Is Andre Ward better/more skilled than Floyd was?

So Oscar was old at 34, but you don't say anything about Floyd being 37 when he fought Maidana. And Oscar Maidana and Castllo were all world champions when Floyd fought them. Barerra was not

 

Wards beating Rodriguez, Smith and Barrera and there is a thread comparing skill with a fighter like Mayweather who was looking amazing against fighters like Hernandez, Corrales etc
This forum is a laugh a minute

 

Oscar looked fine to me. Im not saying he was at his peak but he was still world class. It wasn't until he foolishly tried to make a weight that he hadn't fought at in 8 years that he ruined himself.

And I see your point, I just wanted to add though for the purposes of this thread that sure Floyd has had some competitive fights but it was at the championship level. And he also courageoulsy immediately rematched the two guys who gave him tough fights and beat them much easier.

 

Floyds a lot bettet

 

How many divisions has Ward moved into, if you answer the question that will put an end to your quote.

 

Nah.

 

There's a difference between starting your career at 130 and starting your career at 168. at least ward fought and is planning to fight the bogeymen of the weight classes instead of picking the weakest champion out of the bunch like Floyd does

 

Ward looked like he could use some EPO last night.:hey

 

Floyd in his prime was FAR better than Ward IMO. Ward is closer to Bhop than a Floyd or Pernell.

 

Yeah a fighter with an under developed right hand is more skilled than Floyd.:huh

 

Floyd 2 levels above

 

Mayweather was robbed of a gold medal and a val barker.. instead they gave it to the guy who lost to Antonio Tarver in the world championships..

 

Ward is fundamentally sound just as much, but Floyd was the better athlete.
