Andre Ward- better than Floyd Mayweather?

[Ron Swanson]

The equal point in Floyd's career is the Ricky Hatton fight(fall of 30 years with similar birthdays)

By then Floyd was a 4 division champion with at least 4 HOFers on his resume and many others that would be considered if anyone on Wards resume is worthy of consideration.

Andre Ward would tell you this topic is absurd.

Who were the 4 HOFers? Oscar was one, but you have to admit he was WELL past his prime. Do you mean Gatti and Chico?? Chico was a great win, but even Floyd admitted Gatti was a C fighter. Anyways, Floyd has fought better competition overall, as he is the biggest name in the sport. That being said, at similar points in their careers I feel that Ward has beaten better competition. I don't think he is as gifted as Floyd, I think both are equally skilled, but I feel that Ward is a little tougher, and little more willing to go to war. There is no comparison between the two at this point, because after Hatton Floyd beat some good competition. The worst thing for Ward is that I don't see anyone for him to challenge himself against. Maybe if Kov or Stevenson unify and prove to be legit and GGG keeps winning and moves up. Other than that, there just isn't the competition at 168-175, basically because he has beaten everyone.

And you're leaving out Hatton. There are others that deserve consideration as well in JLC x2, Genaro Hernandez, to me Jesus Chavez is on par with Wards opponents and what about Carlos Hernandez, and Carlos Rios, Zab Judah, Angel Manfredy, Carlos Gerena, Gregarious Vargas. You want to dismiss Sharmba and that's fine he wasn't great and he was diminished but he was a good fighter and Baldy for all the crap we give him was a good fighter at the time as well. I could list at least 4 more fighters better than Allen Green but he props Ward up? I'm sorry man but that's lunacy
