I do absolutely not like Ward . Glad he retired . But this is just a silly statement . Ward fought way better opposition .
Second Ward fight and the first Alvarez fight set back Kovalev. Right now GGG's career is better. But Kovalev can still go for a unification and turn the tide. GGG doesn't have many options forward.
Hard to say. Kovalev has fought better guys and that means something. Probably GGG, but this is tough.
Top 5 wins 1. Ward 2. Hopkins 3. Pascal 4. Alvarez 5. Cleverly 2 losses 1. Canelo 2. Jacobs 3. Lemieux 4. Geale 5. Murray 0 losses Kovalev has had narrowly the better career imo.
Don’t like Kov but if you campare performances this has to be Kovalev.. He beat Ward in the 1st fight way more convincing than I think GGG beat Nelo in the first fight.. Also Alvarez Hopkins Pascal Chilemba Cleverly is much better than Geale and a 147 Brook
Kovalev's career is more respectable. Golovkin fought chumps for far too long, and ducked top level challenges when they were available.
