    Spare me your childish insults.
    Fair enough. I apologize good sir

          His style doesnt entertain and he looks rubbish.

          *** andre ward
          I don't think anyone is selling. Andre Ward is a first ballot HOF'er, one of the top two super-middleweights of all time and is an olympic gold medalist, and won it in a weight division above his natural weight so his teammate could also compete.

          You don't have to like his style, people will respect that, but everything else...YDKSAB.

            I've always found him diva-ish. Even back in the super-6.
            I must admit i've never found him to be humble and such, as he's often described. I'd say he can come across bitter, as can Hunter.
            But, i also don't think he acts a dick or anything like that. He just gets on with the job like many others i'd say.

            I'm not a fan, but i don't dislike him.
            He's a top quality fighter though, and his mental strength is admirable.

              Ward can improve his legacy by aiming and fighting for the Undisputed title.
              One fight, one supreme King of the division.
              Lets wait & see if June 17th winner Ducks Adonis Stevenson?

                He portrays himself as being a christian(like Mayweather) and then acts like an arrogant a$$hole(like Mayweather).

I know a lot thought Ward lost but whether you did or not it was an extremely close fight that really either side only won by 1 point. But what exactly is it that people dislike about him so much?
                  Ward's style of fighting makes every fight ugly. He holds and hits, hits on the break and head butts his opponents. Offensively, he's mediocre with no ko power. As a boxing fan, Ward's just no fun to watch.

                    Dude, no one gives a crap about if you're a good human being, if they don't like how you fight, and what you do in the ring. I'm a Ward fan, and even I know why people would hate him.

                      It's cause he is boring inside and outside the ring. Some idiots like golden boi want to say it's cause he is black but I don't think that's it
