The_budweiser Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Whenever “Irish” Micky Ward is announced at fights, he usually receives the largest ovation from his army of adoring fans. Everybody in boxing – boxers, promoters, managers, trainers, media, etc. – respect the tough Irish American from Lowell, Massachusetts, for his guts, attitude, and dedication to his craft. Never has a negative comment come out of his mouth about an opponent of fellow boxer. He never trashed talked and showed nothing but the utmost respect for his “boxing brothers.” Ward simply wasn’t made that way and that’s why he is clearly one of boxing’s most beloved warriors. https://www.ringnews24.com/2020/10/03/irish-micky-ward-one-of-boxings-most-beloved-ring-warriors/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 I got no memories because I didn't follow him while he was boxing but his victory over Alfonso Sanchez was very special. To come back after such punishment and just land one punch to win was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
