    has shown to be suspect(Boone uppercut). Things have been cleaned up but he beat Dawson outside of his natural weight and Abraham was exposed by Dirrell and hasn't won against a B level guy since. Froch was outboxed but Taylor and Dirrell did that vs. Froch the majority of the night too. In 2004, the headbutting and holding were just at an amateur scale.

    He is good but a tad below Floyd and may never get to that level due to inactivity.

    SOB Ward will only fight in his home town with his personal referee and judges. He is the "ONLY" boxer who did not have to travel in he crooked fixed tournament. He beat Kessler by intentional headbutt that came from across the ring, even the commentators said it. However, SOB had his personal referee to claim that intentional, illegal headbutts are legal, as long as it is Ward who is doing the butting.

    I Hate when fans talk about chins like that is all that matters. anyone can get buzzed by a shot that is perfectly placed or one they do not see. The reality is that Ward is the heir apparent to the P4P crown after Mayweather calls it a day. As the poster stated above, he would be favoured over anyone from 160-175.

    At the moment, both Ward and Floyd sit comfortably behind Rigondeux on any neutral observers P4P List

    :lol:

    I like Rigo and he could challenge Ward after floyd is gone for the crown but he has to fight a lot more top guys to prove he can handle all styles.

    Martinez should be higher that Rigo. 1 big victory doesn't make up for years of dominated one's division.

    The fact that Ward and his team are trying to coax the man who ruled the division before retiring 5 years ago, tells you all you need to know.

    Rigo ahead of Floyd and Ward? Wow. Some bandwagon nuthuggers will say anything.

    Floyd and Ward will lose their spots when they stop fighting stop contenders, look really bad in their next fights, or stay inactive for the allotted time.

    How else could Pacroid ever be P4P#1 on anything but a technicality?

    It's not just that though. Boone can lay you out with one shot. He has proven this multiple times. I'm not saying he is good, but his power is pretty ****ing scary.
