Finally, Ward's Inactivity caught up to him.

Fighting the likes of Alexander Brand, Barrera, and Paul Smith in a span of 4 years doesn't prepare you for someone like Kovalev at 175. We've been saying it all along but the Ward fanboys wouldn't listen. Ward ended up getting a rude awakening in this fight, dude was lucky he didn't get knocked the fk out early. He learned the difference between a champion LHW like Kovalev and the other bums he's been feasting on. I had Kov winning the fight. Only way you could have Ward winning is if you gave him every single round that could have went either way.
