    Wards always seemed confident hed beat AJ, but I think its all wrong for Ward and AJ beats him.

    How bad he beats him is up to Ward. I think Ward could potentially bike his way to survive similar to how Jake did for awhile, but even then I think as AJ begins to get into his groove he may wind up catching and stopping Ward late.

    If Ward tries to 'bully the bully' like his mindset has a tendency to do, he gets stopped sooner.

    lol.

    Ward is annoying cause he talks about AJ like he's already beaten him. AJ wins. Ward has nothing at all to keep him off him.

    As much as I can't stand Jake Paul, I'd be willing to wager a ton of money that he hits at least twice as hard as Ward. AJ might struggle for a round or two, but Ward was never quite the runner, so he'd probably end up taking him out earlier than Paul, because styles and boxing is crazy like that.

    Ward always was a dirty fighting piece of sh*t. Those tactics wouldn't work on the huge Joshua.

    I've never rated Joshua but he'd brutalize Ward and I for one, would love to see it.

    After yesterday I'm not writing Ward off. Joshua can't cut the ring, it's confirmed. He made Pauls circling footwork and defensive look legit for the first few rounds ngl, im convinced even mid 70s Ali would torch joshua now.

    if he can make Paul look good, Ward would probably win rounds. Idk if he can survive the distance though

    Ward tries so hard to be black...is hilarious. Wants to be like Deontay and trash AJ, and Ward will DUCK like Deontay

    AJ sons his ass and Ward would be known as "Son of AJ" from thereforth

    You want to beliveve that so badly because Ward is easy to dislike a great deal

    AHHHHHH. Now I get it. Ward acts too "white". You know of course that this is what has been ****ing up black people since Lyndon B, right? Math is too "white". Science is too "white". Trust is too "white".


    But I'm not clueless and you know it. Ward will get AJ super tired over about 8 rounds and then beat him down. It's really that simple. Yes AJ could catch and overwhelm Ward. It's a fight. **** happens, but it's far more likely that Ward tires AJ out and stops him because Ward is a LOT smarter and more disciplined than AJ. Done/done.
