    JDJ disrespected Kovalev by colluding with Ward's team to engineer his demise.

    Ward was cooked in that 2nd rd, he still wouldn't risk it on the inside, and got shafted afterwards.

    Idem for Hopkins, but he got the win.

    Kova is allergic to inside fighting.

    He should get out of the sport while his faculties are intact. His body is beginning to betray him after years of abuse and neglect, probably robbed himself out of a few years of his prime. It's a really a shame as he was a joy to watch at his best.

    agree! not to mention JDJ said he didn't even pay him the promised fee for their last camp.

    My old buddy Randall Tex Cobb sunned that up beautifully
    He said " When that bell rings the trainer goes down the steps o0ut of danger its your ass on the line" Easy to talk a good fight a lot harder to carry it out

    That's what happens when you get an amateur coache. There will be a rematch and Kovalev needs to get rid of him asap and work with a coach who knows about defense and conditioning.

    meh Harold always scores every round for Kovalev unless it's a lopsided loss.
    the first 3 all 3 could have went to alvarez. then kovalev was working WAY harder than alvarez just to win close rounds.

    "he was tired" is not an acceptable excuse. he was tired because of what alvarez did in the ring. I love how you take away from alvarez win. doesn't count because kovalev was tired, yeah, ok.

    I don't care for Jackson and it's super unpopular but looks like he was more than right the whole time.

    He was wrong to do that to Kovalev but he was disrespected by Kovalev in the first Ward fight when he was told to shut up and give him water

    If this is true, it sounds like Pavlik after the Hopkins fight.

    Kovalev’s cloth was cut from an expensive fabric that lacks stability and longevity.
