Is Andre Ward in many ways a poor man's Floyd Mayweather Jr

[Mr Objecitivity]

In terms of boxing abilities / skills. Andre Ward appears to be an emulator of Floyd Mayweather's style. He looks horrible in comparison though.

[jas]

mayweather better fighter

ward has to make up for lack of athleticism by smothering

[vaynardevil]

both has great ring IQ, but mayweather's style is smoother i think

[mlac]

no. a poor mans b hop is a better comparison.

[Lou Cipher]

Mayweather is ten classes above that **** head.
Floyd fought Prime fighters in their prime, and beat them legitimately. Genaro Hernandez, Chico Corrales, Artuto Gatti, many others. Even the fights he lost, he still had the balls to fight them.

If Floyd had retired after he beat Arturo Gatti and never fought again, then Andre Ward would be in comparison.

Andre Ward is a rich man's Joe Mesi.

[Larry the boss]

fights nothing like Mayweather..better comparison would be Hopkins

don't see it. ward is not as athletic he more like a faster older bhop but both are great ward just not as much

[SweetPbfAli]

More B-Hop than Floyd but he did borrow the stab jab to the body from Floyd. Floyd was much more athletic but both are cerebral fighters.

[BattlingNelson]

Ward is DSBE.

De Secand Bestest Eva!
