    he is probably the single dirtiest fighter that had so much success in the last decade.
    He often head butted, grabbed and low blowed his way to victory, in addition to that he was a cringy poor mans mayweather that would not leave his backyard and every aspect of a fight had to be on his terms.
    Seriously that edwin rodriguez fight was probably one of the most unwatchable fights i have ever seen. The way he head butted kessler through 8 rounds was just pathetic and i dont want to start about all those nut shots he threw at kovalev.
    Then he got beaten crisp and clear by kovalev, you really need to be a relativ of ward to think he won that fight, at absolut best you could have made that a draw.
    Plus he is constantly inactive didn't bother to defend those titles at lhw despite the fact that there was a line of russians that were on pair with kovalev who could beat him.

    let me turn the question around: how can you like andre ward???

    so ward won the kova fight and he didnt head butt kessler over and over? And he fought outside of his comfort zone ever?
    You are denying reality.

    Andre Ward would come out as one of the worst of these careers.

    We know why they hate him. It’s so obvious.

    Not even close to.
    All of the guys he beat in the S6 wen't on to win titles, including Bika.
    Dawson was in his prime but made the mistake of moving down in weight(his own idea).
    And the Kovalev wins were/are controversial.
    But everyone were in their primes or close to it.

    Ward should come back and clean out LHW. Ripe for the picking.

    I'll be shocked if he wins this lawsuit.

    He fought twice with a supposed career ending knee injury yet won both fights vs Kovalev. He also pulled out of the fight with Brand in late 2015 because of a knee injury. Lloyds of London can say it was a pre-existing condition or that the injury clearly wasn't career ending as he did fight twice and win with that injury.

    Ward doesn't have a good track record with lawsuits or arbitration as his attempts to get out of his contract with Goosen shows. I suspect again he'll be racking up another loss in court.

    The S6-fighters were of EU-Level, everybody knew that Ward would outbox them all. All they could bring was the punchers chance into the ring against Ward.

    Dawson had lost to Badou Jack. Ward is the better boxer, compared to both. Ward stated this multiple times too.

    Bika lost to Calzaghe, Bute and Mendy, before Ward faced him.

    He sued his insurance company. Not sure if his case is valid or not.

    Dawson fought Jack?
    And all of those European Level guys held world titles. Some longer than others. So how exactly were they all a level below world class while winning world titles? They all overachieved or something? :lol:

    Regardless. The same ****ing game can be played with absolutely everyone´s career.

    Correction, Pascal beat Dawson.

    The European fighters were pretty good, i take nothing away from them. But none of them had the competitive boxing-skills or slickness to challenge Ward.
