but looking at ward in his last fight when he was giving the post fight to HBO he looked just as big, arms as long too as Kovalev's. I think Ward will pull a boxing lesson. Size was my reason for getting Garcia over Matthysse when 80% of online forums were giving Matthysse over Swift
I think ward wins too, but not because of size, i think kov hits harder, just like thurman hits harder than porter,bradley even tho hes skinny
Yea no size advantage for either man. Ward needs to negate Kovalev's power by smothering his punches and rolling with them. Kovalev needs to pepper Ward, keep him tentative and set him up for big shots, make him over think it.
Arms have little to with your size. Tommy Hearns had bigger arms than Muhammad Ali when he fought Hagler. Arm size means nothing. Kovalev is bigger.
Ward will make Kovalev look small on fight night... The Kovalev fans will be claiming foul when SOG plays with the Krusher.
He wasn´t that big at 168, not during the Super Six days. But that was a long time ago and he has stated that even making 175 takes work.
Ward is not a strong fighter. Kovalev is a much stronger and more powerful person. I thought everybody knew Kovalev was the hunter in this fight.
Ward is very strong. He shoved Barrera out of a clinch and sent him halfway across the ring. There is a difference between being the stronger fighter and the heavier puncher. No doubt Kovalev is the heavier puncher but he will get man-handled in the clinches and in-fighting. Just wait and see.
