Why wasn't Kovalev DQ'ed?

[AvoidDisaster]

Pretty sure Kovalev's trainer John David Jackson tripped Pascal during the fight... Can a trainer touch an opponent during a fight? What are the rules? Didn't Carlos Molina get DQ'ed just because his trainer entered the ring.

pretty sure Pascal was punch drunk and didnt know what was up with his legs

Which round? Put up a video... is everyone supposed to take your word for it?

Keep reaching. They didn't enter the ring, they wiped the water off the mat pascal was hurt and fell backwards into the hand. Had no bearing man.

He did something, I alluded to this. He wiped the floor or something with a towel was no reason to do it and tripped up pascal.

This cause Pascal to trip up and stumble and that what the ref saw and asked him are you okay before he even called the fight back into action, I think that heavily influenced the ref decision to jump in and stop it when It wasnt necessarily yet.

Ill upload a lil clip when I get my hands on some footage

He was wiping the floor because Kovalev slipped on the water they kept pouring over his head that fell on the ring.

Kovalev slipped in his own corner's puddle as he came in for the kill in rd 8. Not sure which rd Pascal was tripped on?

Watch again. He was really hurt, and the water/wiping did cause him to lose his feet a bit. But then stumbling into the corner had NOTHING to do with the water or the wiping. He was just hurt and on ***** street. The ref saw him stumbling BACK not on that spot because he was too busy with Kovalev's slip.

pascal drunkenly stumbled into their hands as they were drying the ring. then he drunkenly stumbled untouched across the entire ring and fell face first into the ropes.
