    Another facet/dimension to his game that people keep forgetting. The man beats the **** out of everyone with the conventional stance, but the man also knows how to fight Southpaw and has switched multiple times in many of his fights.

    Good, he will need both stances to try and sell some tickets for this event.

    That man makes as much as GGG, i think even more and he doesn't sell that much. Oracle Arena is the best arena in the game. :yep

    If he thought that was any advantage instead of a disadvantage, pretty sure he'd fight Southpaw much more often. He only does it when he's struggling, which is going to be a horrific sight for many of you, when ggg's little brother is landing crushing combos on ward. When ward has no answer by round 3,4 you guys will keep thinking, oh ya, he can fight southpaw. Let's ignore the fact he's much less effective fighting southpaw.

    Lefties are real dangerous when fighting orthodox, that's because their jab is vicious and the hook off the jab is also great. Don't see much, if any of that top shelf sh!t from ward.

    I understand, he wanted a real opponent for really the first time. Boi, gonna backfire. This is the only legit top their talent he's ever faced. If he fought Kessler before his real injuries, that would've been a much better fight.

    One thing about Ward is that he knows exactly what he needs to do to win. It's the edge that he'll have over Barrera and Kovalev.

    Actually Andre is making the same money he did when Dan Goosen promoted him.

    It seems to me that you admire and cheer Ward like you did to Mayweather so Ward is taking Mayweather place in your heart despite being inactive for over a year, isn't he?

    BTW, Is Ward going to fight Barerra in this coming March?

    Doesn't look like he's too comfortable with southpaw to me.

    He refused to take the test against Rodriguez

    He only fights in Jokeland because he knows what he can get away with PED wise with the CSAC.

    What about that Ms Redneck? :hi:
