After essentially admitting (he will never outright admit) that he lost the Kovalev fight my respect for him has really gone up. I always recognized him as a great fighter anyways.
Every interview where he delved into the fight he seemed to acknowledge that a Draw would have been fair for the history books (something many boxing fans struggle to do).
He has basically said that a loss would have been fine as well. He is just not happy about it being called a robbery.
First Kov fight was the clear definition of robbery. I was surprised Kov gave him a boxing lesson. Thought ward was the better boxier before the fight. Water under the bridge. One thing is certain, Andre Ward is his own biggest fan. He thinks very highly of himself and makes sure to let the world know every time he speaks.
Ward is more savvy than Froch in what he says but believe you me the guy still has a superstar ego. Rogan is a twat
Bet the idiot licked his lips at least 100 times in the interview. I hope Rogan expressed his amazement of Lomachenko to him too. Just to see how bothered ward gets. “Rigo... you a master. I gotchu on da top of my pfp list.” After rigo got embarrassed... “Uhhh.. I mean.. Loma did what he had to do.” Lol
I keep seeing people say draw in kovalev 1 How? 6-6 is 114-113 kov 7-5 ward is 114-113 ward 7-5 kov is 115-112 kov How do you get a draw?
So far I’ve watched 3 boxers on jre and I’ve been disappointed with all of them, I think it’s down to Joe’s lack of passion for the sport, Tyson Fury, Bud and Andre Ward all disappointing.
