    Marquez, Morales, Barrera are all technical fighters. Ward isn't that technical. He clinches way too much and is more of a talented spoiler than a technical boxer.

    Rigo is technical as hell though I'll say that but doesn't throw enough combinations to really entertain me. That's a personal taste thing though.

      Also, Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson was a highly technical but very entertaining fighter. You can box and **** at the same time and be entertaining and skillful.

        Ward is very tech good but don't have the athletism that other fighters like ssl,May but to say he is not a good tech I just don't see it.But whatever everyone has their opinion.

          He has or had excellent athleticism and skills but his fights would always turn into ugly foul filled clinch fests. Clinching was a constant throughout the whole fight and throw in headbutts, elbows, low blows etc; and they became horror shows.

              Don't agree at all.He was also a good inside fighter(because his lack of athleticism and top level speed).But I can see we are very far apart on this so lets just agree to disagree and maybe find common ground on other subject.

                there we found one! I also think Too Sharp was very good tech and like a lot of other tech fighters I found him exciting.

                  What I don't understand is you said Mosley is a great win for Mayweather but Barrera wasn't for Marquez because you said 5 and a half years is a longer time than 7 years and never answered the questions following that and that a 38 year old 16 months inactive Mosley is a better fighter than a prime Pacquaio.
