Beats them besides Beterbiev IMO...I've posted this years ago while Ward was still Active that Beterbiev would give Ward serious problems because Beterbiev is a compact powerful built guy so those Inside Tactics won't work vs Beterbiev. Also Beterbiev is a good inside fighter, good body puncher and can generation so much Power on Short Shots on the Inside
Ward was Tough and a very High In Ring IQ and can make adjustments to different style as well so he would likely find a way to Out-Box Beterbiev
I've never in my life seen a fighter generate power in such a short range like Beterbiev does.
He's probably referring to Ward getting dropped by Boone, which isn't a big deal IMO. Too many people think getting dropped in a fight makes you a bum now. And Boone was the type of fighter who was always dangerous. Way better than his record would have you believe.
Ward was rocked on more than one occasion early in his career and it scared him into that grapple style the same way Tua scared Ruiz. He was chinny. People forget about this because after Boone he never really absorbed another bomb thanks to the style change.

Tua didn't scare Ruiz. Tua gave Ruiz brain damage That's like saying Mercer scared Morrison

He scared Ruiz into grappling in future bouts is what I was saying. Space equaled danger in his eyes following that fight. He was turned into huggy bear.
how would he have got on against the likes of bivol, beterbiev etc?
Beterbiev and Bivol are great light heavyweights in my opinion and better than Ward and Kovalev ever were. Ward would beat some of the good light heavyweights but not those two in my opinion.
