    I said the same thing! Why go look for milk and honey when you already live in the land of milk and honey. As far as Ward fighting in his real hometown of Oakland is concerned, he only fought 6 times there. Less home fights than, Hatton, Froch and Calzaghe. Another point of hypocracy I'd like to point out is, why is Usyk considered some great boxer and yet Mayweather is labled a runner? Mayweather had a much better KO% in his first 15 fights than Usky does. I didn't consider FM a runner and I don't consider Usyk a runner. Fools just need to stop hating! These guys come on here and make claims that make objective fans, want really good fighters like 3G, Lomachenko, Kovalev and now Usyk, to get laid out cold. Someone made a post about G hitting harder than Marciano or G beating Mike Tyson SMH. Now we get posts asking if Usyk would beat Tyson or Holyfield. The man is still at cruiser, let him get a belt and defend it a few times before we start asking if he beats some HOF'er heavies. For the record, I love an underdog and guys that try to do difficult things, so Usyk moving up to heavy would mean I'd be rooting for him all the way. Nothing better than watching the smaller guy box circles around the bigger, stronger guy, especially when the smaller guy lacks ko power, while the bigger guy can end the fight with one shot.

    Hegot stopped in 3 off stielglitz and barely got by Paul "real gone kid" Smith.

    He beat nothing but top 50 type opposition until Zurdo beat him.

    CEJ was for the IBO title last year.

    Abraham was a flop at 168.

    Usyk because he went to the other guys' backyards, but they were both terrific.

    Alot of these overzealous fans in this thread aren't really boxing fans, if you know what I mean they have a agenda and I'll leave it at that.

    And beating Abraham 3rd.

    Allan Green and Bredis are probably on about the same level. At least that is what fat French guy last weekend would say.

    Yes, I think actually Ward has 7 fights in Oakland...

    And Usyk has 8 in the Ukraine.

    None of his fights in the tourney were in the Ukraine. Only his early fight's. He travelled to all his best opponents back yard. Fact.
