Until he gets ktfo

Easy fight for Ward. Kovalev is strong and even though he's tried to American up his style he still has a basic euro style where all he does is try to keep it long. Basic feet..

Johnny Nelson has no idea about how to fight a top "Ex-Soviet school" product.
... But, well, everybody is entitled to express his own opinion.

Johnny Nelson is NOT the one fighting Kov, Ward is mate. I also disagree with Nelson but everyone has an opinion from a viewing pointing of view.

So: I finally found out that Ward is fighting Kovalev. Really?

Maybe 5 years ago... but not this time. Funny how people underrate Kovalev skills. Add size and hunger... it's gonna be a tough fight!

Fight not happening in November...just my opinion

If Ward is fighting in Aug. I don't see him fighting in Nov. unless that's his plan to stay really sharp by having fights close in proximity. I think this fight happens next year or maybe Dec. at earliest.

Krusher throws around 60 punches a round. That isnt a lot by any means. He will probably throw less vs ward.

[King Jaffe Joffer]

Didnt Krusher get put on his ass 4 fights ago too lol... he aint fought anyone. Wards resume is waaay better.. People saying Wards never seen anything like Krusher, well yea. But Ward has aeen Kessler and Froch, who both have excellent jabs and good power. So yea, hes seen fighters like Krusher, maybe to a lesser degree (we really dont know if hes that much better since krusher hasnt fought anyone) but Krusher NEVER seen anything close to ward. And i dont wanna hear a 50 year old b hop.

Ward has stamina issues. Kovalev will be dangerous from round 1-12. Can't wait.

[SAN D13GO VILLAN]

It's 50/50...with a slight variation depending on where each respective book is located--books in europe will undoubtedly take more bets on Kovalev because he has a bigger fanbase there. Straight up 10/11 odds for either side. Further down the line I expect more money to come on Kovalev early, then Ward late as the underdog.

Cant wait!!! Super excited! It's a classic Master boxer vs aggressive puncher....
