    Ward is smart. Most black fighters are usually fighting in places where the crowd is against them.

    To be fair: a lot of the low blows he complains about are actually low blows. How about watching some of his fights and turning on the slow mo whenever he complains about it. In 3 out of 4 cases his complaints are valid.

    This said: Abraham can't do **** in terms of acting compared to Dirrel. Dr. Shaw Hi FTW.

    For some reason I think that wards style is going to be very ineffective vs AA

    On Saturday November 21, 2009 something stunk in Oakland, so I want you guys to do me a favor. Think back to Friday April 24, 2010. That was the night of Adamek/Arreola. Did you see any problems with the referee in that fight? Did you see any problems with Jack Reiss during any of the dozens of fights we've watched him work on Friday Night Fights? Have you ever seen problems with Reiss in any fight other than Ward/Kessler?

    I have always thought that Reiss was a fair and competent ref, and yet, on that one occasion Reiss had his head so far up his ass he failed to notice 9 head butts, and multiple ocassions of hitting on the break. How does a ref who was always fair before Saturday November 21, 2009, and has been fair everytime we've seen him since then, turn into an idiot for one night, and then back to fair and competent afterward?

    Food for thought.

    Folks, before you jump to the conclusion that Ward has the hometown advantage in this one, please know that the Los Angeles area has by FAR the largest Armenian population in the world outside of Armenia. Southern California could give a damn about Andre Ward. The crowd will be backing Abraham.

    Everybody has off-nights. Could be the case here. Hopefully.

    BTW the most ridiculous thing he did was that he went to Kessler's corner telling him that HE'D be disqualified if he continued to hold. Seriously wtf.

    This is true man. And that's why AA doesn't seem to complain about the venue.

    Minus the nonsense about how he's going to intentionally use his head against Abraham I agree with you. I don't see him as being effective on the outside as Froch. Despite what the measurements are on paper it seems like Froch has a longer reach then Ward in addition to more power which made Abraham hesitant. If he doesn't respect Ward's power he might become more aggressive. However, Ward knows how to fight inside and Abraham has no clue. I wouldn't be surprised if he pins against the ropes like he did Green and take him out of the fight mentally as he doesn't like to fight 3 minutes a round in addition to him probably already being mentally damaged from the Dirrell and Froch fights.

    He could fight him in a hat,
    or dress him like a cat,
    he could fight him in a vat,
    or bring a basball bat
    Ward will still squash him like a nat!
