    You say you are a proud Ward fan I say he us a cheating scumbag POS. He LOST fight one but was saved by the biased US judges he insisted upon. In fight too a blind , or corrupt ref you choose, let him get away with murder.
    I m a BOXING FAN that always wants to see the better fighter on the night legitimately get the win. That didnt happen in either fight.& in so many other farces Lately

    The final blow was clearly low the ref blew the call. However Kovalev did himself no favors with his terrible body language, he looked like a man looking for a way out. Plus he looked tired. Also if the ref was doing nothing about it Kovalev should of whacked Ward in the nuts. And I'm a fan of his and i, like most reasonable people feel he easily won the first fight. This time he didn't look nearly as good, Ward improved and while he should not have had the fight stopped when it did, he looked like a man who wasn't about to wage any type of comeback.
    To me he's 1-1 vs Ward and still a top 10 p4p guy on the backend

    Buddy, please see my reply to Bailey. I'm not trying to disrespect you, offend you, or ignore you, but if my first three posts on the topic didn't register, I can only get worse from there. This is probably like my 11th post in this thread so it's probably borderline illegible to everyone else and possibly even schizophrenic. Doesn't help that I damn near got frostbite throughout my fingers working outside in Boston today.

    One concluding thought and observation - I know you're a boxing fan and first and foremost a fan of the sport. We've both been posting here for years. Boxing is a sport and it's competitive events are matches. Those are facts. In your last sentence you typed "That didnt happen in either fight........" If boxing were solely a sport, it would be much easier to change my opinion on the matter, but it's not, and boxers are seen as both boxers and fighters simultaneously. Kovalev's one hell of a boxer no matter how anyone views him, I just don't rate him as a fighter. I personally feel he has NO fight in him.

    Had the situation been reversed, Ward would have collapsed and been taken away on a stretcher only to file a lawsuit on a later date. Ward is the pus*y for "fighting" that way.This fight has to go down in history as the most disgracefully obvious display of corruption in recent times.
    You can self-inflict a Ward-style ball shot and get back to us on how well you handled it.

    Oh FFS!!!!!!!

    "Had the situation been reversed" and "So and So is a ***** for 'fighting' that way" - two statements never made by a winner in the history of winning but two of the most popular statements ever made by beta's, victims, and losers alike in the history of beta victimized losers.

    Bro, I don't have to get back to you on anything, my entire life has been one huge and spectacular self-inflicted shot to my own balls. But here I am, having got back up time and time again and fought on and fought back every time.

    I'm somewhat disappointed but not surprised you took the metaphorical way out of my challenge. I am starting to see a pattern in Ward's fan base. I think Ward could have gotten away with kneeing Kovalev in the balls that night.

    He looked like a man who crapped himself from the previous body shots. He was mentally folding a few rounds earlier. He was turning his back, and complaining about shots that were legal.

    Kid are you serious? Both in and out of the ring I've been in so many fights in my life, been jumped so many times, gotten my ass kicked so many times, and gotten my ass kicked about as badly as one can get kicked by multiple dudes at once I don't need to use a metaphor to get back to you - if I still have a pulse and can still make a conscious thought I am FIGHTING BACK, I'm NOT looking for a way out, I'm NOT looking for anyone's help or expecting anyone to help/save me, and I'm doing everything I can in retrospect to get revenge instead of sitting around whining and complaining, pointing my finger at anyone else, or making excuses and complaining.

    Oh yeah,you sound like a tough guy. There is a certain code of honor even in a street fight,no hitting the groin. Have you laid anyone out with a groin shot? Even in your darkest moments,unless you're a cowardly pos, i doubt you would resort to that.Do you get it now?

    I'm all set dude, the downs syndrome team wouldn't even take you. Tough guys or guys who want other's to think their tough don't talk about habitually and brutally getting their ass kicked and I said I've gotten it kicked as bad as one can get - safe bet somewhere in that beating my nuts took some shots too. BTW, If I'm the tough guy, you must be the not so tough guy. I'm out.

    Your story of self-loathing has been enlightening .o_O As a result ,you've made it easier to understand Ward's fans.Before meeting you I could only speculate that Ward's fans were total washouts.In return, I hope i bestowed knowledge that will help you to realign yourself(look up the word honorable). When you next find yourself rolling in the gutter,keep your shots above the belt-line.
    :pDo you want to know what the funniest part of doing an office conga-line?When you look back and realize you're doing it alone,and you're not in a office, you're in a psychiatric hospital.:ambulance:

    Although I like Rummy he is liking a lot of these posts excusing Wards tactics. Nationalism is great and we all are guilty of it but a lot of these people saying Kovalev should of fouled him back or was mentally weak were the same people crying about the Dirrell-Froch decision in the super 6 and saying things like this never happen in America. Hilarious.

    Asks rhetorical question to indicate when one might realize they are in midst of a psychiatric crisis....... Proceeds to answer rhetorical question like a battle proven vet, leading by example and letting us all know that it's actually a positive thing and graciously using himself as the example to shoot for.
