I also was disappointed with the stoppage. But I wouldn't have given Kovalev much of a chance of finding that fight-ending shot, it seemed to me that Ward had him figured out. Anything can happen though!
Agreed! Kov was going out sooner or later, but you gotta give a dude like Kov a chance to finish on his terms!
He said Its impossible to beat Ward with officials on his side. Kovalev just blames himself for letting the fight go to the corrupt judges or having the referee dictate what can and cannot happen.
I just showed you the quote where he said he needs a trainer to become better than Ward, which means he accepts he is not better than Ward. I don’t know how people can argue Kovalev is a better fighter than Ward when he thinks he is not better than Ward. Didn’t Kovalev keep saying he is gonna stop Ward and brutalise him, how comes he couldn’t do it in two attempts. It was in fact Ward who rocked Kovalev with a right hand and had him in serious trouble when the dumb referee stopped the fight prematurely.
Kovalev said its impossible to beat Ward with officials on his side. Anything else is him just being humble and blaming himself for letting the fight go to the judges or knocking out Ward before the referee intervenes by allowing Ward to perform pubic shots.
You’re insanely stubborn, no offense but regardless of what you want to believe the fact is Ward is just better at controlling the ring environment. He’s a level above in terms of dedication and boxing intelligence it’s not a knock to Kovalev since I think he’s an awesome talent and an offensive juggernaut. Put your predeterminations and prejudices to the side, separate yourself from your nurtured bias and view things, events and people with a balanced eye. Trust me it’s clarity in its purest form.
I dont care if I triggered you, what is factual is that Ward needs officials to win a boxing match, nobody would have ever bet on Ward winning a boxing match in a neutral venue, or Russia for that matter against Kovalev. I know how much people like you want to censor differing view points, but quite frankly, bite me. still friends?
Triggered? I’m merely responding to a publicly viewed post. Trust me there’s nothing you can say on this site that would trigger any permanent feelings from me it just can’t happen I’m not built that way. People like me? I could care less about the needless bureaucracy that exists in this site and in this world. The last thing I ever want if for folks to stifle their opinions because of fear of some sort of backlash. Ward didn’t need officials or low blows all he needed was to express his superiority as an adjustable, resourceful confident fighter and the rest will fall in place based on what was being built since round one of their first fight. I’m telling you my man broaden those horizons cultivate yourself and use your intellectual talent to increase your tolerance of other rational perspectives. It’s refreshing trust me......friend
Just accept Wards hometown advantage. You are just another easily manipulated sheep, a shill for the extremist establishment that wants to censor rational minded people like myself. For a man that works for some UN position, you sure as hell spend more time trying to censor free speech online rather than trying to cure the word of its calamity, no wonder the world is so screwed up, because of negligent creeps like yourself. We still friends?
Lmao I’ll admit you’re quite funny sir I don’t think I’ve ever been called a neglegent creep. I have nightmares waking up in colds sweats thinking about the word conformity.
Hold on, are talking about the same Boesel that got stopped by an old Murat? Come on that’s poor form. Murat is European level at best.
