Rummy's Corner

Thanks Robney. And I pretty much agree with everything you said above, and I don't think Barrera would have made it long with Kovalev, either. But I don't think that necessarily says anything about what will happen between Ward and Kovalev, though.

Interesting. I actually think this would be a pretty bad match-up for Beterbiev. So I think Beterbiev tends to be overrated on the whole, and I think Ward is someone who would be able to best exploit many of his glaring weaknesses.

I would definitely place him in the top 2 myself, but respect your opinion.

:good

Thanks Bogo! :good

Any new videos from you lately?

 

I thought Ward would win (more along the 117-111, 116-112 range), but I figured Barrera would provide more of challenge.

Ward could possibly shut Kovalev down, but I don't think things will be easy for him - even if he's firing on all cylinders.

And while I don't view Kovalev as being especially fast, Kovalev is very good at being where he needs to be when he needs to be there. Of course, Ward is better overall at positioning, and has better footwork, faster feet, and better upper body movement. But Kovalev, for his specific style, is extremely efficient at finding range and maintaining proper punching distance.

:rofl:good

Agreed with your last point. But I will also say that I personally not only give Kovalev a great chance - I actually still favor him against Ward at present.

Thanks for watching and for the feedback!

Thanks and largely agreed!
