    Not really a fan of either; Ward's style is boring and Kovey seems like a not-too-bright *****, but they can both fight.

    Nice to read some mature replies on here for once lol

    I respect all the people who may dislike one fighter, but still give credit to the other fighter where its due and try not to let their bias skew their judgements. When people come from this point of view, you can debate with them without taking things personally and still have mutual respect.

    I like both guys. Thought Kovalev won first fight. Looking forward to this one. Both have great skills and unlike many top fighters they face the best available opposition.
    I do find Kovalev fights more exciting.

    I'm a fan of both, Before the fight I thought Kovalev was p4p number
    1 and Ward number. I went into the fight thinking Kovalev would
    win but Ward proved me wrong. With what I saw I believe Ward
    will win more convincingly but still see no one in the weight class
    beating either of them.

    Thumbs up here - very similar view, I enjoy both fighters and followed both fighters fights before each others paths crossed, and will continue to follow each after the resolution.

    I enjoy both fighters and viewed their fight together last year as the most significant in that year - so I traveled to vegas to watch it live, the only fight I've watched live.

    Big Pimp I also like both but I lean more towards Krusher just because of his mystic and killer KO approach
    Ward gets so much hate and from people who have never even held a 60 second conversation with the man...SMH

    Yeah and Krusher sort of lost a point with me by blaming the judges after the first fight. I would not disrespect either guy but you should not cry foul on judges just because you failed to deliver a KO and got out-classed by a razor-thin hair IMO

    Yes, fan of both. It was helpful to see Ward on 24/7 acknowledging that the questions from the first match have to be resolved,

    Not a fan of Ward's style of fighting although I thought he was near flawless against Barrera and Froch, but most of his fights are ugly and that's not what imo anyway a representation of a P4P number 1 fighter.

    Not a fan of Ward, he just rubs me up the wrong way very arrogant.

    Kovalev I prefer, more exciting to watch and I had him winning 116-111 outboxed the boxer imo.
