I went with Ward via points. I cant see Kovalev by points, just like I cant see Ward via KO.
The most likely for me is Kov by KO or Ward points. I just can see Ward evading Kovalevs best shots and out boxing him, but that is as likely as Kovalev KOing Ward.
I think its too soon for Joshua. 18 months down the line with a couple of big fights under his belt I would favour Joshua, but I think this one comes too soon.
I think WK goes looking for a KO early BUT Joshua always has that power to end the fight at any time. It will all come down to how Joshua handles WK's jab and how WK handles Joshuas speed.
Very strange fight - felt abit like a technical spar at times - a lot of punches but not many power punches.
I think a better LH would stop both Brahmer or Cleverly.
