    :lol:

    In the minds of many people, a boring fighters from the USA is more exciting than an exciting fighter who was born in the USSR.

    Go figure.

    I like to watch both, but I'll say Vitali > Ward in terms of excitement because of the eventual KO that usually happens.

    Strange how the Super middleweight division has become an "amazing" division. When Calzaghe ruled it with an iron fist is was considered "utterly shite" now though after Calzaghe has retired leaving his left overs and men not fit to suck his **** to fight it out in close fights it's considered amazing now. Ward is a level above the rest though of course and would have given Calzaghe a good fight but the likes of Froch would have lost by a clear shut out needless to say.

    Both.
    Ward from the Forch fight was exciting (not joking). Also watched some of Ward's early career fights last weekend and I found they were pleasant to watch because the lack of head-butting (except his pro debut in which I found Ward doing some karate stuff).

    Thats because even though people recognize Calzaghe as the champ back then they never gave him the props he deserved as a great.
    When the non American ruled the division was "weak", and when the American (Ward) is champion now they say the division is deep....
    Ward is a very talented fighter and adjuster, but gets more credit for being an American........

    Joe only beat Kessler though from the S6 lineup, the rest cameup later or were fighters Joe did not bother with.
    Ward also beat Kessler a lot more convincing than Joe did which happens to be Joes greatest win.

    Calzaghe wasted almost his entire prime behind a promoter that did not have enough faith in him, he can only blame himself for that.

    Vitali is more exciting but his fights are so one-sided that they end up being boring in a lot of cases, but I haven't complained about his last 3 fights

    They are both skilled operators. I don't get how anyone can find boxing at elite level as "boring" regardless of style.

    Vitali because he has KO power. Ward's decision fighting is made even more boring with his constant dirty tactics.
