Who punches harder: Sven Ottke or Andre Ward?

Dude. You really hate Ward.

 

A prime Slappy would fight Magee.

 

I think Andre Ward hits harder than Sven Ottke. The fact he's won about half his fights by KO is a fairly strong indicator. Ottke stopped how many opponents in his career? 5 or 6?

 

too hard to call.:rofl

 

Fascinating thread.
I agree they do have alot in common. Remember how Ward was somehow given the decision against

Ottke has finished his career whilst Ward is still very much in his, so at this time Ottke has overall fought at a much tougher level.
Their respective styles are different. Ward is a more physical fighter whilst Ottke was more on the move. As for who was the harder puncher, its hard to say. When a fighter fights in world class they score less stoppages and Ottke won a world title in his

Ottke showed he had a better chin.

Anyhow in answer to the question. I couldnt imagine Ward KOing Mundine.
I think Ward is the physically stronger fighter, but Ottke possibly a very slightly harder puncher.

If Ward does anything near to what Ottke did at SMW I will look again :good

 

Ward does not feast on no-hopes. Ward,fights the cream of the crop and beats them up.

 

A 9 fight Mundine was primed, lol.

 

ward slightly the harder hitter for me, though i will re-assess the situation when ward has made 10-15 defences of his title.

 

all over everyone...but he aint shitting all over ward...im not gonna say who would win because its hypothetical ...... its no walk over for either.... i bet against joe like alot of people when he stepped up....so i dont throw around bull**** predictions of ward kicking his ass because who KNOWs? great fight though....

 

lets see.....Ottke has "6" KNOCKOUTS in 34 fights... :rofl

I see you are just as delusional as ever

 

You obviously didnt read the full post atsch. Thick and stupid as ever.
Read this bit from the post.

Forget that ***?

Now Ottke scored a KO over a fighter who won a SMW title more than once.
Ward hasnt KOd anyone in world title fights at this time.

Consider Froch who was thought of a solid puncher has one KO in 7 world title fights and that was over J Taylor who had been KOd previously and in his very next fight after.

Get it now. Who has Ward ever KOd as good as Mundine? NOBODY

 

Kessler nuthugger alert!

To compare these two refs is ridiculous.

Ottke's ref was beyond a joke, the ref in the Ward fight was decent aside from a missed headbutt or two.
