Abraham - Ward Fight Thread

[No Contest]

You cant blame Ward for that fight ending up mildly boring, it was Abrahams turtle style. He's like Winky without the jab. Spicoli what do you mean pulling a Dirrell? What he had 1 fight against Curtis Stevens that was boring, all his other fights have been exciting fights. I don't get that reference at all. Ward has in the past been boring due to holding too much and pretty much slowing the pace down with mauling tactics.

I think Dirrell has some nice backfoot skill, sharp hands but I see a difference for the most part in that Ward tends to accelerate an advantage and turns on the work, presses and makes it pretty descisive. For me Dirrell mostly is far more defensive minded and almost fights as an almost preservationist. I think Ward does a great job at sizing up and shifting gears in a pace.
