Comments Thread For: Kovalev Takes The West Step, Ward on The Radar

[Mr.Daddy]

Oh great, I hope they dont try and turn this Racist Russian into an honarary Mexican too! To much of that going around. I wonder how ***** would feel if I went to Russia and called myself the Mexican Russian? Any Mexican(s) that fall for the whole Mexican Russian thing has the wool pulled over their eyes. Open your eyes ese lol, these guys are trying to make it like we dont have our own people/athletes to go for and market on us.

"Racist Russian" is out of line. Way out of line. Have you ever labeled Muhammad Ali racist? He was extremely racist in promoting all of his fights with Joe Frazier - even comparing Frazier to a gorilla. So, have you, or are you now going to label Ali a racist? If not than reel in your racist rant on Sergey. One mistake, which he apologized for, does not make a man a racist.

Ward won't go up in weight, Kovalev won't come down. That fight ain't gonna happen.

Ward can't make 168 now, perhaps as a result of the long layoff.

One of his demands before fighting Smith (who has no problem making 168) was to have the fight at 172.

Ward is now a light heavyweight.

did you read the article? Ward-Kovalev is imminent

So... you read Duva saying "an Andre Ward fight is likely to occur" and you take that to mean the fight is imminent?

Just because Ward doesn't want to stress himself unnecessarily, getting down to 168 for a non-title fight, doesn't mean he can't make the weight. It's not uncommon for fighters to choose a "comfortable" in such circumstances.

fighting in california is a good thing because when he does fight ward he will be the a-side and the ref hopefully will dq ward for all the holding.

I dont care about advantage. I care that this would be a great fight and Oakland is 40 min North of me.

Sunnyvale? Mt View? Milpitas? San Jose? Where are you Fetta.

[Teetotaler]

ward is not gonna fight kovalev. He's shook simple as that. He rather go after the smaller ggg. I'd love for kovalev to go to Oakland and embarrass ward though.

[Nightfall]

Ward takes him to school. Simple and plain
