      Considering I have him with Roy Jones as top 2 168 pounders all time absolutely top 50 p4p.

        Let’s put it this way...in 10 years, nobody will even have a clue who Andre Ward is/was. He isn’t even in the top 100.

          - -Not true

          He'll be part of that establishment boxing commentary team that fans use as dartboards.

            What does one HAVE TO DO to make the list ?

            Compare Ward to those guys.

                It's a weird one, even after everything he did – I think a lot of people can say his career was lacking a bit to be called an ATG. He could probably beat most fighters head-to-head, lb for lb. It takes someone who can box really well and some extra freakish ability to beat him – power/athleticism.

                  I definitely think he’s top 50 for modern era.

                    Ok that’s reasonable
