    SOG wanted to fight AJ years ago, how would it have gone?

    Ward is the far superior boxer but AJ too big. Weight classes are there for a reason.

    AJ is so bad that much smaller boxers think they can take him based on boxing ability.

    Ward doesn't have enough power to deter AJ and would get smocked. Ain't clinching that 250 bodybuilder either.

    Seriously? Usyk could not stop AJ in 24 rounds but Ward would? **** no. AJ stops him.

    Ward is much better than Aj and better than ALL of his opponents, but he's too small

    Yes, I'm sure nobody aj fought is close to Ward, not even Wlad

    Yep exactly this. Ward was a great boxer but he couldn't even stop some bums at 168 and 175.

    Come on now, i am sure Ward would be able to land harder punches on AJ than the ones Wlad did. After all, Ward had comparable power to Wlad and a lot more skill.

    A thump from Wlad's big toe is heavier than anything SOG is capable of mustering.:sisi1

    I can't think of a more annoying "analyst" than Ward. The guy claimed Usyk was too small for Fury after Usyk had beaten Joshua. Yet he thinks he could have fought AJ. Jesus. Shows you how decent fighters don't always make good analysts. And yes, i said decent. Not great. Take away Ward's dirty tactics and hometown judging and you have a decent fighter, not an ATG like Usyk to whom he can't hold a candle too.
