    No, he's not Pacman and it would be tough to pay $60 if he was the feature guy but "boring", at least to me, is someone who doesn't do enough to win. Sort of guys like Allan Green or Chad Dawson. Ward comes to fight, it's just the way he fights isn't the most eye friendly. I respect guys who come to fight and throws a ton of punches. I don't like watching guys who don't come to fight.

    I acknowlede that what he does is affective for him it does win. But again half of boxing is economics and back to my original post on this thread, im astonished if anyone feels that his style is entertaining hence would be even willing to pay to see him fight live or otherwise. His style is frustrating to watch.

    Old Hopkins can get away with it cause his tank is short. But ward is 26

    Just a lame excuse. Beet him at his on game is ****. It`s not about that. Its about putting a good skills show and win. He did just half of that. He could just outbox Bika like others did and look better.

    exactly if that was a PPV, their would've been alot of pissed off people. And because of that fight their will be alot less people inclined to attend one of these snoozefests or buy his PPV. Half of boxing is economics.

    Ppls say he got the skills , and he does. But in the same time ppls make it sound like....outboxing Bika it was to easy and Ward decided to fight Bika`s fight and prove he can do better. This is ****ing hilarious. Ward was out of his confort zone and Bika was forcing him to fight his fight. Ward was frustrated and could not adjust. He got the win, but not as close as the scorecards say

    Not by the last two fights, which were boring and kind of ugly.

    They're not supposed to be entertaining; they are supposed to be instructional.

    Yeah, we hate Mexicans too... that's why we didn't like John Ruiz. Because honestly: who could hate that Ward/Ruiz lunge, hit and hug style? It's so EXCITING!
