I watched the ref allow Alexis Arguello to be beaten to an inch from death, but Kov gets stopped?

I feel ya, but I think he was in the process of stepping in anyway. Even a slow motion replay can't tell us for sure because it might have already been processed in his mind a good deal earlier than we see his reaction. Hard to say.

No Weeks watched and waited about half a second before calling the fight. Ward pivoted to his right before landing the last couple punches so he had clear view of where they were landing. It was just a terrible call.

 

Lol so Ward has been beating your heroes for almost a decade now. You must be shitting your pants now, whenever someone you like comes near to Ward lol.

The****? Lol. What kind of sentence is this? Okay you like your men macho. You love to serve your master and obey them in the bed. You always wish you was the one who cheer for Froch in ring side with your ***** voice instead of his wife right? You would also make Froch happy after his lost to Ward and give yourself to him in the bed.

LOLOL. You dont know **** about boxing.

 

Weeks was on the take. The previous ball shots that were allowed is evidence.

 

I'm not touching on the topic of Pryor/Arguello, but the stoppage of Kovalev was shitty
whether you think he was on the way out or not (I personally do), but
it was a very bad stoppage.

I'll use another one of Weeks fights from a few years back as an example.
Jeff Lacy v Rubin Williams, the last 2 rounds of that fight, Jeff beat Rubin
from pillar to post along the ropes and there was almost no return fire, Rubin could barely
stand up yet Weeks didn't stop the fight until an entire round after. Yet, with Kovalev who was in some distress, the plug was rapidly pulled. Weeks dropped the ball on this one, big time.

 

You idiots need glasses the camera doesn't lie

 

Cameras don't lie but human interpretations stray.

 

I know. I saw the side view of the inside arena footage.

 

Not like it mattered. Kovalev was done.

 

Wrong!
A fighter doesn't just stop when he hits a fighter with a clean legit body shot.
Ward stopped and looked at Weeks both in the 7th and then again in the 8th, but Weeks had to convince Ward on to continue as if to say, "go go son, I'm giving you an opportunity here!" LOL!

Whether people want to argue one way or the other if they were low or not, to me they looked a little low, way at the bottom of the beltline, right at that lower line and certainly below the belly button who some have said is where the line should be at. Shots that have landed higher than the one's Ward landed on Kovalev I've seen called low by refs.

In any regards, Kovalev bending over at the ending is what caused Tony Weeks to stop the fight and it was those 3 obvious low blows that caused him to bend over like that.

I have to also add that there are many here that say that the low blows had nothing to do with the right hand that Ward caught Kovalev with. I've heard that in the Spanish boxing program golpe a golpe with Juan Manuel Marquez, but I'm thinking, how can you say that the shots in the 7th and 8th could have been called low, but then say those shots had nothing to do with Kovalev getting stunned and hurt by that right hand, when its those types of shots that bring a fighters guard down for the other to be able to land a better cleaner shot upstairs.

I'll say this much, I Ward doesn't land those two shots bordering that could have been called low, Ward then doesn't have the opening to land with that right hand he hurt Kovalev with.
Its pretty simple logic here, doesn't take a boxing Einstein to figure that out.

 

Which is why Ward wanted his lenient and biased judges and referee. Its a no brainer.

 

You sport an appropriate Avatar for someone to defend a cheat!

 

insofar as the Arguello beating, no one needs to be taking that kind of abuse, unless it's 'when in Rome day'.
