    Chavez Sr. did cocaine his whole career and wasn't the wreck that some of these new guys are.

    So we have a conglomerate of excuses for Kovalev now. Was he suicidal as well like Tyson Fury?

    So, moral of the story is Ward giving him a few gonadal spankings was, in the final analysis, the best thing ever to happen to him?

    It does all seem a bit too much and dramatic. Like, why can't it just be a sport, you win some you lose some, no excuses? But whatever works for him, just good to have one of the best at his best. The diet changes seem pretty common sense, or more like realising his old habits like avoiding water were stupid.
