Andre Ward is the best fighter over 160 easily

[i'm a fun haver]

Ward will get knocked out if he fights Kovalev.

[CANELOLUJAH]

no hes not, dude a coward. He wont fight anybody so how can you say he better then this or that lol.

[Weebler I]

I don't see in Kovalev the ability to adapt so I think if one night he will be outboxed he will be outboxed all night not just in 7 rounds or so. Maybe he would win a few rounds with ineffective aggression and work rate but I doubt that he would win more than 2-3 rounds. It's not because he is that bad but because Ward makes fighters ordinary a little like Mayweather or Rigondeaux. On a different way though.
No fighter is flawless but the nearest things to that are Mayweather and Ward right now in this sport.

I think Kovalev can be knocked out but I'm not really convinced he can be outboxed. If you think about it Campillo, Cleverly, Hopkins and Pascal barely took 2 rounds off him...combined.

he hit ALL of them with some big shots EARLY and made them over cautious....I don't think he'll hit Ward with anything big that EARLY...I could be wrong but I think Ward has better reflexes than ALL of them combined

None of those fighters are in Ward's class. None of them are even particularly close IMO.

I disagree with that "2 rounds" but that's not the point. They won just a few rounds not certainly because they couldn't hit Kovalev with anything but because every of them was forced to back down and Kovalev had the forward momentum what he really likes, and I think the only thing he really likes. Ward wouldn't give him the favour to flee from him all night long, that's the territory where Kovaev really thrives. Ward won't play cat-mouse game with Kovalev. He won't run away in the fares corner and he won't shell up with his back against a corner or the ropes waiting Kovalev to try to put his long ass combinations on him. Nah... Ward is smarter than that. Hopkins is smart too he couldn't do it because he is simply not good enough to do it at his age.
Ward will do what he did to Froch, not exactly the same but kinda...

Froch is NO Kovalev.
Kovalev is superior to Froch in everything.
Campillo, Hopkins and Cleverly didn't win a round against Kov and Pascal at best won two.

The man has a high boxing IQ,hand speed and is accurate as all get out. The guy will not lose anytime soon. I think Stevenson and Kovalev need to unify soon and Ward will move up and fight the Lineal/undisputed chmapion

You sound like a fool one Ward can't make 160 and 2 he would get crushed by Kovalev at 175 He's probably the best Fighter at 172

it was pretty clear that no one won any rounds except pascal and he won 2 at most so how can you disagree? giving rounds to guys for taking punches?

are you implying that ward will clinch kovalev all fight? i agree! ward's great!
