          who do you consider elite in the game today?

            There was no question at one point that Ward was an elite boxer, maybe the best in the sport. That was quite some time ago, though. Right now I'd put him just below elite until we see what happens against Kovalev.

              A+ no doubt, and he is going to dominate Kovalev....

                He's not an elite fighter I think he is a B or B- fighter you have to take into consideration how much fouling he utilizes in his fights these are not real technical boxing skills also he robbed his way to a gold medal so yes a B seems fair.

                I think we need our referees to enforce the rules a little bit more because in every big fight Ward has ever had he has cheated in them to win it this is not acceptable behaviour, absolutely not an elite fighter.

                  The winner of Ward-Kov will prove who is elite. I think this fight will be the determining factor. Ward certainly was, but he needs to find his A game after being off so long.

                    Guess I should have read this before I posted. Pretty much what I said to.
