    He got the hell rocked out of him by Edison Miranda too if memory serves me correctly. I think he's got an average chin but has covered it up with his style and his confidence.

    As people said, he tried to emulate roy jones in the beginning and got clipped. He didnt have the speed /reflexes for the wide open style and found out the hard way. Since then he tries to get off first and keep his punches straight, follow through and fall into his opponents (sometimes with heads or shoulders) , tie up and then do his work on the inside where the leverage is taken off a lot of the punches and then bang his way out so his opponents are covering up when he leaves or having the ref separate the fighters makes for a safe exit. Good lateral movement and a willingness to throw while ward is stepping out will do wonders for an opponent.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Ward did try and fight like Roy Jones but I think he found he could not continue to fight like him against better opponents and he changed the way he boxed more to the style of Hopkins. I think his chin is OK and not suspect to the degree of Khan or Audley.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    This is spot on.
