Kitty Kov wanted to hug more than fight.
He didnt want that inside work.
Rematch will be more convincing win for Ward. There is too much disarray in Kovalevs camp with him bashing his own trainer. He wont do a damn thing different while Ward will be ten times better.
Wont give Kov his rematch, boy knows he got lucky with the judges last time. Why don't you hurry up and retire ffs
Completely disagree! Apparently negotiations for the rematch are underway and a close fight going a certain fighters way is Not a robbery.
Personally had Ward winning, after about round five Kovalev totally forgot about going to the body and trying to box. Ward however boxed very well and got some great work off inside the pocket
He's a great fighter and a future Hall Of Famer, give the man a break.
:argue:
He is one of the 3 or 4 best pound for pound fighters in the world in the opinion of most. Many consider him the best pound for pound fighter in the world. How can he possibly be a bum? If he retires without giving Kovalev a rematch that is his decision to make. Any boxer has the right to retire at any time. It's not against the law.
Yeah I agree. Some of the nonsense talked about AW since the fight has been pretty pathetic. He won a close fight big deal . He is taking his time trying to get a good deal for the rematch, hardly a crime, actually it's called being smart and securing his family's future.
Sorry about that. My mistake
It more mine. I found out quick people actually think stupid sh*t like this. Like the TS. I should have made it more clear to begin with.
Do you post for shock value or are you truly this stupid?
Already said I was being sarcastic. Should have been super clear. Ironic that you asked me if I was stupid
You can't deny he's a bum. Name his accomplishments. You can't. He wasn't even going to fight kov the first time. He ducked him then and he's ducking him again. I don't think he will every fight him. Ward has been running scared for years. Hate to be the bearer of bad news.

When you sign a contract you read it in full first including any and all fine print. You have your legal team look it over, twice. Ward knew about the immediate rematch clause when he agreed to it by signing the contract, it wasn't in fine print. Once again he's looking to renegotiate the terms, despite them being legally bound in writing and signed off on by both parties. It's simple, honor your contractual obligations and you'll at least be viewed as a man of your word. You'll also avoid costly legal battles in court and Ward's been there before with Dan Goossen.
Ward never earned a title shot at Light Heavyweight in the first place. He never even beat a Top 10 ranked LHW prior to fighting Kovalev for his 3 world titles. He should be thanking Kovalev for granting him the great opportunity, given that he didn't have to give him the fight, especially in the US. Kovalev was the consensus #1 ranked Light Heavyweight in the world, undefeated, and the unified champion of his division. Yet, Ward still thought at the time that he was the A-side going into the fight after years of absence from the sport fighting in a lower division. You can't even make this stuff up.

Apparently you are new to these boards because I have heard MUCH worse and the person writing it was dead serious. I actually heard someone say "name his accomplishments" when it came to Mayweather and when the accomplishments were named, the person degraded every single one of Mayweathers accomplishments - and they weren't playing the Devil's advocate either. Stick around and you will hear things you would swear were sarcasm and will come to find out are dead serious.
They were being trumpist
oh okay my bad

It's my fault. I can see where you could think I was serious. The starter of the thread thinks so

Bro I found out fast. And it's sad to take away or down grade any of this. These guys Aren't playing freeze tag. It's serious. Agree with you on PBC. THey are doing great things weeks after weeks of entertaining scrapes easily accessible to the public. Give me boxing.
I was being sarcastic. Wards first ballet HOF. Dominate performances against nearly all his opponents. I believe he won a CLOSE FIGHT the first match and I'm sure he can adjust and win more clearly the second time. And I don't really find him boring. I'm Cuban so I appreciate the part of the sweet science that most find boring
oh okay my bad

The part where you said "name his accomplishments" should have been a dead give away lol. Heck even the "he ducked him the first time" line was a strong hint of sarcasm.Apparently you are new to these boards because I have heard MUCH worse and the person writing it was dead serious.

Stick around and you will hear things you would swear were sarcasm and will come to find out are dead serious - JUST like the guy who started this thread calling Ward a Bum.

Haha i thought so to. "Name his accomplishments?" Uhhhhh were do I start however I do see a TON of downplaying on here so I can't blame them for thinking I was serious.
