    "He's the most disciplined, organized, and focused fighter in the sport today, bar none. There is nobody that touches him in those departments."

    Al Bernstein

    Just hearing that on the radio now.

    Who did Joe beat even close to Ward? Who beat Kessler more soundly Andre Or Joe? Kessler gave all sort of problems to Joe But look clueless against Andre.

    Ward KO2 Calzaghe

    Ward can't punch. The guy is a SMW with JWW power. That flaw means that at some point in the near future he is going to take an awful beating.

    I wouldnt call his modified european style conducive to anything too technical, defensively or offensively. He doesnt even have a guard, and his left hand hangs down past his waist. He definitely is a slick puncher though... he's there to get hit with such an open or non-existent guard, and he does get hit.

    Yay. Found one of these Headbutt Conspiracy Theorists! Yes, he defeated Kessler due to headbutts and with no point deductions. Im not fond of european fighters that whine and fault "cheap tactics" that led to a sound defeat. Swear i read in an article of the Headbutt Conspiracy Theorist Times that they interviewed Allen Green and they quoted, " I became sick in the ring after 4 headbutts, and felt my energy depleted. Thats why i came up short."

    Ward is not a Puncher by no means, but he does have 13KO's of 22 fights - thats really not to bad for a "boxer". He does have average punching power.

    Errrrr... he may be soon the best "boxer" if not already.... and he's not "Technical"? OK....... And, read the Topic Subject. It's "Best Technical Fighter", not "Best Classical Technical Fighter" ~ this shows what most posters are mistaken about...

    And the last one? First it was Ward KO3 Calzaghe, now Ward KO2 Calzaghe. Your next post will end Ward KO1 Calzaghe. Ok brotha, i love me some Andre Ward too, but i aint THAT stupid!!! I wouldnt expect Ward to KO Calzaghe at all, let alone in the early rounds lmao

    Andre Ward is the goods. He did win the gold medal after all. He's been taking his time in building his pro career and this super six tournament is going to serve as his showcase.

    I just saw his first pro fight today on the undercard of the Tarver/Johnson I fight I have. He was good even then but seemed a little too anxious to get his man out of there and he also pawed which he still does. I don't know why he paws because his jab isn't half bad.

    The more I do an analysis on the kid (focusing on skills, intelligence, and atheletcism) the more I think the hype might be true.We'll see LOL.

    The best technical fighter is probably Ivan Calderon.

    Anyway, ANYONE who claims that Ward can KO or even TKO Calzaghe must've been born this year. No one that Ward has ever fought has what Calzaghe ever brought in the ring.

    He'd just get slapped down to a unanimous decision loss.

    Styles makes fights. Calzaghe is not as slow as Kessler, he is also someone who can adapt, infight, and butt heads and commit fouls if you try to foulfest with him.

    ok, im rating this moronic statement a D-

    exactly how punching power relates whether you're gonna take an awful beating or not? If that was the case, Ivan Calderon should have gotten awfully beaten up a good few times at least!
