    :verysad When Hops first started his pro career he fought in a much different, more crowd pleasing style just like Andre Ward did. Hops actually charged forward like a swarmer and worked the body and punished his opponents on the inside with short power shots. It wasn't until later that he switched to the ugly and lackluster style that he fights in now.

    Ward on the other hand, prety much tried to emulate Roy Jones early on in his own career and led from the outside with powerpunches which got him into trouble, so he too had to switch it up and this time copying a more Hopkins style of ugly fighting.

    You're right though, Ward has the talent and the youth to fight in a different, more crowd pleasing style which is one criticism of him. He has the ability to switch up his style once again and be in more fan friendly fights but for whatever reason he chooses not to. It's prety annoying to tell you the truth because Hopkins crafted his style out of necessity as he got older.. Ward fights that way because he wants to even though he has all the youthful tools to fight "prettier"

    :verysad I stopped reading after that. Please hand over you Mexican card and move to Canada, sir. Don't worry, you'll blend in with those snowbacks just fine, because the only brown thing on you is your huevos, cabron.
