    If it is a style like Hatton, at least it's Hatton on his best night. This was kind of like Hatton vs Tszyu and I can live with that.

    He's a brilliant fighter though, streets ahead of Ricky.

    in his defense Green was the one holding on while on the ropes, but i agree, too much hugging for my liking, but the way he walked down Green and how he (Green) didn't even try to throw back basically shows he should be in the tourey

    Oh I agree his style is very effective but he is like watching paint dry, can't stand his style.

    Green was the one holding the most, Ward's leading with his head is the biggest rule bending thing he does.

    I blame Green more that though. He was absolutely as negative as I knew he would be. Ward fought for every minute of every round and completely dominated Green.

    i think put against the right guy though, and Ward will stand and fight, he tried to get Green out with big shots, just wasn't able to get the job done

    Ward is the ugliest fighter in the world today, we will never see him in a fun fight until he gets knocked out.

    Tarver is now talking about moving up to HW, Adamek wrecks him in horrible fashion

    I hate fighters that throw then hold, usually refs let them get away with that shit. Its just a really cheap style, someone needs to bite his ear off or something.

    Ward always keeps one hand free, if he's dirty it's what he does with the head like OumaFan said. Plus like it was said, Green was the one lost on the inside doing that hugging. It's not like he's Wlad Klitschko in there and holding everytime a guy gets within 5 feet of him, you're allowed to do what he did in the ring tonight which is why I'm glad Raul Caiz Sr. was reffing the fight. That was cool.

    It looks like we may have a new Hopkins to suffer for the next decade with these type of fights. Successful and we can respect his achievements but it is really awful to watch. When they compared him to Roy Jones it made me style cuz I think he is more like a Ricky Hatton without power.

    I dont think he would get away with his tactcis anywhere else but Oakland. He leads with his head and gets up so close and spoils and cuz he has no power you know its going to be 12 rounds. Not sure im gonna buy another Ward PPV unless im a fan of teh guy in the other corner. Green was a disgrace and as we thought he should have never been in this tourny.

    Haha. Hatton style. He's better than that. But that was a truly awful fight to watch, as was the kessler fight. I truly hope Dirrell puts a beating on Ward.....

    Ward is a talented boxer with a couple of page stolen about John Ruiz and Hopkins about the grappling style. Definitely not my cup.
