Oh I'd LOVE to see Kovalev fight Stevenson!! Lol Especially considering Stevensons past I won't get into. But I'd much rather see Sergey finish Ward first. As do millions of others.
No, Ward talks and he's called an idiot. Kovalev trash talks and he's praised. You have to admit, there's a serious double standard in boxing. I guess both sides of fan bases kind of cancel each other out.
Ward is the one playing games with the rematch and he also started the trash talking crap. So it's really retaliation. It's not like Ward Dindu Nuffin
My neighbour poops on my lawn, he's disgusting. Am I not disgusting if I poop on his lawn in retaliation? "He started it" is childish.
Well I'd say adults pooping on lawns and talking smack to each other after the first one was nothing but professional are a tad different. Lol Go back and look at the bitter and childish stuff Ward said after their fight. And he supposedly believes he won?! Lol! And what would you suggest Kovalev do after getting robbed of his ****ing titles and having the rematch that was in the contract delayed?? Just be quiet as a church mouse while Ward talks more ****?? Lol! No. Sorry
Many of you guys have this the complete opposite of reality. Ward was granted the decision, but everyone KNOWS, (yes, everyone who can score) kovalev proved on a talent level kovalev is vastly superior, the problem was kovalev was winning so clearly and effortlessly that he end up coasting the 2nd half which should NOT had mattered. Hindsight, it gave that in for ward being gifted a very undeserved decision. When 75% of ALL viewers watched kovalev best him with out own eyes, there's no way ward's ego would ever let him being handled, and easily be his last fight. Kovalev let up once he started to fatigue, Kovalev letting up was the sole reason for ward fighting on even terms from round 5/6 through 12. How could that be wards swan song, doubt it
Pooping and talking trash ARE different but it doesn't sound like you're getting the point lol. I have no problem with Kovalev talking trash, just the double standards from the fans. I'm actually more on Kovalev's side on this matter. I see the games Ward is playing, I get it, it's all psychological. But we don't want psychological warfare, as fans, we want fights. I won't resort to calling Ward a coward or a ducker because he hasn't ducked. I will call him a diva and a control freak, and I'm a fan. I like both Ward and Kovalev, I truly do, which is why I opened my wallet to the PPV; I LOVED this fight. I had Ward winning 114-113 but a lot of people disagree, therefore Ward needs to grant the rematch, otherwise Kovalev is still the man at 175. Just my opinion.
