I hear there is a rematch clause, but exactly what the detailed terms are, I'm not sure. I'm sure the sanctioning bodies will want unification, asap.
Kovalev may decide to take another fight before the rematch. Jackson may advise him that he needs to make some adjustments first.
Rematch in March Kovalev was talking about,I hope the PPV has been lucrative as it could have a bearing on it,for sure Ward stands to make a lot of money in a rematch
Wouldn't it be sweeter if Ward defeats Stevenson for undisputed before the rematch? Then the rematch with Kovalev would be for the undisputed LHW championship.
He deserves a rematch I agree plus I think it's good for boxing. One can certainly make an argument he won the fight but there where moments in there where SK was baffled by Wards determination....the rematch will either be an extentsion of Wards grind of a display of SK's aggression and accuracy delivered at a higher more consistent level.
