Did Ward Look Great or Terrible?

[Crazylegs77]

He looked sharp early and mid rounds. Up and down jab, good timing on his left hook, was very sound defensively.

He was never in any trouble in the championship rounds, but I thought he slipped some.

He will need to bring a complete fight to beat Kovalev.

Yeah I wasnt sure if it was due to Barerras late efforts or Ward got a bit tired.

If you are black he looked great, if you are white he looked terrible.

What if you are Mexican? Ha

Excellent assessment for a guy with Ward's picture on his posts and I mean that with no sarcasm, really. Nothing worse than a poster with the fighter's picture up and non-stop worshipping him, but your assessment is nice and even. Green to you, sir.

flip a coin

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

terrible the people I watched it live with were all he's amazing and great btu I said he look heavy and not light on his toes at all look like he really cant do what he wants to do and they said no no no blah blah blah I dont know **** about boxing and fast forward to post figth interview exactly what he said lol.......

dude is struggling cause the power is different, that is the only reason.

A light skinned, more Canelo kind of Mexican, or more of a Morales kind of Mexican?

He looked good, but the problem is, to beat Kovalev you can't just fight a good fight, you have to be disciplined and focused for 12 rounds. Ward is obviously capable of it, but he's never fought anybody as good or similar style wise to what Kovalev brings to the table while Krusher has.

Overall good performance, but I thought he gassed a little in the championship rounds, but it might have been just me.

It's not any fun to be in the room with worshippers along with the constant bias commentary. You really can't get anywhere. Been there, man.

Definitely in the middle. Didn't look terrible. Didn't look great. I think its fine & expected for his first fight at 175.

I would suggest he's probably better served getting another fight in pre-Kov & trying to look great in that fight. Don't really love that he hasn't really looked great in awhile vs a high level opponent before going into arguably if not clearly his biggest fight.

It will definitely be his toughest fight. May be Kovalev's too. Going to be very interesting. Will be refreshing amongst so many mismatches these days.
