Comments Thread For: Ward: They Said Kovalev Would Kill Me, Now Talking Down on Him

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Andre (29-0, 15KOs) is not paying any attention to the critics who are talking down on Sergey Kovalev (30-0-1, 26KOs) following his performance on Monday night in Russia. Kovalev clearly retained his IBF/WBO/WBA light heavyweight titles, but also had some struggles along the way in his twelve round unanimous decision win over top rated contender Isaac Chilemba.

Who in the world said Kov would kill Ward?

I recommend reading what he said before freaking out. He didn't put down Kovalev in any way, shape, or form. He's talking about the critics.

You haven't been around here much I'm guessing??

That's a good mentality to have. People overreact after fights all the time not realizing what happened has nothing to do with a matchup against a completely different fighter.

Kovalev convincingly beat a top 10 caliber opponent and that's somehow a bad thing. This is where HBO's"KO's or bust" mentality comes back to hurt them because fans go into these fights expecting KOs.

And that's why Ward is a champion.

Ward is a smart and cool headed guy. I always admire the way he holds himself and have great respect for him. Intelligent both inside and outside of the ring ! He's not going to overlook Kovalev for even a second....That's how a great fighter's mind works.

I envy you! I've seen a lot of that noise on here and Youtube. Of course there's a good chance Kov could KO Ward. Few will dispute the possibility. But many are acting like Ward is somehow going to go out like Mohamedi or shot Pasqual. When I've said that "Kov has never fought anyone on Ward's level" I got people spamming my PM box with hate letters. lol
The hate is real.
