OFFICIAL Kovalev vs Ward Weigh-in, Live!! Kovalev 175 lbs, Ward 175lbs!!

This Maurice Hooker dude is a twitchy fella

 

Yeah but they are either imprints of established major outfits with no autonomous power of their own, or, if they carve out and go independent (or start that way) they are essentially just some random schlub with no clue how to run a promotional organization whose only selling point is the fact that they themselves used to fight (which doesn't exactly give you an automatic leg-up...cases like ODLH where you become a successful promoter after being a known boxer are one in million)

 

The Corona girl to the left is deffo holding her stomach in...

 

This is a good card from Duva/Roc Nation. It puts K2's card to shame.
Claressa Shields makes her Pro début against a good top ranked opponent. Everyone in boxing will be watching this fight.

 

Do we know the ref yet?

 

They're both holding those hips like they're liable to bust out and spill over the stage!

 

Darnell Boone, SWERVE!

 

It's a crazy audacious debut, actually. Just shows what supreme confidence they have in her.

 

Doing main event weigh-ins now...

I guess Chilemba vs. Gvozdyk and some of the remaining non-PPV chowder from the undercard will follow after.

 

Ward is ready!

 

Andre Ward 175lbs, flexing like an 80's pro wrestler and gnashing his teeth.
Sergey Kovalev 175lbs

 

Kovalev not looking in good shape

 

Both dead on. They're serious.

 

Stunners both!
