    ****ing haters lol. It was actually Green doing most of the clinching. Ward pinned his head to Greens chest and wailed away. beat the leaving **** out of him.


    Ward is a true superstar and I say that as more of a Dirrell fan. Anyone claiming otherwise is a ****ing hater.

    Ward is a phenom. A young bhop. His fight game is grimey 80's baby style. I like this dude. He talks no **** and delivers.
    And yeah I find it ironic that hatton fans and ex hatton fans are saying he holds to much.
    Get a grip bitches.

    You're ******ed.

    So because Ward has many aspects to his game unlike that limited cheating of a midget Hatton, it's not okay for him to fight on the inside? Why let Green have a chance on the outside if he can nullify his entire game by going on the inside?

    Yes, I guess we're the dummies.

    There's only one RICKY HATTON... uh, wait?

    Actually didn't see enough chin up in the air, clinching, mauling, pulling the opponent's head down, and hitting and holding for him to be Hatton. And I'm actually a Hatton fan.

    were not talking about hatton.

    leave him out of it thankyou. :yep

    concerning ward.

    it's a valid criticism in so much as he wasn't changing it up enough.

    he was boaring in too much.

    and it didn't make for the prettiest action did it. :roll:

    hatton was an exciting fighter.

    hence the reason he got the punters thru the doors like few other fighters in the history of the sport. :smooch

    Ward pinned his head into green's chest and did not walk away but stayed there as long as he could keep green somthered. Smart gameplan and u can't say ward was holding per se to much just pinning and somthering Green. Green was too weak to do much about it. Effective but not pleasing to watch. It was like "dirty boxing agaisnt the cage" in MMA

    He was throwing with the free hand whenever he could, and green was the one holding the arms. Where is the problem here outside of green trying to keep from getting hit by holding.

    It's not a valid criticism. He can fight however he wants. Now **** off. You actually think a skilled boxer like Ward is boring but Hatton is ****ing heed over heals for his limited, mauling, bending the rules wrestling tactics. If this fight was boring it was because if Green, not Ward.

    And yes, Hatton's fighting is "pretty." But Ward's inside fighting is not.

    Green didnt even throw a punch in the 11th round he was trying to clinch so much.
