    Andre has feather fists, would weigh in at 200lbs max, hand speed would suffer if having to bulk up have and has even less reach than Ruiz. I can't see him successfully using that inside fight/smothering technique against a massive dude like AJ. Plus, he relies on clinching as defence way too much, probably wouldn't work against a 240+ guy like AJ.

    Stephen A is the worst commentator in boxing. I don't know anyone who does it worse and has ever been more strongly and consistently wrong. Boxing is full of idiot commentators but Stephen A is something special a unique type of moron like Trump is a unique type of president. I don't know anything about basketball or football which I think he more regularly discusses but I wouldn't be surprised if he was terrible at that part of his job too.

    It's time for Andre Ward to come out of retirement and prove such boast!

    Stephen a smith doesn’t “know” boxing. Dudes a casual fan with a voice. And I can’t think of anything more annoying than a casual boxing fan with a world stage on which to voice his opinion on the sport EXCEPT Andre frigging ***** ass Ward. It’s not only the arrogant crap that comes plopping from his **** talking arrogant mouth it’s the arrogant condescending way he says it. I agree with other posters who call him the dirtiest fighter of recent years. That’s no exaggeration. That doesn’t come from “hating” on him, that’s just an honest observation. I ain’t “hating” on him I just hate him. As should everyone. Not only the dirtiest fighter, but the most arrogant. His whole demeanor is nauseating. He’s never done what Ruiz did unless you count what he did to the drained dehydrated corpse of chad Dawson. Can you imagine ward trying to wrestle and hold n elbow n headbutt joshua? Headbutts don’t work as good when your heads hitting their chest Andre.

    Couldn't agree more, it doesn't get any worse than Stephen A. He is an embarrassment and has no business being linked to the sport of boxing.
