Official Ward VS Green SUPER SIX Poll and discussion thread

I can't stand Ward. His personality and style turn me totally cold so I will be rooting against him. I like Green, he comes across as likeable and funny. But you know, I really struggle to see him being able to rise to the occasion in this one. Ward is such a spoiler and he is going to try and shut Green out. Green seems to blow hot and cold a little too often.

In boxing there is always hope and on the night sometimes strange things happen, I hope this is one of those nights. A stunning KO by Green would be awesome, but I will just be happy with a spoiler free fight.

I'm not going to vote.

I'm not gonna pick Ward to KO him, but Green's chin is iffy as hell, he should already have a KO loss on his record (Donnie McCrory fight) so its not totally out of the realm to believe that Ward could stop him late.

Either way, Ward 7 days a week, twice on Sunday, etc. Easy fight to predict, not Calzaghe-Jones easy but still pretty easy.

I think only once... I know he went down aainst Darnell Boone... I don't think he's ever been knocked down again.

Not much talk about this fight?

Id love to see Green spark Ward, hes a much more exciting fighter to watch.

His showing against Miranda wasnt that great but didnt he have to come down alot of weight to make the fight? Didnt he also have to have an operation right after to remove some of his colon? He took Mirandas best shots well considering that and managed to drop him!

Id like to be brave and pick Green by KO but when I think logically I just cant do it. The only edge he has is in power. Ward is superior in every other way.

Green does carry the power to hurt Ward but the only chance he has is if its a shootout. Ward made Kessler fight his fight and I think he will impose his style on Green aswel. Question is can he stop him or will it drag out over 12 rounds. My feeling is the more Green wants it the more chances he will take and will have to absorb some big shots as he rushes in. Hes a brave guy and will probably make it through to hear the final bell and settle for a points defeat. He ( and every other super 6 fighter ) has no chance of getting a verdict over Ward in Oakland whether he deserves it or not. Ward on points is my pick. It will resemble Ward vs Miranda.

Also guys this fight is PPV in England. Im buying. It could be explosive, I just hope Ward doesnt stink the joint out by holding. I wana see some trade offs tonight.

If the Ward we've seen against Kessler is the real Ward, I hardly see how he could lose... which i would hope as it would put more or less everybody in the six on the same note and which would bring tons of excitement.

I think Green is a very inconsitent and leaky fighter.His career momentum has seemed to wane and can see Wards honed fluidity and speed and confidence cause his severe problems as he banks more and more on catching Ward.I dont rule out a TKO by any means for Ward.They come in all forms afterall .

Major fight night sticky and peaking of Tourney...come on fellas,we can do better than this :box3: love Bernstein and Tarver as a team on the microphone.

This fight will be as one sided as Mayweather Marquez and Pacquaio Clottey imo.

Ward will cruise to an easy win. Green will stink out the place with his negativity.

I'd like a good fight but I don't see it.

Green just looks so stiff,dry.He switches stance to righty and not throwing alot.Ward stabbing belly and keeping high guard,moving out.Mauling and holding for a minute.Ward feints him out and lets him fall in...headbutt.Long miss by Green.More watching than actual throwing.Much of a thinking round.

Nice to see Andre Ward wearing the colours of the state of Israel, obviously supporting the root he's been grafted onto as a son of God.

Pace picking up.Ward landing jab as he comes in.Green clinches and throws to body.Warned for head...Crowd breaks into Andre chant...Green warned again for head...two rights from Ward and Green answers with left...niiiiice feint from Ward and Ward catches Green with left hook as he shifts.Heating up in that 2nd round.

Rough inside more and more.Right by Ward as Green comes in...Green on ropes and takes uppercut and Green not doing alot...Ward throwing in pairs and pressing Green into ropes...Body digs from Ward,uppercut,three to body...Green neeeeds to get off and shift gears.He looks stuck and unable.Ward ties up left arm and lands big right inside as bell rings....big round Ward.Wow

Green is getting owned as badly as I thought he would.

Already he's just happy to go the distance imo.
