    My favorite Ward fights is his performance against Dawson. That was truly a master class, IMO.

    I think Bivol is the future of 175.

    Maybe to Conspiracy Theorists, but the Fight ITSELF was Entertaining...

    Not Only is Momentum STILL There, Canelo-Golovkin II Will Capitalize On It, Even if it Doesn't Happen Until September 2017...

    It's wasn't a decision that was so bad that it would take away from the excitement of the fight.

    Good decision because it’s not his desire that appears to have waned, it’s his skills. Ward looked pretty shot in his last two fights to me.

    Agreed. Looked fucking slow too. It really surprised me, because he's still early 30's. These days as people are aging better, a lot of fighters are still prime in their early 30's.

    I thought Ward looked awful in both fights, including the rematch - which is even more surprising Kovalev couldn't beat him, or even last the distance with him :D
