Brandon is not exactly hard to find, and Mickey's world class left hook will find a home, repeatedly. I remember Strong as a bull Shea Neary being broken down by it, Brandon may have a great chin...and superhuman determination..but he has one track and one gear...Forward..Onward...Into...Ward...and that Left Hook.. If he had a bit of versatility...Like Gatti or Antonio Diaz..to go with that eagerness for Battle he would have chances..but he would not be on a Track-to-Wack pursuit of a mobile boxer, but a tough tough guy in his own right..with that world class Bad Cargo...in the loading bay...ready to deposit...with Precision...It takes the Steam out of Brandon then bursts the boiler.
Rios would win early/most rounds, Ward's only chance imo is to find a home with that left to the body consistently, and load up enough on one to put the tough Rios away (which is a far shot).
Ward had 51 fights and lost 1 by tko due to a cut. how the hell does rios do what no one else could do? :rofl rios may win, be he aint knocking Ward out, thats for ****ing sure
