I am gradually warming to Ward as he has started to fight more than spoil and foul but the G-Man was a ****ing beast. I can't see Ward having the power to keep McClellan at bay and I damn sure don't think his Chin would hold up against those bombs. I can't reiterate enough what an animal he was at his best and it is a shame that the blood clot wasn't caught before the Benn fight because he could have gone on to truly epic things.
If Ward had a better chin, I would certainly favour him over Gerald. Trick to McC was to make it past the 6th and you're home free, but Ward wouldn't make it I think.
Even with a blood clot in his brain and a horrid ref allowing Benn to cheat like a mother****er he was winning that fight by a huge margin.
