    everybodys having a go at the way he fought green they act like he always fights this way he fought different against kessler and he needed to bully green like this to stop him becoming the bully im actually really impressed with this guy the way he can change from fight to fight round to round the right adjustments and that hes willing to fight ugly shows that he is a true winner people criticise the likes of cotto for headbutting and risking losing a point but you need this attitude you need to win do whatever it takes anyone who has been in the ring will agree with me

    I dislike Ward because he's boring, has little killer instinct, moderate power at best, and is content going to into a fight with the idea that it's ok to win on points. I like aggressive guys who want to destroy the other man in front of them.

    Sort of agree with you there brother! Ward is actually a creationist, meaning that he takes the book of Genesis literally and rejects science and evolution completely. Such beliefs in 2010 are very hard for me to respect, but to each his own i guess.

    As a fighter tough, i see little in Ward to hate on. Again, to each his own, but the guy is as complete as a fighter could be without having a knockout punch and works as hard as any fighter out there.

    I like the guy both as a person and a fighter. Everybody has a fight or two that's not a barnburner, that's how I see last weekend.

    BTW, the Bible clearly states that God's time is not the same as man's time, so the 6 day figure in Genesis is not neccesarily a literal 6 24 hour, man time period. Christians aren't as dumb as the media makes us out to be.

    This is not even close to what I am talking about. I'm talking about claiming to be super Christian, and then fighting like Mustofa Hamsho.

    I hate Ward because of his fans. I respect his skills and intelligence in the ring, but I will always hate a boxer who has got such disrespectful fans.

    There's a thread on this ****.

    And because he uses his big head to cut people.

    Otherwise he's nice but I personally don't feel for him.

    Not all science
    "Ward said he used a $4,000 IHT unit from Conte for "about 10 or 11" of Conte's prescribed 15 daily treatments"
