I'd like to see the punch stats numbers on the ref.

Ward nailed it on Rodriquez. Edwin knew what his role was here, and accepted it
I love boxing, but I know what I like, and I have seldom enjoyed an Andre Ward fight. This had all the Ward trademarks. Hugging, butting, absurd nickname and attempts at cheating. Take away those and I would like him more.
The ref took a glancing left hook impressively.![]()
To be fair to Miles, Ward fights can be quite ugly. They usually have plenty of clinching and mauling. Same as Hopkins... maybe not quite as much. Tonight he definitely showed his superiority over Rodriguez. But it wasn't pretty, and not all of it was Rodriguez's fault. There was plenty of holding by Ward... most of it sneaky and out of sight of the ref. The holding down of the head.... the grappling. And then Ward has the nerve to complain about Rodriguez's tactics. C'mon man. Anyway, it was entertaining enough. At least Rodriguez kept trying to get back in the fight. He just didn't belong there.
Nice. I like those "I know you are but what am I" responses. The guy has incredible feet, incredible defense, uses his eyes like Floyd does and rarely if ever gets hit cleanly. He has incredible punch selection, a mule kick for a jab and rarely misses a punch. Other then that he's pretty regular.
Classy send from Lampley for producer
I didn't think Ward was that dirty at all tonightHis footwork and radar are tremendous. The other guy only came to spoil and try to make it a street fight, and he was tough as nails.
Willie Nelson out of the Macklin fight ? Honestly a good move for Willie
Am I supposed to say "Oh, I love the grappling, it stimulates me. Also, please keep on attempting to break the rules and get disqualified and most certainly headbutt the other guy at the end to put the icing on the cake". Forgive me for not being on the point of orgasm like some other people.
I couldn't give a hoot if anyone agrees with me, I follow my path. My point of view is as valid as anyone's and some just don't like that I would be mean to the self annointed, American SOG, who also happens to be the dirtiest man in boxing. He's a cheat.
My posts are not always negative, but they are when they talk about negative things. Ward is a negative boxer.
Ward has an incredible jab and as others have said he is on the money with the combos. Good tune up fight for him. Thank God for the ref or that could've been a stinker. He should do the next Wlad fight.
