people giving ward a hard time he moved up to 175 to fight kovalev, kovalev was naturally bigger. ward got up off the floor and brought it too him.. imo ward done enough to scrape by but it easily could have gone to kovalev... let them rematch and fight out ward#1 p4p kovalev #2... its funny how people blame ward for the judges scorecard
This 👆I had Ward edging it,but even I was surprised by how weak his right hand is. I think Pernell had more power than Ward does.
wards a one handed fighter hes left handed and fights orthodox plus his right shoulder was wrecked. thats why his jAb n hook are his best attributes
i honestly had ward winning by one point but it easily could of gone kovalevs way. both were evenly matched in my opinion. so many close rounds. in the rematch i see the fight being close again.. kovalev may get the knockout or ward might be more flawless
i noticed in round one ward pushed across the ring with a 4 punch combination mostly hitting his gloves but he went flying it was as if kovalevs jab was breaking through wards guard with ease. ward has landed plenty of body shots from the get go but the stiff jab that hit ward cancelled all that out. ward was in a clinch and you could see him complaining to the ref... I was like oh crap this could be a verybad night for ward. it was like wards head movement was non existant from round one, then obviously he got timed in round two and got dropped
i think after round 9 i had it 85-85
im pretty sure round 10 was the very very close round (cant remember) and could of gone either way.. but i scored it for kovalev making it ward 94 - 95 kovalev
then i gave ward the last two rounds making it 114-113 in wards favour
idk, I got a feeling WK still has a lot to give. Furys style size and movement is what troubled klitchko. Anthony joshua doesn't fight like fury. Everyone seems to be writing off WK yes he is deteriorating but let's not forget what the man is capable of.
