Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Coach: Ward's Prime is Gone, Now He's Facing a Killer!

[MC Hammer]

was ward even that great in his prime? Just fought in a dog**** division

Ward going to attend the next presser at least?

[Metho_4u]

So if you beat Ward which is a big if, then you should get no credit for beating a past his prime fighter?

****** choice of words, he's taking credit away from anything Kovalev accomplishes on fight night.

Sounds like what roach used to do actually.

Ward going to attend the next presser at least?

If he doesn't?

Right.....

..... but, Martin Murray and Pepe Le Pew do it for you..... right ?

never said it was a good division, why when i comment on any other boxer does it go straight back to GGG. Middleweight isnt good and neither is super middleweight.

[Madison Boxing]

you are clearly a clueless part-timer

what you proved in your last 2 posts..... is that you don't know anything about boxing

just another excitable fangirl

oh right, yeah that super middle weight division was unbelievable wasnt it, crammed with talent. When calzaghe dominated it (and dominated kessler), it was cause it was a **** division and got no credit for beating kessler (2 eurobums apparantly). When ward does the same, its an amazing division with top class talent throughout.

I'm an old fart as seen by my join date. I've heard the sh.it sooooooooooooo many times over the years. I am a big fan of Kovalev and enjoyed watching his fight against Hopkins.

BUT. When I see this BARRAGE of "we are gonna kill this guy", "this guy is past-prime", "I'm a killer". I'm sorry, as much as I would like to wish Kovalev the best, this fight is already lost. Kov and co obviously know that its going to be a rough night in the office and this script has played out sooo many times before. I think that Kov is going to find it hard to touch this guy and is going to be a rinse repeat of many mis-matches over the years.

As much as I don't like Ward, Kov is going to be made look silly. I would like to be proven wrong, but Ward is a real natural.

Ward is gonna school Kovalev. Trust me.

There's so many questions hanging over Andre Ward that it makes The Riddler look like the answerman.

[MDPopescu]

If Ward is so washed up, why fight him??? Why not go and find a better opponent???

... because Ward is highest ranked U.S. fighter by the boxing mileux in the U.S.
... because Ward holds the highest +/- ratio among the active U.S. active fighters...
