After praising Ward's skill and versatility he comes out and fights 12 of the worst f*ckin rounds I have ever seen. Green was so negative that it made Ward look awful but show some imagination and give yourself a bit of punching room for f*ck sake. If he'd thrown that useless jab to the body one more time I would have been sick. It didn't set anything up, so he resorted to throwing one punch and falling into a clinch. 36 minutes of tedious bull****!
I dont know man, I kind of liked watching Ward work tonight. Showed us another side of what he is capable of.
Sorry mate Ward dominated and won an easy decision but the quality of work was really poor. If I'd have paid to be in that arena I would have been devastated. If a guy is looking for an excuse to lose (Green) then give him one. Andre didn't go for one solitary finishing burst on a guy who fought like a fairy! What the f*ck is that about?
The later rounds were a little better, but this 'bout' made Froch - Dirrell look like a all-time classic. The ref didn't help also... with his 'hands are free, hands are free! allowing the constant clinching, pushing, holding and hitting from Ward and actually giving Green a warning once when he pushed Ward back! atsch Ward made it a B-Hop or even Ruiz bout, and Green's lack of skill made it into an all-time stinker. While the commentators were watching another fight altogether, wish I saw that bout too.
Naw, it's alright ... I've lost the ****ing will to live. So you praise him for his versatility, he comes out and shows us something we've never seen from him before and totally negates Greens gameplan for the entire fight giving one of the most one-sided beatdowns this year ... and this is a reason to hate on the guy? Like I said, carry on ... I'm not wasting my time.
Way too much clinching in the fight - Totally agreed! "Hand are free! Hands are free!" Em! No they're not you silly fat f*ck now break them up!
That's the point. We've seen this before (B-Hop, with some flashes of Ruiz) and we never want to see it ever again!
Large Font 1: Well f*ckin kill youself. Large Font 2: Quote me on hate? I said the fight was awful but I'm a fan of Ward. In fact I've been defending him all week. However, if you call slinging single shots and falling into a clinch versatility then you're easy pleased. The in fighting was **** poor and it was round one repeated 12 times. That to me is a **** performance at top level! No comebacks please - "don't waste your time!!"
I gave up watching that hugfest after 3 or 4 rounds without any significant exchanges. The ref let them spend almost an entire round so close up, that there wasn't punching room at all. I didn't like how Ward rushed in with his head down against Kessler, but at least he displayed his skills from the outside. Maybe I should watch the later rounds and see, if there's some boxing to be seen.
I completely agree, me and my friend were disgusted. I havent felt this way about a fight since watching Klitschko fight Ibragimov.
