With honest judges and a fair referee, Calzaghe wins a clear wide decision. But with a dirty referee who permits Ward to use head butts, low blows and other illegal tactics, and with dishonest judges like in Ward-Kovalev I, the odds would favor Ward. This content is protected
Calzaghe by UD. Ward never really fought fast handed fighters. His dirty tactics would not help him in this fight, just like Hopkins.
It would look like Mayweather Pacquaio. He could throw the kitchen sink at the likes of Clottey and Marg but that output comes way down against Marquez and Mayweather Joes throw and land percentages against Roy were reduced significantly by Old man Hopkins. They'd be whittled down even further against Ward.
