Andre ward the next superstar?

[MMASUX]

i was watching some of this kids fights and he's got talent, i personally think he's the next b hop of boxing, i would love to see him in a fight against bute eventually. Thoughts?

Ward is very good and he has a solid fanbase in Oakland. The problem I see with him though is that his style doesn't appeal to the average fight fan because it is a very Bhopesque, hit and hold, grapple, kind of style. Not always good viewing. Although Ward always wins, he isn't stopping people with flashy knockdowns ever. He also fights dirty.

I agree completely. He's very talented, but his style is not the most fun to watch for the casual boxing fan. He's also not a trash talker, so he can't sell fights with his mouth either. Very talented, but his style and lack of trash talk is what i think will keep him from being a superstar like Floyd, Manny, Sergio Martinez etc.
