    Ward is in trouble. Kovalev is the type of fighter who beats up the urban style
    Didn't B-hop say something positive about Kovalevs ring smarts?

        What does height and reach mean when you are fighting on the inside?

            He's not utter **** he is just overrated, some set of fans act like he is the best boxer in the world right now yet what happens If he is forced to fight clean without clinching, headbutting and other foul play?

              Kovalev and Adonis both KO Andre Fraud.
              People in California won't travel within the state to see Ward fight.

                That is the second time you have referred to height, reach, and dimensions. They have pretty similar dimensions, I think Kovalev is a bit taller and reach is 1 inch longer, basically nothing. Not enough to make a difference. Why do ignorant fools like you not do your research before making a thread, and at least stick to facts. People don't realise that Ward is a big strong 168 lber, and he will fill out at 175 nicely. Anyhow, size will not be any kind of determining factor in this fight. It will be if Kovalev can keep his distance and keep Ward on the end of his punches, which would more than likely equate to a KO. I personally would not put money on it, Ward has faced fighters who have better jabs and quicker hands than Kovalev and they have barely landed a glove on him. I don't underestimate Kovalev, I think he is a brilliant fighter and his power is a massive equaliser, but I think as long as Ward doesn't catch too many power shots he will have his way with Kovalev. More athletic, faster hands, faster feet, can beat Kovalev on the inside or outside. Don't sleep on Wards power either, he can hit pretty well especially with the left hook. At the end of the day Abraham is known as one of the biggest hitters in the game and he couldn't get Smith out of there in 24 rounds, Ward busted him up and stopped him.

                The reason why I give Kovalev a chance is because we have seen Ward floored and even though he has proved his chin against big punchers, he has shown he can be hit and hurt. But that is all Kovalev has in my opinion a punchers chance with that long right hand or that follow up left he likes to throw from the southpaw stance, which has caught a few fighters unaware.
                damn good post...

                      And that means what when you are getting smothered??? you do know thats how Ward likes to fight right?
                      That means you have to get past that powerful jab to get into inside.

                      Abraham was able to keep Ward on the outside for the first few rounds, the better and bigger boxer in Kovalev might be able to do that too
