    Andre Ward Is The Most Skilled Boxer In boxer

    How many of you hit the bag regularly, honestly? I've been in the last year powering my left arm, Jab. I feel it will never be as good or strong as my right. But that's fine. I do not a lot of exercises to strengthen my all my ligaments and try to mimic what the elites do. I will never be as swift as Ward or Floyd's body jabs, and I think Garcia or Thurman are but a few to get better at the body Jab in the future.

    First and foremost you have to be super fit, flexible to bend you entire body and retract in a defensive stance.

    When I see Ward flex his left jab faint coming forward is freaking badass as he snaps their heads back. That takes a lot of force to setup. Second, that one move where Ward smashes Kovalev's body with a 2 hit combo on the waist in ONE second I think how does Ward have such speed on his torso to even do that. Loma or Rigo ain't on that level.

    Why is Ward so underrated? The dude is a master at boxing! Live the moment!

    lomachenko is more skilled.

    for a guy as accomplished as ward, he has horrible punching technique.

    he would have more legal not nut busting ko's if had better punching technique.

      Dude jabs and then clinches. If you rely on clinching to win, you're not as great as advertised. Ward is the Maserati of boxing.

        Andre Ward is effectively a southpaw who fights orthodox. His right is the weak side. His left is amazing..ask Chad

          He is not "THE MOST" but he is one of in this ERA absolutely! Honestly the most skilled boxer(s) I have seen in this ERA of boxing are not even Pro Yet: Robeisy Ramirez and Julio Cesar La Cruz. Ramirez is SPECIAL though, I think he is a SUPERSTAR if he ever turns PRO! He mixes Skills with Aggression to perfection, like a young Roberto Duran!


          As for Current Pros who are the most Skilled while Ward no question is one of them, I do think Rigondeaux is the most SKILLED Pro Boxer Currently! Loma, Ward, Linares (So Underrated!), Crawford, Inoue are a few guys who come to mind instantly when you talk about PURE SKILLS! Another underrated guy actually is James DeGale! His stamina is just **** but DeGale has it all honestly...for the first 6 Rounds Of A Fight!

            He's the most skilled boxer in this era besides Mayweather. Dude is just unbelievable, he has it all. I feel the same way about his jabs, especially the left jab he puts so much force into it more than i've seen anyone else do. He's very hard to hit, can fight inside and has a lot of determination too. The reason he doesn't get the credit is because there's still a lot of racism in boxing and people don't want to give credit to him because he doesn't knock people out. But look at the guy's he's fighting it's very hard to knock out top competition.

            I love watching the guy fight. He's a master of boxing like a combination of Floyd and Bernard Hopkins if you ask me. Plus he hasn't lost since he was a kid, guys this good don't come around very often. There's nobody that can beat him.

              Ward is P4P #1 and is definitely highly skilled. As far as pure talent I would give that to Lomachenko. Crawford and Mikey Garcia are also exceptionally skilled fighters. Of course none of them went through the oppositions that Ward went through.

                if ward was so great why does he do illegal things nonstop to win fights? if he didnt need to do them why does he do them? he gets the dubious wins but he doesnt get the respect. once again fanboys only talking about certain things while ignoring other things that help him win figths. its his jab! sure and his clinching, low blows, headbutts, wrestling. now lets look at the rules of boxing....uh oh!

                    Lomachenko is the real deal but he has a long way before he's on Ward's level.

                    Also, watch him closely, he's developing some veteran moves himself. Because he's so athletic it's hard to see but it's there.

                    You must have "Ward Alerts" on all your devices. Lol.
