    First learn how to read, then talk about rules.

    What are you talking about? Kovalev was looking to have recovered from that right hand until the series of low shots sunk him in that corner. Each of Ward's shots was lower than the other.

    To me Kovalev was about to survive the round when the low shots came and Weeks then stopped it.

    Few people are denying the last punch, where it's clearly low. The problem is that throughout the rest of the fight they were not low. Kovalev was already hunched over so its kind of hard not to hit his groin. I think Ward should've thrown headshots at that point, didn't look intentional to me. Ward even stopped and looked to the ref after LEGAL body blows earlier in the fight.

    There is good cause to doubt your claim.

    There were numerous punches on the belt and below it. A fighter cant be allowed to target the borderline area, because its an unfair advantage, its a grey area and the opponent has to be mindful of fouls and legal punches If a fighter keeps going that low, the official also has to be extra alert, thats why borderline punches should result in warnings and be discouraged. Punches should target the exposed stomach, not the borderline of the trunks and belt...

    As for the last punch, it was a foul, and to stop the fight on a foul and rule a TKO in that way is unpresidented. Hence, controversy.

    Man get your "run-on" sentence cry baby ass outta here with this **** lmao. The ref clearly told both guys about their belt line and what is a legal punch. This has been going on for more than a century lol. If your trunks are a little bit high or high...the belt line is legal. Kov is a ***** for this.

    No gray area. Weeks mae it clear to BOTH fighters in the locker and in the ring where the punch was legal, and clearly we have ALL seen Weeks pointing at the belt.

    As long as the glove lands on the belt it is a legal punch.

    If Kovalev wants to fight Ward again he will have to follow him around and earn his shot.

    I think he looked terrible the whole way. Retreating, dropping his hands. It wasn't so much that he was very hurt but that he was spent and couldn't defend himself that well. The first shot was on the belt and then the other two were low, but at that point Kovalev was crouching obscuring the view in a defenseless position.

    Right, because as a Ward fan I can actually admit that the low blows by Ward began in the 2nd round and continued until the final flurry of shots, 3 out of the 4 of which were low blows. The clinching, holding, low blows, elbows? All illegal and not one more than the other.
