Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: There is No Fear of Sergey Kovalev on My End

[Unseen]

What youll fail to realize is Sullivan Barrera is probably more skilfull than anyone Kovalev has fought in the light heavyweight division and Ward wiped him out. What a complete fighter Ward is. The reflexes, the defense, 1st fight as a light heavyweight and scores a knockdown over a legit fighter. Andre is what a champion is all about, fights the best, shows class, and wins.

Personally I feel Hopkins is more skillful than barerra

They're Golovkin fans who used Kovalev as a boogeyman for Ward because they really thought there was no way Ward would fight him. They loved using Kovalev to say "why should Golovkin move up to fight Ward when Ward won't move up to fight Kovalev?"

Now Ward is doing exactly that and it is scaring the hell out of them.

Very true, I see Kovalev fans as very calm dudes on the forum. You may be right, it may just be anti-Ward/pro-GGG fans(some) mad as hell that Ward really is going to step up. Now their problem is that Ward is shaking off the rust and getting back into active form and that does not sit well with them. Despite this being the plan all along, that Ward would fight a couple of times in 2016 and end it with a 3rd fight with Kovalev. Never heard any other version of his comeback, so I don't know what the issue is.

ok stop with the 2 million dollar tune ups and fight him next then. its not like you are building up your popularity. no one in your own hometown went to that crap fight you just had and lets see what the ratings were but im guessing...negative a billion.

Im pretty sure the stadium was packed.

Fight him on the same night you fought Barrera doe! Don't wait until the end of 2016 doe!
.

Lmao !!! Meanwhile these Ward hating GGG lovers are simultaneously ok wit GGG chasing around 154 pounders all while he's about to fight a guy that's literally from around the corner from where I live in Largo Maryland .

I'll bet my kingdom that these clowns are are the same ones we see on tv at the Trump rallies .

I don't mean to take down Barrera by any means, but beating a shot Murat as a career highlight won't get you anywhere ... The guy is top 10 worthy at best... Sorry ...

Murat gave Hopkins all he could handle, Clev struggled beating him too.

Barrera out boxed, dropped, and stopped him. All JP has beaten to get a shot at Kovalev was a shot version of Bute, he should've lost to that Cuban brawler.

Kovalev fans pumping up his resume, it's not that good.

ward is a class act, doesn't clown just handles business. .good role model all around..why does he have haters at all is confusing. .and its from the exact bunch that hated floyd. with floyd they used his antics are justification, ward is clean cut, respectful, where is the hate coming from??

Of course, but Hopkins was a geriatric boxing wise, dude was 50 years old and still went all 12 with "Killa" lol. Dawson also beat B Hop, we saw what Ward and Stevenson did to Dawson shortly after.

Being black and successful, that's where it comes from.

" from the exact bunch that hated floyd "


And, this is EXACTLY what happened to Sergio Martinez.


* Pac said " I will fight anyone at 150 ".
* Martinez said, ok.
* Pac refused.
* Martinez became reviled, and was thereafter referred to as a " coward " who is picking on little guys.


* Golovkin said " I will fight anyone from 154-168 ".
* Ward said, ok.
* Golovkin refused.
* Ward became reviled, and was thereafter referred to as a " coward " who is picking on little guys.


Seen it all before..... and yes, it was the same fanbase.
