The plan is clear, the wanna make a trilogy, just like pacquiao - bradley. That is why ward had to get a "win" in first fight. Kovalev will clearly win another 2 fights.
Yeah but good look getting my money... the contender, not the champ gets out worked, and knocked down. Not exactly a straightforward robbery.. but I truly believe that ward did not do enough to secure that victory
Axeman is going to beat Lomachenko? Why don't you put your money where your mouth is.. fuk betting odds. You n me, I'll match you. Lemme wassup and whatcha wanna do
Says who?!? What kind of logic is this?
Do you not know how boxing works? Judges have to score 12 individual rounds and turn in their score after each individual round. There is no "you have to beat the champion convincingly", it's simply who won the most rounds, add up the points and that is the winner. Doesn't matter of they won by a single point or ten.
Mate, Ward was the contender.. not the champ. All im saying is that I believe he had to do more in order to secure a victory
Call it what you want, Ward just defeated the most feared boxer on the planet in his weight class. The win cements him as an all time great, people can be as upset as they want to be, but you have the give the new light heavyweight champion his propers.
How dumb does HBO look? They pushed Ward out of his own weight class in an attempt to feed him to SK, they did not want him to fight GGG, or they would have pushed for the fight.
They wanted Ward to lose, and it didn't happen, this is awesome to watch.
As for a rematch?
No need, Ward won, SK clearly is not a box office draw. Ward crossed over based on the tweets from celebs, Ward is about to cash in, and he does not need SK to do it.
STFU.. not how it works.. you don't just BARLEY beat the champ.. you have to do it convincingly, unfortunately it was not reflected by wards performance
