A final assessment of Ward...

[Guest]

... in all honesty, the guy's a lazy-eyed God botherer who's about as interesting to watch as a bag of sugar.

He's a human Mogadon tablet who makes Rigondeaux look like prime Tyson.

Sure, his fans will say that it's all about the "skills", and I can appreciate pure boxing... but any win with this guy is tainted by the constant bending of the rules. If the sloppy eyed ****'s not constantly grappling (because pinning your opponent's arms every other second is "P4P skills"), he's letting off cheap shots, after the bell digs and nut shots. And that's when the daft ****'s not landing a flush headbutt. Every time the daft fucker gets a win, it feels like he cheated. He IS skilful, athletic and quick, no doubt... but he's also a right fouling little wanker.

I'm not saying he's a boring ****, but even his own mother watches his fights and says "Lawd, in the name of Jesus, there must be something more interesting on one of the other channels - where's the remote?"

Couldn't agree with you more. Don't see what all the fuss is about, a very hum drum fighter who literally bends over to avoid being hit. Yeah, I guess you can call that skill.

It is infuriating. If everyone c*ck shotted, head butted and clinched to get a win then we wouldn't have a sport, not one that's televised anyways. They should just legalise c*ckshotting, the P4P guy would be Canelo because nobody is denting that industrial piping

Relevance to thread..........?

Not sure how a sanctioning body's suspect ranking of a fighter bears any relevance to how much Ward fouls and bores?

genius floyd fans are always like that you talking about the nose and they will talk about the ears and the relevance is that they both can be found in the head

on topic

what you describe as boring, fans who really know **** about boxing calls it sweet science.

what you may think as hugging was actually clinching./defense

what you may think as running was actually ring generalship

what you may think about bending too low below the waist line was actually bobbing and weaving.

in other words you DKSAB according to them.

People over the age of six shouldn't say "haters".

There is no way I can watch one of his fights until Kovalev.

He may be the greatest Irish fighter of all time but he also has the unique talent of making two lads trying to punch each into submission intensely dull. One of these days he is going to have an opponent who quits on his stool because he's bored.

it is only because ward is 70% white that he is any good at all
