    Vitali Klitschko has the highest KO ratio of any heavyweight champion in history.

    Andre Ward has no stoppage wins in his past 5 fights and only ONE in his past 8 - against Shelby Pudwill!

    is Andre Ward more exciting because he's an American even though in reality he's boring, or is Vitali more exciting because of his "seek and destroy" style?

    I guess this thread is meant as a joke...

    Vitali is more exciting to watch by a land mile...

    Vitali is more exciting because He gets the knockout (eventually). Andre Ward is a featherfisted disgrace(joke) but his very effective defensive style although masterful is boring to watch from a laymans point of view because he doesn't get hit much and wins fights by total shutout. Vitali wins by shutout, but at least knocks them out before everyone falls asleep.

    To be honest, at cruiserweight Haye was much more exciting than Andre Ward.

    Vitali is awkward, ungainly & horrible to watch.

    Ward is a fantastic technical boxer, with great balance & timing.

    Both are very hard to beat but p4p Ward is far, far better & in a better division.

    Agreed - as good as Ward is - he's boring to watch whereas Vitali usually tries to wear down and ko his opponent.

    I voted for Ward.. And u wonder why..

    Well.. simple.. I cant imagin Ward loosing, and I cant predict what style he will fight in his next match. So everytime I see Ward figtht I cant wait to see what style he will use. If u really love boxing as an "art", U would choose Ward. I belive Ward can make a fighter like Dawson look like Kessler. Ward owned several diffrerent boxing styles allrdy.

    Kessler A veru good jabber with good movement and preassure.

    Froch A fighter with a homemade boxin style.

    AA, A tank and precise KO champ

    Bika, good close range fighter


    Ward used diffrerent tacs vs every fighter. What impressed me the most with Ward was:

    After the fights before facing Froch, I thought Ward had limited range boxing skills. But he owned Froch and Froch have 10 inces more range than Ward.

    I enjoy watching both although i prefer Vitali.
    Vitali doesnt have to maul or foul and he usually gets the KO that edges him for me.
