    yeah should have let it continue then Kovalev would have probably gone out with a proper knockout win.

    Now that's how you finish a career in style. A KO is never a bad way to leave the game.

    Enjoy the retirement champ :ggg

    How would Kovalev do against Marco Huck do you think?

    Completely random question I know. Mann just reminded me of him a bit.

    Kaboom!!

    I think it's abundantly clear now that Kovalev has the greatest jab of all time. It's a power jab. Vicious power. Russian bear nuclear holocaust power.

    He's hurt, wobbled and dropped many fighters with jabs.

    He's stopped fighters with jabs.

    He's broken bones with jabs

    He's dropped iron-jawed fighters with jabs

    And he's even climbed out of his grave and dropped much bigger and much younger CWs with jabs but still they refuse to believe.

    How much more proof do the naysayers require for goodness sake?

    One thing's for sure in this crazy boxing game is you're damned if you do, damned if you don't if you're a deep Soviet brother :shakehead:

    Animal will be missed, but I have a feeling he will get a call from Turki and get a proper send off

    It smelled fishy to me. Mann didn't throw anything in last 3 rounds.

    Shut the **** up with the conspiracy theory nonsense. Mann gassed himself out, charging forward looking for a KO, while being hammered in the face with a ramrod jab and combinations. That's usually the exact outcome when that happens.

    This was epic...

    4:55pm EST, the library computers shut down - forcing me to hurry and submit my incomplete Round 3 post and run to my car.

    Drove back to work, and was exiting my vehicle at 5:10pm and starting to walk across the parking lot when Kovalev hit the big KO7 - moments before I reached the door. :ARMS1: Couldn't have worked out better (though having to glance at the 4th-6th splitscreen with my GPS piecemeal from the corner of my eye while on the road wasn't ideal).

    I'm glad to have been able to share in at least one Kovalev fight experience with my son, albeit remotely. @LilButt actually told me on the phone tonight he thinks Kovalev vs. Mann is the best fight and coolest finish he's watched live so far. :thumbsup:
