    He's faced multiple B-level fighters, what does Chris Christie feed you in NJ?

    I don't think there is anything left to eat when Cristie is finished...

    He's also not in GGG's division, moron. You're basically saying, "A great bigger man beats a great smaller man." Gee thanks for the revelation.

    Kova and GGG are definitely good boxer punchers

    But most the time I would take a slick defensive fighter over the agressive boxer puncher

    Its like Sweet Pea against Chavez

    You cant KO what u cant hit

    Both Kova and GGG will find the target. Ward is probably betting favorite vs both though. Great fights. Hope we get 'em.

    Are you comparing Ward to a defensive wizard like Sweet Pea? Not sure thats on point.

    Yeah I agree, it'd make sense to pick Kovalev at 175 but I'd still pick Ward, skills just pay the bills, I've learnt that a while ago in this sport.

    GGG is too small to win against Ward.

    He can be competitive with both but I'd imagine both GGG and Kovalev can knock him down which would mess things up for him on the scorecards. He can get a decision against GGG if the fight is at 168 but it's highly unlikely he can beat Kovalev since Kovalev won't agree anything below 175.

    The difference is both ggg and kovalev are not just one dimensional power punchers, they are technical boxers as well with deadly accuracy.

    Both of them destroy ward.

    You make it hard to agree with you since you come across as a troll. But you are right, Ward beats Triple G and barely survives against Kovalev for a hard fought win.
