    LOL at all the people saying Ward is "small" compared to Kovalev ...so they ask for GGG. lololol.

    Kovalev is 6ft and 185lbs (against pascal).
    Ward is also 6ft and he will be no lower than 180lbs tonight. He is also longer and faster.

    This myth that Ward is too small is just nonsense.

    Ward is longer than Kovalev? Is it an optical illusion that Kovalev looks to be about the longest and rangiest light heavies in boxing?

    Another example I forgot was Vernon Forrest and Shane Mosley. Both were game and both were great and skilled fighters. But Forrest was able to use his size and looping right hand to just plaster Mosley.

    That type of power and size was not found at lightweight. It just wasn't. The bigger guy really bothered Mosley that night with his size and power.
