How would Andre Ward do against these fighters @ 175

He might beat DM & Hearns. The others are all-time greats, or boxers who
have proved their mettle against some of the best Light-heavies of all time.
The jury is still out on Ward.

 

The two easy victims Hopkins and Hearns following Matthew, Dariusz the rest a toss up.

 

He'd falcon punch them all to a TKO.

 

Punch them all in the balls & have Weeks as your ref/end thread.
All defeated.

 

Beats Hopkins too, but the rest hand him an ass whipping.

 

With or without Ward's personal referee, judges and boxing commission? If they were neutral Ward would lose............

 

darius and dwight perhaps, otherwise its too early to define his value at LHW yet. 2 wins (or rather, one win, one draw really) against the same elite isnt enough to tell.

 

he beats them all, there's no one now or in history who beats ward at 168 or 175.

 

Ezzard Charles is considered the best light heavy to ever lace em up. Not so sure about that one.

Real deal Holyfield

Dwight Quawi

some of these guys may be a bridge too far. But you cant take this to the bank that SOG will bring his A game.

 

RJJ kicks his ass at 168.

 

overated

 

He'd lose to the first 8 on that list. Ward is a very good fighter but overrated, he arguably lost 12 or 13 of the 19 completed rounds vs Kovalev. That just doesn't cut it at ATG level. With the assumption that he doesn't get the superstar treatment by refs and judges to run roughshod over his opponents with illegal tactics, he wouldn't do very well.

 

He already lost the first time to Kovelav at 175.
