    I'll add it really is a great isolation of his most vital skills. Isolate the jab, replace it with his own; counter using a control of distance and angled upper body movement; advance with combinations while weaving under and blocking shots.

    Hunter seems big on using the lead hand as a tool to control and distract. He has Khan stretching it out as he changes the angle and bait shots he can capitalize on with his speedy offense.

    Kudos Vidic. This thread makes me more of a fan of Ward and it was really nice to brake up some things that are not so easy to notice. Like Floyd he makes his oponent look ordinairy and then people ***** around that they were not at their best that particular night :)

    P.S. Its a shame that the Pavlik fight fell trough. It was going to be a good win for Ward and a good cash out fight for Pavlik

    At the end of the day though, the beating he could have taken might not have been worth it. Even more-so if his heart wasn't into his preparation.

    I workout at the gym in oakland where Dre grew up and started his career. My trainer has known dre since he was 9 and one day we were talking and he said andre is the meanest person hes ever seen in the boxing ring. I believe that kinda backs up what you stated right there.

    Watch SOB Ward fight Vitali or Vladimir Klitschko and watch him get knocked out cold!!!!!!! Ward claims he can easily beat any boxing in the world today, so why not fight the Klitschkos ASAP! Ward fans claim he would knock Klitschkos out, so let's see it live on USTV now!
