    Tough choice but Inoue is up there along with Usyk for me.

    Ward is overrated because he is American.
    You guys make him way bigger than he is.
    If Calzaghe was an Anerican he would have been hailed as the second coming of Harry Greb

    Wards resume and accomplishments speak for themselves. He's not overrated he's an atg and one of the very best fighters of the era.

    Had he gotten the loss vs Kovalev and the DQ he deserved jn the rematch then people would sing a different tune about that hometown fighter.
    Great boxer yes
    Atg yes
    Overrated? Also yes.

    Loma before he had an off night v Loez and don`t forget he`s fighting above his natural weight, Bud is the fighter in the world right now and probably the best since Floyd`s era which wasn`t very good.

    If Pacs most important fight was Mayweather then Alis most important fight was Holmes.

    Wards a little overrated an ATG but he wasn't even active for half of it. Got away with dodgy tactics as he always fought on home soil and his best wins were against people who had already lost other than Kovalev and the First I thought he lost and the second he rabbit punched Krusher's testicles...
    So Usyk is clearly above Ward for the above reasons mentioned as he did it on the road without controversy.

    A close fight 7-5 either way isn't a robbery. A robbery is a fight that no case can be made for one guy winning. That wasn't the case on their fight.

    Lmfao! Pac lost other important fights though a faded erik Morales got ktfo against jmm losing the war and schooled by pbf. That's not good.

    Am i in minority when it comes to the "ooh and ahhs" of Ward's resume?? They way some speak of Ward here you'd think it was a very robust resume. Calling him an ATG as well?? He has a good resume. But there's nothing amazing about it. Even at 168, where he really has only a few top level wins. Color me confused....

    Why is losing to those three a bad thing Pimp? You realize you are talking about Pac losing to two of the best Mexican fighters and Floyd, your TBE boxer. So that's supposed to be an insult to Pac, losing to three HOFers???
