    **** off, Ward has way too much skill for Benn and would outbox him

    Bika causes everyone problems and styles create fights.

    Benn would lose to Ward by decision

    Soooo Bika being a pressure fighter... and Benn being a relentless, vicious pressure fighter are the best comparrison in terms of who Ward has fought.... Therefore benn KO Ward round 2/3.

    Ward has never faced anyone nearly as good as benn, Benn outboxed Eubank, Benn had a war with McClennan who would possibly kill Ward in his day, there really is noway people can justify Ward, reminds me of people hyping Pavlik prior to Hopkins.:patsch:patsch

    He wasn't! He was one of the most one-dimensional fighters anyone will ever see.

    Ward's abysmal Glass Jaw gets Shattered.

    I am a huge fan of Benn's but Ward is more well rounded and Benn's power was not that huge @ SMW than it was @ MW although far from diminished. An that would be Benn's ticket if he landed one of them over hand rights. Ward wins it 8/10 times.

    At 168, he WASN'T a huge puncher. He was a good puncher, but people are acting like he channeled Julian Jackson-type power, which is rubbish.

    Despite the fact Benn was the one knocked out by a jab?

    Benn was a MASSIVE puncher as told by Eubank, the hardest puncher he faced, and as shown by Gman who had an absolute granite chin:patsch

    Benn punched himself out, it's sad when you ignore every fact possible to try legitimise a guy whose best win is over Froch:patsch

    Ward has not faced ANYONE close to Benns ability, and he has been shown up a few times. To say Ward is some type of master fighter, when he barely scraped past Bika, had a close fight with Froch(slowest smw ever?) beat a rusty, past best, blinded Kessler, and an Albanian midget... come on, keep perspective.:patsch:patsch:dead:dead

    He wasn't knocked out, actually. He clearly beat the count yet the silly Brit ref stopped it.

    Benn would take him into deep waters... And drown him!
