His ability should have him there, but his style of fighting and lack of charisma will limit him. Folks have been calling Hopkins style hard to watch for years, but his charisma and the level of his competition couldn't be ignored. Ward gonna have to sell himself as a Gentleman Bully or some shyt. nikka always seems extremely calculated and well centered but turns into a pit bull in the ring.

of course not, light skinned dudes arent supposed to win (as a whole).
Ward been a beast, being an Olympic gold medalist means he defeated the best in North America and most of the free world.

They debated his place amongst today's best, notsaying that he wasn't great. For example, you feel he's at #2 P4P but quite a few people don't feel he's top 5 P4P. I always felt that he was underrated and under appreciated.

Oh, okay, I can see that. There are more than five fighters you can legitimately argue against Ward (well, before tonight at least) - I could see Floyd, Manny, Donaire, Klitschko, Martinez, even Marquez or Bradley if you really wanted to get on the iffy side. I have, and had, Ward ahead of all of them though personally.
