Andre Ward's ultimate smart move was to retire on top with his health intact.

[gabrieldiaz]

Very good breakdown of one of my favorite boxers of all time. Ward was always very good at taking away his opponent's best weapon. In most cases, he would shut his opponent's offense down completely. A master of all ranges, he would always look to work at the opponent's least effective range. Which would naturally take away a lot of their offense because most fighters need to be at their preferred range in order to produce their best offensive output. Good stuff brother

Highly cerebral fighter 🧠 his adjustment game was crazy could easily transition from finesse to brutal tactics in a fight. Also loved his dirty boxing always seemed to slowly take the confidence out of his op’s . Him verzuz b hop would’ve been interesting they had a lot of similarities with their approach

[musak.]

Please keep these studies coming! High level boxers deserve to be praised!!💪🏿💪🏿

Ward is definitely one of the ATG'S of the last 20 years.

[legendofawwsheet]

Wards a genius and such a real humble guy i remember i met him in cali a few years back as a contractor and he is legitimately one of the most humble and genuine athletes you'll ever meet which is crazy when you think of his talent, iq, and pedigree. Another dope one boxing gems much love champ.

[randyv]

Ward, Crawford and Floyd. Kings of adjustment.

[Dwaylynn]

such a great video. i don't know the technicalities of boxing like that but the way you broke it down made a lot of sense to me. Good work.

[sergiosantos]

Another dope episode. This channel is in my top 3 of all of you tube. The knowledge dropped in these vids. is highly likely the best or near the most elite pugilistic science theory in all of media available via this platform. I can't wait for the next!

[pharoahblaque]

He don't get mention enough. Love the bro as a fighter and as a person. Big foundmentals

[dannanrik]

Another Great one bro!! 👌 Excellent breakdown

[thedhive]

Thank you for giving Andre Ward the respect he deserves. GGG ran away from this man and they had GGG ranked above andre ward p4p for absolutely no reason. Froch, prime Kovalev, Barrera, prime Dawson, and Kessler are better than literally everyone GGG fought.

Gems I hate the fact the Ward isnt appreciated the way he should be and held in higher regard. This 168lber regrets he didn’t fight AJ before retiring. A true statesman of our sport. Ward vs Krusher 1 was some of the best boxing of a person that knows what he’s watching will ever see

[firellparker]

SOG, one of the best technicians the sport has seen, you should do a tim bradley one as homage

[barryirvingj]

One of my Top 5 favorite fighters of all time in Boxing (#3)👊👊🥊🥊

[tlen]

One of the greatest of his generation! He is so flexible to many different styles and strengths that he can adapt to any situation. Many fans will say he didn't fight many great opposition.... Well truth be told it's not about how many HOF you fight it's about how well you perform in your bouts, how dominant of a performance do you put up?
By doing so real analysts and fans can see how the fight would actually go if the other so called "greats" had faced him. In Andre's case you can easily say he is one of the top 5 Super Middleweights and Lightheavyweights of all time

[jeffhardyy]

Good video man the beat you chose was fire

[raneyjr]

Andre Ward is one of my all time favs. He’s like a mash up of Roy and Floyd. When I watched him dismantle Froch (a pretty dangerous fighter at the time) with such ease, I was hooked. It’s not just having a plan (fighting in close), it’s the flawless execution.
