    Adonis Stevenson vs Andre Ward

    I like both guys, Ward has better resume but Adonis has that basic 1 2 with big power. Is it enough to beat Ward though? Andre imo is the toughest guy to beat in boxing next to rigo and loma, but I do think of Adonis as one of the biggest punchers in boxing, i even favor it more than Kov, but not sure about Adonis chin. And Im not sure if Adonis can get anything done if Andre goes in and smothers the work. Just starting a random box thread while i wait for 2pm. Who you got?

      Yea hes def always avoiding the big fights but i think hes down for this one due to Ward size and lack of power. Hes less fearful of Andre so it might happen If Ward lets it happen. But I wouldnt be mad at ward if tell Adonis to screw off, but I would like to see another fully unified champ

        Easy matchup for Ward imo. Once Ward gets by the left hand. What does Adonis have?

            I think ward is a tactician at this **** and Adonis is just a bomber. I like both but I think ward game plans him easily

                Ward would school Adonis so badly that he might retire immediately after. Stevenson is not worth Ward's time to be honest.

                  That Stevenson left is so dynamic not even Andre Ward can get past it. And it's not just the straight left. He throws the hook, he throws it on the inside, and he throws it to the body. It's the combination of speed and power. Plus Stevenson is a front runner meaning he jumps on you early. It's hard to prepare for because it can't be duplicated in sparring. There isn't a LHW in the world that can stand in front of that left hand.

                    Darnell Boone got past his left hand once and ko'd him
