    Why?

    Both superstar amateurs.

    Both the best in their division.

    Both suffer from promoters who cant get good fights.

    Both considered "boring"

    2 peas in a pod.

    Giant??

    That giant got smacked around by Sergio and was was arguably beaten by career LMW/MW Vera.

    Ward would bully him like he did that other tough guy Froch.

    Rigo doesn't headbutt or hold excessively his skills aren't boring and he can knock people out

    Rigo is way better to watch than Ward imo

    The way Ward fights is complete BS and I think it shouldn't be allowed.

    Ward's not number 2 p4p because he's not done anything to suggest he's p4p a better fighter than people at other weights.
    If he went down to beat GGG, than moved up to 175 and cleared out that division. He's got my attention.

    Currently. He's just a "what if" to me. Top dog in 168lbs only. Wlad is more dominant in HW, using this logic he should be higher.

    There are major differences between them. Rigo is boring because he is so good, but he is not a dirty fighter like Ward! Rigo also doesn't have Wards rotten personality.:!:

    There's no point in arguing with stb about ward , he could wrestle a guy to the ground and headbutt him into submission in the ring and stb would say it was skilful and proves how good ward is

    Ward is an afterthought. He was spoiled in the super 6, beat chinny Dawson and quite frankly I'm beginning to doubt his qualities. Perhaps its because HE HAS ONLY FOUGHT ONCE IN EARLY TWO YEARS! Hop on a plane, Andre, fly to Europe and rematch Kessler. Show us you are willing to fight outside your comfort zone.....come on, I dare ya LMAO
