Boxing: Ward vs Stevenson...who would win?

And why?

Andre Ward.

Adonis Stevenson is a very impressive fighter, combination of speed and power. After knocking out Chad Dawson, I immediately thought he was ready for Tavoris Cloud or Bernard Hopkins. He's the second best light heavyweight behind the Bernard Hopkins in my opinion.

But I think Ward is simply too good. He beat the best fighters such as Kessler, Abraham, Froch and Dawson. I think he'll outbox and outclass Stevenson the whole fight, and cruise to the unanimous decision.

Ward UD12.

I haven't seen much of Stevenson to make a decision. I pick Ward by default.

The fight against Dawson was first fight against an elite and he only put in a minute's work. But then again, Stevenson looks like he has heavier hands than Ward therefore giving Stevenson a punchers chance.

Ward without a shadow of a doubt. Stevenson got big off the back of 1 punch and is still untested against the best fighters. Ward has proved himself with wins over kessler, froch, bika and Abraham. If ward made the move up to 175, ( which I hope he will do soon ) than Stevenson is the easy route to becoming a two weight world champ. Ward is to quick, to smart, to fast and to techniqual for Stevenson, ward by a wide UD.

Btw, would really like to see ward face the winner of Cleverly vs Kovalev at light heavy. They say styles make fights! Whoever wins out of them two, against ward it would be a cracking fight!

Ward easily. Stevenson has power but does not have the movement and ability that Ward does. Ward would use his movement to keep out of Stevenson's way, then expertly counter punch, using his speed to consistently beat Stevenson to the punch.

Stevenson has power, so he has a chance but Ward is a very skilled boxer, master of his craft. All Stevenson has done is land one punch that happened to knock Dawson out. That's doesn't show anything except he has power.

I don't know the other bum but Ward

And why?
