How suspect is his chin ? i've seen him hurt twice, once in his 2nd pro fight, and once where he was knocked down by that journeyman fighter, his name esapes me at the moment.
But is his suspect chin being blown out of proportion ? because he did take some good shots off Edison Miranda who can bang, or am i just over looking it because of his win over Mikkel Kessler ?
Wasn't he rocked badly down at Middleweight?
If you consider that he was campaigning at 175 as an Amateur, maybe he was just weak from being a bit weight drained.
Ward's chin is fine. He wan knocked down by Darnell Boone early in his career. It was his 7th fight and he was at 160. As Ward has progressed so has his craftiness. Don't expect to see him hurt often... Especially at the skill level he's fighting at now.
For the moment, I would say that his chin is a X factor; We've seen hurt but this was a while ago, how he's fighting at a higher category, perhaps he has more energy or perhaps that the bigger bangers here could flat him down. Hard to say but for the moment, we don't have enough element to judge of that.
