    How many here actually enjoy watching Ward fight?

    I like watching tactical fights and have enjoyed watching Mayweather in the past, but whenever I watch a Ward fight it baffles me why anyone would want to watch him. Forget about the Kovalev fights and the controversies...all that aside, do you genuinely like watching him? What's the appeal? I'm not hating or trolling, just genuinely interested in what you like about him in the ring. I just don't see it.

    By the way you should watch the Kova vs Ward 2 fight. Some say there was a significant difference from the first fight, and comically all the Ward haters or the neutralists are focusing on the final shot Ward landed... some are even going off one judge having Kovalev winning like Harold... who was getting quoted as the fight progressed...

    Seriously though you should watch it to see how great Ward performed in which Pascal nor Bhop could remotely do...

      I still think the Kova 2 stoppage was **** but Ward put in a great performance, and was walking Kovalev down in the latter rounds of the fight. Impressive stuff. I also think Ward has been in lots of fun fights, like his match with Bika during the Super Six.

      I think he's more entertaining and fluid than people give him credit for, the way people talk about his style you'd think he was Bernard Hopkins The Sequel.

          He is the worst of the pure boxers to watch, I really enjoy watching late Hopkins, Floyd and The jackal, but Ward is just on that ugly level.

            Look at my sig, you see how I enjoy watching technicians.
            I even tolerate watching Bhop to a certain level, enjoy it. And have no problem with a little forearm on the opponent's face, clinching when needed or ducking below the waist.
            But Ward is just a dirtbag with zero power and aggressiveness: headbutts, doubleleg takedowns, elbows, low blows, excessive and out of habit clinchs, monotonous fight rhytm.

                  I found both fights with Kovalev very entertaining, 2 very skilled guys at the highest level, came down to grit and willpower. Classic rivalry!

                    Froch did better than kovalev vs a much younger Ward. At least fought on the inside.
