]Shots were low, but Kovalev was milking it. Either hoping to get a point deduction taken from Ward or hoping to get a 5 minute break so he could recover from the beating that Ward was administering. Weeks wasn't buying it though.
These guys gotta learn when to take a knee. Too much pride I guess. A lot of fights could go on if the guy just takes a knee instead of taking punishment along the ropes without returning fire.
Will be interesting to see what's next for Ward. If no Stevenson, what else is there to do except Kovalev 3? Forget about cruiserweight, that is unrealistic. All the cruiserweight champs are mini-heavyweights except Shumenov.
blaming the victim i see. weeks wasnt buying what? that kovalve had just been hit with 3 brutal low blows in a row? it either happened or it didnt and since it did shouldnt he be allowed to have a rest? seems only fair when a foul has been committed. golota was dq'd for the same thing ward did but he was the b-side. ward is the a-side so its a "ko" this is why people dont like boxing. one guy clicnhes and low blows the entire fight, has a brief moment of success and they stop the fight. other guy literally has to fight a perfect fight and deal with all the otehr guys cheating and even then he might get robbed like in teh first fight.
GIF 3 Lowblows right in front of Tony Weeks
3 Lowblows right in front of Tony Weeks. No way he didn't see this. And instead of warning Ward and giving Kovalev his 5 minutes to recover he stops the fight and rules it a KO in Ward's favor. Tony Weeks messed up big time and main events should do their job for once and protest the result of the fight even if they have to go to court.
I think Ward was going to win anyways but that was a terrible corrupt stoppage by Tony Weeks and it robbed Ward himself from a legit stoppage.
You have obviously never been in the ring and don't know what its like getting hit with a low blow.
You clearly see the punch land on the lettering and go upwards, they were uppercuts intended for the stomach that caught Kovalev low.
Just for a second can you admit that you are not blind and respect the sport?
People are too stupid to realize you don't have to be hit right on the nuts for it to be a low blow, the entire groin area is off limits for a reason.
Legal or not weeks should have not stopped fight yet. Ward deserves an unquestionable win he trained his butt for it, and kova needs to be given a chance for a comeback since he wasn't unconcious or out off his feet.
Khan was given three tries. Even bradley was given benefit of the doubt against provo
Those guys are more hurt imo.
Dont give me that "oh hes gonna get stop anyway" we cant say that to all the greatest comebacks in boxing
If you combine the 50/50 shots with the couple of 100% low blows, it warrants a point deduction without a doubt. #WardKovalev2 pic.twitter.com/5bTyS9jI8D— AM (@DoomhamSana) June 18, 2017
That was a well timed right hand over the lazy jab by a great boxer who threw his body into the right hand. Anyone could've been rocked.
guy did the booty dew, he's an overrated bum Kathy diva crying at the post fight presser. lol https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-29-2016/-Ddiun.gif
Ward can't even see to be fair because Kovalev is low! Beyond just the Low Blow, he was HURT from that Right and was in serious trouble. Trying to recover from being hurt on top of already being Fatigued! I mean they can fight again but I think Ward has his Number Now :dunno:
Kovalev has a glass jaw this is a fact. He got rocked badly by a light puncher.

Even worse from the side angle. You can see he teed off 2 in a row.
People are under the impression that lying about this will "empower their side" but it just lowers boxing in the public eye. Check twitter trends right now, see what people think of boxing when fights end like this.
