      Put him in the ring with Dominick Breazle. He’s a top 10 guy I guess. That would be perfect target practice on how to land clean punches . Dominick has no head movement and is a upright fighter.

        I was tactful enough not to go into skill comparison, but it seems like you'd want that. Sure.

        Schools easily? Easily?! Ward lost to Kovalev in their first fight. Lost clean. Close, but clean. I would rate Usyk above Kovalev (and that is with respect to Kova). There is no scenario where Ward would "school Usyk easy". I can understand your confusion though, you probably never seen Usyk in the ring. Plenty of stuff on YouTube, btw.

        I don't think it would be a walk in the park fight for either of them, but I'd give edge to Usyk on skill and technique, even setting aside size.

        But no point talking about it, this fight would never happen, Ward wouldn't risk his "0" with Usyk in general and specifically after such a long break.

          That is not true. His manager stated that dyllan and parker turned down the fight too. There's a tweed from those fighters denying that they fight was offered to them.

Usyk is a real world champion, beat all the champions in their backyard and was actually undisputed champion, no dirty tactics, no corruption, no paid off judges, no balls punching, no billy goat tactics.
            Well its not as if Ukraine is exactly a place where fighters come to win belts!

            So its not as if he had a say in the matter.

            Usyk is good , very good.

            So is Ward. Its not an opinion. Its a fact.

            Feel free to have the last word (opinion) ....on Ward.

                I see...you never watched the fight or don't know the meaning of "life and death".
