    If they are good close fights I want to see a trilogy.

    If they're competitive and interesting, that would not surprise me.

    I rate Kovalev, what is there not to rate? But, Ward is a defensive genius, it doesn't matter what he gets out of the next fight, as long as he wins.

    Come fight night, I would expect Ward to control the tempo of the fight with his laser jab. If Kovalev does get close on the inside then Ward will probably display his high level IQ inside defense, and will tie him up and throw him around. In my opinion, Kovalev needs to land clean and end Ward to have any hope of victory, it's very unlikely he will win on points.
