    If i was Kovalev i would be complaining about the high blow since that is the one that had him all stupid.

    They were on the belt, even if low they weren't on the balls so it had nothing to do with it. Kovalev was done and he pretty much quit.

    My bad Cafe for going at you earlier this year. Was just too used to the likes of Kevin Willis, Todd, etc that I was definitely unfair with you. I just considered you one of those most fair on the pro-ee side, and you proved me wrong here.

    I 100% agree with you that Kov was done, but the ref was definitely incompetent too. That was in my opinion a godawful stoppage and it robbed Ward a chance from getting a non-controversial stoppage.

    Anyone attempting to claim they weren't repeatedly low blows is just a god damn liar and should clearly check themselves in to a mental institute.

    The belt line is low, lower than the belt line is very low - the cup extends around the pelvic area and each of those shots would have caused the cup to reverberate.

    It's clear to see how many of you haven't boxed a single day in your life, because the fact that there is even an argument at this point around what repeatedly being hit in the groin does to a fighter is beyond me.

    Yeah. We all know these guys were going to find whatever they could to discredit Ward yet again.

    Yeah, the referee in the fight making a post fight apology, admitting the shots were low and that he shouldn't have stopped the fight, and we're all discrediting Ward.

    You're either blind, stupid or mentally disabled, I don't know which it is, but it's one of those three things if you can't even admit what the freaking referee who stopped the fight was man enough to admit afterward.

    I think the low blows were part of Ward's pla to slow Kovalev down He did it several times.

    Listen you dummy, that is the real Weeks, look at the history of the Twitter page, look at how many photos are taken that only he would have access to.

    The only thing clear here is that you have trouble following instructions. At the begining of the fight the referee gave instructions on what would be allowed and what would be considered low. And he clearly points at the middle of the belt as allowable.

    Looked at the photos, they were all TV screencaps, or photos that are clearly accessible to the public.
    What photos exactly would he only have access to? This is actually comical that you're quoting an unverified twitter page that has posts like #thankalhaymon and then using it as a reliable source.
