Is there a gif where Ward aint clinching after throwing a punch? I find it ok to clinch when you are hurt, but hugging not stop even against bums like Green and Bika? Nah...

My problem with GGG threads is you rarely see skill breakdowns. It's always business BS. I should make one shouldn't I?
Re Ward. For me, he has to prove himself at 175 before I see him as a threat to Kovalev. It;s going to be interesting to see how he does against Barrera.

Saw that video months ago, it was interesting seeing him use many of the old timers' moves. He got into Kessler's head (literally and figuratively) and exposed Froch's lack of technical skill. Froch ate a LOT of straight shots in that fight.
I'm very excited for Ward-Kovalev. I think Kov is all types of wrong for Ward. Kovalev's stance and his propensity for throwing a flying jab should give Ward some problems. I also think there's a good chance Ward can be caught the same way Kovalev caught Hopkins on the clinch. At 175 and being 32, Ward will be slower than he was at 168 and 27. If he relies on the jab-clinch, I can see Kovalev doing this to him:

He is nothing special, just had an extremely overrated tournament run where he beat a bunch of crap fighters who are nowhere to be heard from today. Bika, Green, Kessler, Abraham... all gatekeepers. And his best win was Froch who is extremely overrated IMO, very robotic and stiff. Even this kid whose name I forgot rocked him hard lol.
Ward is a C level fighter. A fake christian, a lying coward. To me the toilet in my bathroom is worth more than his life, that's how highly I think of him.

Ward was supposed to lose to Kessler who along with Abraham was one of the favorites to win the Super 6. Calzaghe got plenty of credit for that win.
