    Tony Weeks knows whats up. He clearly saw they were belt line shots, perfectly legal.

    I swear some of Ward's haters act as if this was a replay of Bowe-Golota!

    :lol:

    Almost a year later and people like you are still losing sleep. Let it go the man is retired and he will forever own Kovalev.

    So I hear Ward is up to 199? Comeback at cruiserweight? Or a future showdown with Deontay?

    I like Ward but, how is there a discussion to be had here? The only answer to this thread, is.... Yes. Period.

    Seriously lol. In my almost 16 years posting here I have NEVER seen fans cry so much about belt line shots. The closest thing that comes to mind is ME complaining about Trinidad low blowing Vargas, now those were real lowblows, not those pansy ass belt lines Kovalev fans keep bringing up.

    This is a dumb thread, period. The last punch if it was indeed low, which is highly questionable, was Kovalev's fault for bending over after the two body shots that preceded the last punch.

    :lol: um... there is no IF the last punch was low. There is only, yes.... the last punch was low.


    Wards last punch clearly landed on the 'B' on Kovas trunks. Its pretty absurd to think that the B on his trunks was somehow naturally at his natural beltline. The punch was low.

    'highly questionable' :lol:

    Your post makes little sense.

    If you throw a 'body shot' and it catches a falling opponent low, it must have been a really low blow to start with.


    Andre's SMW legacy was stellar but his entire LHW resume consists of wins over two unranked LHWs, a fairly clear loss due to 'home cooking,' and a stoppage that resulted from a clear low blow, the coup de grace in a series of low blows.

    Abosolutely NOT. None of those shots were low, none. There is absolutely 0 evidence to show any low blows, all we saw were clean body shots and shots on the belt because he was bending over due to the body damage.
