    It's highly unlikely that Ward stops Bika. Most likely Andre will outwork Sakio over the distance.

    I don't think he'll do it considering Bute failed at it... maybe a TKO by cuts.

    It was just a joke. I knew you were refering Calzone with your bolded part didn you?:yep

    That being said i dont even like Calzaghe, his Boxing style or his career.
    If he had Fight the best there was offer I would have respected him Greatly win or lose.

    You can write a book full of fantasies, that won't change a thing.

    Ward has average power.
    Ward is not a good finisher.
    Bika has a good chin.
    Bika is a dirty fighter, meaning you have to be careful if he's in danger.

    Ward ko'ing Bika is possible, but not propable. He had a one eye Kessler in front of him and could not finish him. He's the only fighter to have won against Miranda and not to KO him. He could not finish Green.

    Power is not something you can learn. You can improve it a bit, not more.

    will be nice to see a headbutt KO in oakland and I will not be surprised if the referee starts to count. I cant see any other ways that Ward is able to KO Bika

    Alright, my bad. You were a step ahead of me .... Thought you were doing a Connor Calzaghe defense of his dad or his alter ego "Bailey" posting some bs ... :lol:


    Agree with your post, man ...

    Unless the ref makes a hash of it and "saves" Bika, or unless it's on a headbutt cut, no.

    Bika's too tough. I only see him winning highly on points. Bika is technically an easy opponent.

    Altho Bika got the raw power to KO Ward.

    Conventional wisdom says Ward likely wins a decision and won't stop Bika, but i've got a feeling he'll get the stoppage here.

    Yeah, but if the ref makes a mess of it and stops Bika only because he's taken a nice combination flush, that won't count as a real stoppage, even though technically it will be, right?

    % KO

    Bute 81.5
    Abraham 78
    Froch 74
    Kessler 71
    Dirrell 65
    Ward 59

    Usually, the KO percentage goes down when the fighter faces stronger comptetition.
    Boxing is boxing, so everything is possible, but don't bet your house on a Ward's KO.
