Why does every Ward opponent say he's a very dirty fighter?

[Real King Kong]

Ward was dirty, no question. He pushed the boundaries of the rules...but that's the difference between pro and amateur. He found a way to win with know how and grit over physical talent a lot of times. He probably works on stuff in the gym that most fighters don't really think about that much.

I like Ward but against Kov those shots were low. Just sayin.

Proof is in the fights. Anyone can look at the footage to see Ward was as dirty as they come. There are even YouTube compilation videos of this guys dirtiest moments...elbows, headbutts, low-blows, pushing, etc. Kessler suffered four cuts to his face and head from Ward's forehead and elbows. Hopkins was just about as bad.

Question for you Maxi-you and many other posters always suggest the way you beat elite boxers like Floyd and Ward is to make the fight a dirty brawl by employing certain tactics.

WTF bitch stop making up stuff. I never said something like that.

This. AW was dirty, but no dirtier than Maidana

No fighter says Maidana was dirty. Except Floyd "the puss1 one" Mayweather. Maidana is not dirty. Floyd hugged him 200 times and he went crazy because the ref wasn't doing nothing. Floyd was dirty.

He is a dirty fighter and a clinching, mauling, illegal holding and hitting fighter. Most of his fights were in the Oakland area where the refs let him get away with it. The guys who fight him consistently say he is dirty fighter because it's true.
