    Fun to watch tends to mean offensive fighter, who also blocks punches with his face.

    Yeah, just douching up a thread from a poster who simply wanted to say what a fan he was.

    Thank god you came in and corrected everyone who didn't say he was great, and then proceed to say society is dumb for Ward having fans.

    If you can't see what a douchebag you were, then kindly, f*ck off.

    So then who is your favorite NFL team then? Because my guess is that you can't stand them because they didn't win the Superbowl this year or years before. Ward beat Neary and won a strap and that was Mickey's zenith which is good enough for me considering the road he traveled was littered and plagued with nothing but roadblocks.

    Because of the great fights he was in, the heart he showed despite his limited skills. Not rocket science dude. Why does that bother you so much that an underdog like him who provided great entertainment gets praise?

    No one ever believes me when I tell them lmao. In football, losers aren't glorified though. You don't get moral victories like you do in boxing. Nice try though. I'll pm you my team but you can't tell anyone. It would be ****ed up. Seriously if you really want to know

    To me heart isn't in how many shots you can take while everyone is watching. That's the lazy path. True heart is in preparation. Becoming a better fighter. Those guys are rare. Mickey's are dime a dozen. There's no such thing as limited skills. Just content.

    Plz do
    Plz do, I'm from Texas so I ll give you one guess who I have followed since I was released from the Vag71na1 prison. BC that's what they do in Texas as soon as you come out is spoon feed you Jesus and Dallas Cowboys. And it is pure struggle being a Cowboys fan, even in dark times I still adore them.

    Idk, maybe Wards story was more known to the public than the other dozen heart engulfed fighters that you speak of, either way I love me some pride of Lowell.

    My favourite team in Rugby League is the West Tigers, they haven't won a premiership since 2005, they finished 9th on the ladder last year. Doesn't mean I don't love and support them and watch every game they have lol.

    You don't just have to always jump on the bandwagon to the winners. Everyone supports their own fighters for specific reasons. What do 99% of people watch boxing for? Entertainment. Ward was an extremely entertaining fighter. People enjoyed watching him fight. Hence why people appreciate him. Just because the entertainment criterea may not applicable to you doesn't mean everyone else is wrong??? Such an immature mindset

    Umn, I never said anyone was wrong about anything. I was just showing my admiration for Ward is all. I never stated he was an ATG.
