    Ward is an exceptional fighter, who is the best at the weight but people do not realise how good he is. He will beat Froch, Bute and then become a light heavy champ.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    They have a different type of work rate. Glen Johnson has the obvious workrate where he throws quite a few punches, and he is always coming forward. Andre Ward has a workrate, where he always is in position to attack and he is always moving to gain an advantage over an opponent, not everyone sees his level of craft, but he is always maneuvering tactically to gain an advantage over his opponent, and people might not see this as work rate, but forcing your opponent to always adjust and try and catch up is really draining on an opponent as well, not to mention the fact that he has very fast feet, and he gets in so quickly that guys can't usually respond the way they would like to defensively. THere are guys who are always throwing punches, then there are guys who even when they don't punch are always forcing their opponent into an awkward position, and making their opponent feel uncomfortable about the range/angle/etc. I think the second is far more effective for the amount of energy required and its a much higher level of boxing.

    Good post Taeth, think that's about dead on. Johnson has the kind of ouput that a good counter puncher can use against him, Ward is very cerebral and crafty, I think he's going to be really hard to beat.
