Originally posted by mlac View Postthis never happened and if you claim it did your a g string anti american ball gagger, as you can see from the post above mine ^
The headbuts, dirty tactics, excessive clinching never happen
The robbery v kovlaev never happened. clear SOG win baby
the clear DQ by deliberate headbuts on arguably his best win v kessler never happened.
because we all know Andre Ward is a ' well spoken family man' and if you claim any of the above ^
you're
A) a racist anti american
b) a hater
c) a lil g fanboy
HTH
Again, based on you saying he doesn't headbutt, clinch, hold, use dirty tactics I'd say you fall under the categories I mentioned. "Clear" win. Not even Ward says that.

Being at the top alone doesn't mean you're an asset to your sport (somebody's gotta be there), it's how attractive you make the sport look.
Posters like you often say a given fighter isn't exciting yet that fighter draws more fans on or sells more PPV's than a boxer you claim is, he just doesn't get the same marketing push.

Originally posted by Cutthroat View PostAbraham was considered a P4P fighter in the sport before entering the Super 6. He was ggg before ggg was around, folding up guys like lawn chairs. Froch is a great fighter, extremely awkward, durable and powerful, a 168 version of Maidana type fighter which gave Mayweather all he could handle.
How many other fighters have fought a string of opponents that were such dangerous punchers? You examine a resume like Calzaghe for instance and the biggest punchers he fought were Kessler with a 70% KO ratio, followed by Lacy, and guys you never heard of.
It's a lot easier to look good against guys that can't punch, look at ggg vs Jacobs, DJ arguably winning despite being an 8-1 underdog, his power being a major factor.
I think Calzaghe has more wins over champions than does Ward. I've heard of them because I follow Boxing not Boxers.Last edited by chrisJS; 03-28-2017, 02:50 PM.

Originally posted by A.K View PostDraws more fans? Most people ordered for kovalev, wards ratings on bet was trifiling and one of the worst on hbo. He's one of the most boring fighters in the sport he isn't attracting any fans.
If you think Ward is boring, fine.

Super 6 period, absolutely. Not everyone's cup of tea stylistically but he fought the top guys and he won.
The last few years though; inactive, extremely entitled and his comments since getting a pretty contentious decision over Kovalev have been pretty ludicrous.
