    Lol youre so daft "ward is the next broner"
    Ward is older and has already proved himself regardless of what happens to him agaonst kovalev,maidana was never as highly rated as kovalev is now

    Broners problem was that he put on too much weight inbetween fights and never naturally grew into 147 like serious fighters do

    Ward is a real champion who wasnt handed belts,he took his belt of froch and kessler,he didnt get handed a vacant belt or fight some bum for it

        It's always been easy to say ward's miles better than broner. Seems like you got caught sipping the Broner Kool-Aid. he's the same fighter he's been, only now he fights guys closer to his size. His low punch output didn't really matter when vs smaller guys but now? he gets bullied and outworked. he's talented but undisciplined.

          no, again you and others are missing the point. Ward has not proved himself against people of the same size, thats what im trying to get at. ONly now is he fighting someone good who isnt smaller than him

Started off his NSB career pretty innocuously and is now doubling down. They grow up so fast...
            im not a troll mate, am a passionate boxing fan. Thing is i had everyone labelling me a troll/ggg ****rider cause i said brook would give ggg problems and it would be surprisingly competitive. Then it came true. Dont be surprised if im correct on ward/kovalev too

              Darnell Boone may have something to say about that.

                You've proven time and again that you don't know near as much as you think you do, especially in the straight awful advice I've seen you give in the training section. Do more reading and less typing. You've a lot to learn and yes, you do come across as a complete ggg shill.

                "Surprisingly competitive"?? In 2 of the rounds maybe. Getting annihilated before the fight is even half way through is not competitive. Brook let it all hang out and still was only able to bother him twice. I wouldn't tear into you if you weren't trying to give yourself so much credit for utter bs.

                  I honestly can't work out if you're a very good troll or a Shutter Island patient with wifi

                    ward wasnt draining himself to make 168 when he fought abraham froch dawson.. youre reaching hard as hell this thread is dumb.. he legitimately earned pfp #1.. broner made the top 10 only by ring cause he was promoted by oscar

                    Plus broner still isnt a 147, he just gets fat but he belongs at 140

                      lol nah most my comments in training section ones are joke ones, although i do know about nutrition, injury management and conditioning and am qualified to discuss this. Im not a fighter myself and unlike most people on here, i dont pretend to be. But ive been a fan many years, know what im on about.
