He is just so inconsistent. That jab vanished for several rounds and he just covered up. The man is a frustrating fighter to watch. The blueprint has been laid out and Ward is just following the method.Quote:

I really dont understand why Ward would switch stance at this point...is he bored or what because he was dominating in orthodox stance.
AA is looking completely gassed. I don't think Ward has the power to KO him, but it might be stopped the way AA is looking.
Dang, all I wanted is for the Super 6 to be competitive and AA has just closed up shop....damn shame.
I guess we'll see Ward-Froch for the finale then unless Johnson pulls off the upset and then I guess its Ward-Kessler.
Abraham didn't face great competition at 160. He didn't beat one elite fighter. At 168 he is facing bigger guys that he can't walk through their shots and Froch, Ward, etc... are elite boxers with size and speed.Quote:

Ha, you should dude. I picked Ward to get smoked :-X and Froch has impressed (me). Unfortunately, I think he mugs Johnson badly. Ward is just a smart guy, full of guile!Quote:

119-109 Ward
Ugh, knew the fight was going to be boring most likely, but the first 4 rounds were a tease....AA completely went to shit after the 4th. He really needs to relearn how to box, or just retire. Anyone with any type of boxing skill just completely outclasses him.
If only fights were fifteen rounds, the final three would never be dull with AA. He always looks as though he can land that punch as his opponent tires. It's just a shame that he doesn't try to win any of the other rounds. I thought he won that final round.
Still, very good performance from Ward and it wasn't all that dirty. I wish commentators wouldn't compliment a fighter in his ability to hold though.
Ward looked a little bit better I don't blame him for the fight sucking, it was more of AA just being a turtle and having no offense.

yeah I think Ward is top 5 p4p right now right behind Martinez and Donaire. He just looks so awkward and hard to beat. He proved he can cope with adversity too.
