nice left hook and a jab but yeah never lived up. the colon thing def stopped him being a top contender but even without it i doubt he would of got to the top. his fights leading up to miranda showed he was one paced and not smooth enough. his defence is also inflexible and keeps his own attack pinned down. very static and very 1 shot. i doubt he could beat anyone in the top 10.
I think green is gonna put up a very competitive effort against Ward. 8-4 or 7-5 but still competitive. I think the miranda fight was a fluke. It looked nothing like allan green. He gots good power in both hands, average speed, and I feel his left hook can catch ward ducking in if ward fights aggressively. He is stiff though and ward will be able to find him and edge the rounds out.
I'm not a fan, but I do hope Green beats Ward. A Green victory here would stand this tournament on its freaking head!
when i first saw him fight in 2005 i did think he would have gone on to win a world title but since the miranda fight he hasnt been the same figther
