    In other words you got perpetuating a fraud and don't want to answer for it. Why do you have to rely on a heavily edited video, and I showed the full clip? It's obvious who is posting the garbage here.

    Perry, I may be a nothing, but can you be an adult and retract your statement based off a bull**** video.


    Kov: I did not get knocked down by any punches, an illegal!
    Max: You are saying you were never hurt to the body until the final round?
    Kov: Yeah. Only the low blow. Only the low blow!
    Max: This is the end, tell us what you see.
    Kov: Low blow! And I felt it this time.
    Kov: Again! Another one!
    Max: (cuts him off and asks about the right hand 30 seconds before, if he felt Ward's power)
    Kov: I didn't hurt like that, I didn't go down, it was a low blow! It was a low one.
    Max: It was below the belt! But looked borderline to me. Was it all the way low, or a borderline low?
    Kov: (stutters and tries to follow Max's hand gestures) Uh uh... low (gets confused and looks to the translator) speaks Russian briefly.
    Translator: On the border.
    Kov: On the border. (looks back to Max) And then on the second it was a low blow, ya know. (Max interrupts and cuts him off) Kov continues: Why stop the fight?

    Kovalevs first reaction was to tell the truth as to what occurred. He had a translator right beside him at the time. Later obviously after his management got to him the tune changed. What was borderline went to be in his nuts. No other way to explain such a change. From black to white. In truth none of the blows were low. None of the blows came close to his balls. He was in agony from legit body blows. Kovalev can't take it to the body. Period. And that's why he lost the fight.

    No, if it was in the nuts or not is certainly not semantics. Do you believe that? It goes to show just how deluded you might be. Do you believe it was in the nuts?

    As I said, I'm not even sure it was low. Not even by a centimetre. You which fight definitely ended with an unequivocally illegal punch, though? Marciano-Walcott I. That last left hook by Rocky is definitely when Walcott is down. Doesn't that count either?

    Kovalev can say whatever he likes. The blows were not low. Borderline. Yes. Absolutely none hit him in the nuts. If you think so you are a woman and a virgin to boot.

    If a fight ends on an illegal punch it shouldn't have been stopped.

    The distinction is that you're a Kovalev fan and not a Hopkins fan. Bending over double from a blow that couldn't possibly in order to get a break and your opponent penalized hurt is disgraceful, that's all there is to it.

    Perry, I'm not asking you for world peace. I'm asking you admit the video you posted was misleading and you made an erroneous assumption based off it. It's all here, Perry.

    Kov: I did not get knocked down by any punches, an illegal!
    Max: You are saying you were never hurt to the body until the final round?
    Kov: Yeah. Only the low blow. Only the low blow!
    Max: This is the end, tell us what you see.
    Kov: Low blow! And I felt it this time.
    Kov: Again! Another one!
    Max: (cuts him off and asks about the right hand 30 seconds before, if he felt Ward's power)
    Kov: I didn't hurt like that, I didn't go down, it was a low blow! It was a low one.
    Max: It was below the belt! But looked borderline to me. Was it all the way low, or a borderline low?
    Kov: (stutters and tries to follow Max's hand gestures) Uh uh... low (gets confused and looks to the translator) speaks Russian briefly.

    You don't have to be hit square on your dick for it to be low.

    I would say allowing a fighter to strategically target a fighter's belt, knowing full well some will trail too low is pretty disgraceful.

    So the ref allowing legal blows is as bad as Kovalev feigning injury?

    STOP BEING SUCH AN EEFING FAN BOY and admit that Kovalev's behavior was disgraceful.

    And Williams, who received a head butt from Tyson as the last "blow" of the fight?

    Absolutely not! Kovalev stated the punches were borderline AND in truth if you watch each punch what do you see? Either legit body blows or one or two borderline blows. So to believe Kovalev that the blows were illegal is believing a complete and utter lie. No blow was illegal and if you are honest with yourself, and you are not, you would understand the truth as well. However your a "fan" and want to believe in falsehoods. When you grow up you will think differently.
