    Defend it all you want but You make it very clear that you prefer the type of fighters normally considered boring. Good for you, we can't all like the same things:good

    Boring/great ;) Look I love the warriors too, Gatti, Chavez, Pryor etc etc... But I and many others get into watching ring generalship and classic boxing savvy...Hey that's what makes boxing great, different fighters and so many different styles :)

    Why do you Ward fans continue to demand GGG go UP? GGG is very comfortable at his current weight. In fact, he looks perfect at the weight. So why would he put on needless, excess weight to fight Ward, other than for a paycheck? If anything Ward ought to come DOWN to fight GGG, especially if he is as good as you guys seem to think he is.

    O I C. The guy who has proven himself, Ward, should come down to fight a guy whose notable win is Macklin? :rofl

    I actually don`t want to see GGG go up in weight, I think he should stay and clean out the middles... People have been saying he should move up and fight Ward, I`m not one of them, it`s a bad fight for him. And Ward move down to 160 ? Ludicrous

    Hagler fought 160 and was not asked to move up. Golovkin has unfinished business at 160. He needs to get more star power before he fights Ward. Tell Ward to move up to 175...............and to stop demanding that he only fight in his home town with his personal referee, judges, boxing commission, commentators, etc.......

    I agree, I will appreciate him more when he's gone because I wont see him ****ing fight, or hug or pitty pat or whatever the **** it is he does.

    I enjoy wathcing him. When he lets his hands go, he´s fun to watch and that jab is an absolutely beauty.

    Ward wins at least 9 rounds against any middleweight, super middleweight or light heavyweight out there.

    If you don't like his style it could mean that you either don't understand it or do understand it but don't know how to appreciate it. If you don't like that style stick to the styles to prefer watching, simple. Many hardcore boxing fans who know how insane it is to perform the way Ward, Mayweather, Robinson, Leonard, Ali and so on perform will always appreciate because they understand what's going on in the ring.

    To each his own I guess, I enjoy and appreciate most styles as long as they are preformed on a high level. I must agree as a person familiar with ring battles it takes a hardwork and dedication to add that layer of anylitical thinking while in combat....the anticipation, the prospective and progressive thinking that takes place in the ring with guys like ward, swea pea, mayweather is sometimes immitated but rarely is it duplicated. No true boxing enthusiasts can deny the the expertise; however, there are those that believe a real fighter bypasses the science and goes for the blood, guys and glory.
