    Floyd at his best is jaw dropping amazing with cat like reflexes combined with technical excellence.

    Ward is actually quite overrated....He HAS to beat you with his left hand.
    People don't even mention this which is actually true, it's been like that even before surgery.

      You honestly think that Ward is as talented or skilled as Gamboa or Rigo? Jesus do you really have to be a black American to get credit around here?

      I'm white and european.

      Don't judge me, you don't know who I am, what I have done in my life.

      I guess it's too difficult for you to understand skills and power are 2 different aspects of the game.

      Yes Ward (olympic gold medalist, undefeated as a pro with a tremendous record) is more skilled than Gamboa or Rigo.
      That's a pretty much obvious fact for any person who understands the sport decently.

        They are the 2 best technical boxers of the last 10 years.

        Not particularly exciting but essentially impossible to beat.

        I'd sway towards Ward, but only because Mayweather is not my cup of tea.

          Wow I didn't say you were black...

          No YOU don't understand technique.. Floyd doesn't hurt people because he has bad hands and lands his counters defensively on the end of the punch.

          Ward is a converted southpaw with an underdeveloped back hand. What's Ward's best win ? Kessler?

          Umm.. Rigo has two gold medals and Gamboa has one too.... Gamboa was beaten by Crawford...Do you not think if Ward went to Crusier to fight a fighter of Crawford's ability he would lose?

          Do you actually believe Ward has beaten someone half as good as Donaire?

          Ward P4P is nowhere near as skilled as these guys, you guys really are terrible boxing fans.

            Ward more technical than Kiltschko? Marquez?

            What is this nonsense ? Seriously? This guy still getting hyped for beating the ghost of Chad Dawson?

            Ward is a Bradley ....not a Floyd

              He isn't even on Manny Pacquiao's level he's a good fighter but he is very often overrated watch that fight with that Barrera guy that Cuban gave Ward a lot of problems and was hitting Ward quite a lot and Barrera is up there with Dominic Wade as a fighter who has yet to really make their mark on the division.

                    Kessler is better than Froch, beat him in the first fight and was past his best when he fought both guys...I've literally no interest in an opinion on Carl Froch by someone with a profile picture of him.

                    Especially one that can't bother to write more than two words.
