    Why I like Ward, Mayweather, Crawford

    The thing is, people like to talk about how boring Ward, Mayweather and Crawford is, kinda like Rigondeaux, being a black technician is a curse in the eyes of the casuals. I even saw a thread in here asking us (Ward fans) if we genuinely enjoy to watch Ward fight and what we enjoy about it. Let me tell you what I like to see in a boxing match.

    I like to see boxing on as high a level as possible. I don't care if it's technicians or brutal warriors. It's all about the level. If Ward fights the best and beats the best, then that makes him interesting to follow. I like to see the best fight each other so that we get to see the best skillsets in action.

    Some people prefer action more than quality, but not me.

      So you don't consider quality to be synonymous with entertainment? Personally, I'm rarely too entertained when bad boxers are fighting, even if they are fighting world war 3... The quality is just low.

        Similar. There's no denying Ward's ability to get results but if I'm looking for high level flash it's Floyd or Rigo. I really like Crawford too, but I just need to see a little more before I'm absolutely sold. In terms of enjoying watching him fight though he's right up there with my favourites.

        There ain't no right or wrong answer here though. We each enjoy what we enjoy - but at the end of the day it's the results that count

          Crawford & Ward are mean as fugg inside the ring, Dudes show no mercy once they figure out their opponents. Floyd lets you simmer in your own frustration and slaps the chit out of you. (May aint trying to hurt his handz anymore so he will slap a bytch instead)

          I enjoy watching all 3 doe, TC & Ward just a bit more than Money.

            Playing the race card in the first few sentences, huh...

            And don't even put Ward and Mayweather in the same category. Floyd has a great defensive/counter-punch style. Ward relies on pushing the boundaries, bending and sometimes totally disregarding the rules.

              What I like about Floyd is his counter punching, elusiveness, movement etc.

              Ward grappling is not that entertaining to me. I respect his talent & have him as p4p #1 tho. Would obviously rather watch him fight than some random Mexican brawlers tho.

              I just prefer the styles of Floyd, JMM, Toney, Canelo, Rigo over Ward.

                  Really enjoy watching Crawford, I think he Is the next big thing. I didn't care to watch Ward before last Saturday night and now I am Interested In seeing his next fight and last and definitely least, Floyd Mayweather. I don't care for his style and as of right now If I never seen him fight again, It wouldn't bother me In the least.

                    Duck and Hug, Punch and Grab.

                    Crawford not like Ward and Mayweather though. Nice to watch. Ward worst. Mayweather at least you see the pullback-counter and the check-hook Ward is hug then punch in the clinch or while separating only.
