can you provide the footage of kova v boone 1 so i can see this "flash knockdown" for myself? also according to reports it was a very close fight.
can you provide footage of boone knocking down kovalev? you cant because it never happened and if it did by some miracle it was a flashknockdown
Then why did Kovalev need to fight him twice? atsch That "gatekeeper" fought Kovalev to a SD in their first bout, that's why.
so a fighter with 25 loses and a 24% knockout percentage is not a gatekeeper? did you watch curtis stevens beating him up?
Boone knocked ward so badly that for the next 2 rounds you could see him badky hurt Boone also sparked stevenson which proves also that stevenson had glass
where does this inclination that kova has an iron jaw come from ? he has been down before? he aient margarito or chuvallo why do you dismiss the official recorded knockdown as a flash knockdown ?
Kova has shown some glass tendencies aswell. Isn't the popular myth that GGG would buttfugg him in sparring where dude would almost cry? According to "Fable" Sanchez... when he trained Krusher.
There's also a possibility that Kovalev's shots will be so devastating Ward will do nothing but try to defend, never let his hands go and lose on points, just like B-Hop. But if the Krusher goes all out and starts swinging for the fences on Ward like Froch did in the 12th, Ward unlike Chilemba and Hopkins won't be able to stand up to it.
Ward's chin is fine, Boone is about the only guy who ever had him down and hurt. If Ward gets KO'ed, it will be because of the enormous power of the Krusher.
I see this fight going as Kov vs Bhop fight as soon as Ward feels the first right from Kova. Yeah, you could say it could be like the Froch match up but Kov brings so much more to the table than Froch, power wise and boxing. Ward will have to be very careful. I think the game plan will be to use combination of outside boxing and inside roughhousing (Andre is good at playing dirty). He can not trade with Kov mid range for more than 1-2, maybe 3, otherwise he will get clipped. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Kovalev has a worse chin than Ward. I don't recall Ward getting knocked cold in the AMs wearing headgear by pillow gloves.
Power wise yes but Kovalev doesn't have better boxing skills than Froch. Froch way less predictable, with better punch variety. Kovalev too reliant on the jab/straight, Ward will have a field day.
