Re: Andre Ward Similar to Roy jones?
no nothing like each other, you can see ward tries thou, i am sure he looked up to roy, he looks way more methodical, i would say a mix between jones and hopkins, what i dont like is when they say roy had gifts, it wasnt result of some "gift", hes athletic ability was just pure hard work

I think Ward's style is very smart. Because his style isn't so reliant on his quickness speed and physical speed etc, he fights a veterans style and he isn't even old yet. Which makes it more effective then the people who use it because it's all they can do with their age, he uses it with what he already has and it's very effective. But he has shown that he can fight on the outside too and pot shot people.

Yes indeed, if he beats Dirrel, I can see going him on to win for a long time en route to huge fight aginst Chad Dawson @ LHW....
