    I want Kovalev to win it, but I can't bet against Ward.

    It's more the fact that there's no value in it.

    They will rob Kovalev if it goes 12.

    Translation:
    Kovalev can't out-box Ward, and If Kovalev can't KO Ward before 12, then Ward wins.

    If Chilemba can go the distance then so can Ward. Even Bellew beat ffs! I can't stand watching ward fight but hats off to him he has skills and is in a different league to Chilemba

    Kovalev will win all the rounds and the one in which he knocks Ward out.

    I see why no one likes you. You speak with a forked tongue.

    It's going to be very difficult for Kovalev to win rounds. I really don't know how good Kovalev is because he has nights where he's off and looks sloppy and then he has other nights where he does a tremendous job.

    Ward is more consistent. Ward just doesn't have off nights. That's the difference.

    It really is a pick em fight. Not sure who will win, but I think overall Ward has shown the higher level of overall skill and focus.

    It's really not that Kovalev is inconsistent then he just has less pro experience than Ward and has faced far less calibre opposition than Ward.
    I'm sure Ward could defeat all of Kovalev's past opponents, but I'm not so sure that Kovalev could defeat all of WArd's past opponents.

    Really, we haven't seen Kovalev against a quality opponent yet. The only fight that separates Kovalev from Golovkin's weak resume is, Hopkins and you can't gauge Kovalev's boxing ability by that fight..

    Kovalev would easily knock out Abraham, Froch, Bika, Kessler, Brand and Barrera, Ward has never fought anyone as big, strong and good as Kovalev..................

    However, Ward's judges have already filled out their cards, the ref will protect Ward as much as he can, the boxing commission will be on Ward's side also, so I doubt if they will give Kovalev any round, even if he knocks Ward down, the ref will call it a slip.............Kovalev will have to knock Ward out to get a draw................watch ans see the bias..............Ward has always had the deck stacked in his favor or he would not have signed the contract, as usual......................

    I'm not confident ward can handle Kovalev that easily. And why would the max option be 4 ? Is it because if Kovalev wins 4 rounds he'll win by stoppage ? Not sure that's a guarantee either.

    This fight will show 100% what they're made of. I can't decide the outcome atm. By fight week I'll know all I need to know. Heavily leaning Kovalev way though
