    Rigo for sure. Not a big fan of the wrestling Ward does.

      In my opinion, both are really boring, but sometimes Rigo turns his fights in masterclasses, beautiful boxing, see the Donaire fight for example.

        It's a tough call. Rigo has had more fights where he just didn't even bother to show up than Ward has. But Rigo breaks your face when he decides to actually fight. Plus, he is chinny. He always gets up, but he can be dropped easier than Ward. Ward was exciting against a drained to death Bad Chad, but basically not in any other fight I can think of. Ward also fights in a very negative style. Kinda like Hopkins. Do whatever it takes to win, but never take a chance and just slow the action to a grinding, fouling halt. So if I had to pick I guess Rigo is more entertaining based mostly on who is more exciting on their best night.

Rigo is a much better puncher for his weight class than Ward and gets KO wins more often. Rigo gets body punch KOs. Ward is a converted southpaw with a great left and an average right with no real power. Rigo has a great left and a great right.
            Rigo just doesn't leave no hope -- that's why I sometimes fall to sleep while watching him...

              Sounds great Hermano. I'm headed to Georgia, and DC next year. I'm gonna get my fill of real BBQ! Not this Japanese stuff.
              I hear that. I've been watching my weight recently so Ive had to cut out a lot of food I love in favor of tuna and chicken. Every other week or so I do eat some "real" food, lol. DC is only about 2 hours north of here

                    Of course I did... Rigo delivers big shows only when his opponent fights back... (but usually his opponents feel hopeless...)

                      I might find Ward more entertaining if he gets knocked out by Kovalev.
