a stretch. Monroe managed to win 3 - possibly even 4 rounds before getting knocked down multiple times and ultimately stopped. GGG has a lot of momentum right now, and his punching power is a game-changer, but I'd still favor Ward in that fight, he's the bigger man, more technically sound, and has deceptive punching power.

      He crushed Monroe but the fight was razor thin on my card. Monroe's stock went up hugely.

          It's deceptive because he should've been able to knock out Allen Green and Andy Kolle with everything he hit them with.

            Too bad the great Ward is fighting Paul Smith doe.....lol. Yeah, the guy who is the best thing since slice bread is fighting Paul Smith in his back yard. Ward will need to drop to 160 if he wants that fight because he has no pull anymore.
            That's what happens when you fight once every 3 years.

              You know as well as I do there is always a double standard with Floyd .
              Didn't he say he would drop to 154, the division where Floyd holds a belt? Yeah....scary I know, but lets not toss facts out of the window now.

                  Sadly this fight would depend in large part on the referee.
                  If it is a fair ref and he warns/deducts points for excessive holding then GGG, if it is the usual blind eye ref then id favor Ward to clinch his way to a points victory or get knocked out.

                    The fight was razor thin on your card? S**t you make Adalaide Byrd look like judge of the millennium with comments like that.

                      No he didn't. Case closed.
