Video evidence of the LEGAL body shots that destroyed Kovalev

Yeah dude, but all the victim-class butthurt is bs. Ward did his job. He beat the snot out of Kovalev. It's Ward's fault if the final blow was slightly bad and the ref didn't see it because Sergey was bent over from getting his ass kicked? Did you watch the OP's video? THOSE were egregious low blows. In many, MANY fights the blow in question would have drawn no criticism or a warning. You guys should go get Al Sharpton to whine for you. Holy ****, give it a rest and pick out the next bogeyman to tout. This one is done.

 

Im not. What im telling you and you and many others seem to refuse to accept is that the fight was over before the last blow was landed. Do you not understand how utterly ridiculous you all sound blaming one single punch for the outcome of the fight while ignoring the previous 7 rounds of the fight?

 

Then we can conclude that Dirrell was ktfo before the after the bell shot. Because that last shot didn't matter?

 

Kovalev was clearly weary of low blows and it was effecting his game, same with the head butts. Look at his stance in this picture, it's a guy expecting to get hit in the balls..

I disagree that the fight was over. Weeks allowed the fight to continue until Kovalev reacted to the low blow.

Well, Kovalev was up on my card 5-1 at the time of the stoppage. And that punch is going to be blamed, because it was the punch that prompted the stoppage, simple as that.

 

And that is why ward managed to land that straight right in the 8. Dude was targeting the belt, Kov pubic area will be tenderised like a schnitzel. He is probably peeing blood for days.

 

In my experience, you guys are the ones doing all the freaking out and crying, despite your boy winning. It's pretty weird. Blizzy just had a total meltdown in the other thread, so was that Rhyno guy, and now you. I'm completely calm and debating without name calling or any of that nonsense because I have the video evidence, consistency, and common sense on my side, I don't need the theatrics and cries for my opponents to be silenced.

 

Yes, those "borderline" punches were targeting the bladder and lower abdomen.

Saildo/Loma and Ward/Kovalev are the only fights I've seen in recent memory where a fighter was allowed to make low and borderline blows into a strategy.

 

Wrong if the punch hits any part of the belt line it is a legal shot

 

You don't care about the merits of the position you've taken. You just want to win the argument. Forget I said anything. Please carry on.

 

Wow! I seriously dont know if youre trolling or simply dont get it. Can we forget about weeks for a second? When i said the fight was over making that last blow irrelevant what i mean is that KOVALEV WAS DONE! He had capitulated and it was clear as day. He made no protest when Weeks jumped in for the stoppage. Nearly every single time i have ever seen a guy feel the ref stopped the fight prematurely he shows some protest in the moment towards the ref. Kovalev did not. I simply dont see how your argument holds any weight whatsoever.

I found that just after the fight the pro Kov crowd was going on and on about low blows throughout the fight. Upon replay of the fight people realized that just about all the "low blows" werent the Kov crowd then changed the argument to "well the shots that hurt him in the last round were low". Again this was clearly disproven and once again the argument changed to "well the last shot was clearly low and thats why he lost the fight". Kov was beaten and no matter how much you want to blame Weeks he is not the reason why Kov lost. Thats the reality.

 

What argument? You just went off on a goofy rant, because this fight has made you an emotional wreck.

 

Hate to break this to you, but sometimes people sincerely see things differently than you, especially a metaphysical opinion like the "the fight was over before the last blow was landed"

You are going with the narrative that "Kovalev would have lost anyway so the low blow don't matter." I don't believe Ward was going to win for sure nor do I believe a fight should ever be ruled a technical knockout after a low blow.

As you stated and once more, I disagree.

Who says he didn't protest? For one thing, he was clearly hurt by the low blow, and showing discomfort from that. When Kov realizes the fight is stopped, he appears to exchange words with Weeks on the fan cam and it was later claimed, Kov said something like "this is boxing, I want to fight". HBO cuts to Ward as he parades around the ring and no audio is picked up.

I can only defend my position. I don't speak for an entire fanbase, man.

Weeks called the fight after a series of low punches left a fighter doubled over and holding his groin. That's the reality.

See once more this is a problem with the Pro-Low Blow crowd, you guys want nothing to do with reality. You are seriously asking me to disregard the official calling the fight. "Forget Weeks" you tell me. Why would I do that? Reality is a consideration of all things that happened, not hypothetical scenarios and personal readings of "why".
