  1. And he was dropped in the first round. Maybe I should upgrade my tickets and get closer so that I can hear his jaw crack if Nadjib lands a good one. Can't wait until Ward vs Kovalev.:bbb

    Ward is the grand chief of exposing in boxing.

    Ward is going to get jabbed to death, and knocked out. Whichever comes first. :D

    Anyone who brings up the Caparello knock down should be required to post the video.

    That was NOT a kd, Kovalev was off balance and slipped (something that's happened to him quite a few times) and the lady ref ruled it a KD

    Learn the difference between a real knockdown, and being off balance you clown. The latter has absolutely nothing to do with chin, but balance and positioning.

    Sergey KRUSHER Kovalev has a very good chin.

    But more than that he is the best finisher in boxing, hits very very hard and has great boxing skills.

    Kovalev got legitimately dropped by Caparello; he got raked by a few straight lefts early in the round.

    Beterbiev got legitimately dropped by page; you don't take 8 steps backward into the corner after a "slip."

    But the thing is, they each came back in the second round and scored a KO, so who gives a ****?

    They work in a job, where the opponents goal is to hit them in the head with great force, knockdowns happen, it's what you do when you get up that's important.

    Yup, a boxer got cut because he was being punched, he must have paper skin

    He pushed Kovalev down and that push was set up by a nutshot and stepping on Kovalev's foot. Caparello's a big fan of Cotto's obviously.

    Didn't even think that was a legitimate KD, looked like a balance issue.

    Neither of them were, people who say otherwise are looking for something that isn't there, probably wishful thinking.

    I can picture what Ward vs Kovalev would look like. Keep in mind, Kovalev is bigger, stronger, and frankly just as intelligent as Ward with ring IQ.

    I can imagine the fight ending somewhat early, Kovalev landing a flush shot into Ward's liver.. Ward being the smaller and weaker dude won't stand a chance, especially if he moves up in weight with his feather fists :lol: he's a soft puncher in his own division :rofl

    This. He instantly got back up from slipping.
