    One Thing I've Noticed About Ward Fans

    Is that they have the utmost respect for Sergey Kovalev. Many have Kovalev ranked in the top 3 pound for pound, consider him to be an honorable champion and are really looking forward to seeing Ward test his skills against this monster.

    It's very rare, going into these major fights where you see a fan base have so much respect for the opponent and aren't making numerous threads bashing the opponent.

    Major props to Andre Ward fans for setting an example and I can't wait for this November 19th showdown.

    Everyone in boxing has respect for Kovalev. What's so great about giving props to someone everyone gives props to?

      Just with my experience in major fights there is a lot of back and forth ******ed bull**** that goes on between fans of both fighters.

      You don't see that with Ward vs Kovalev so I anticipate we will see a lot more mature and intelligent boxing discussions leading up to this fight. More so than we are used to.

            It would be foolish to make out that Kov isn't a massive challenge.

            The GGG defense force everybody. The worst fan base around these parts.

              I've seen a lot of Ward fans say that he will beat kov easy so it's not all of them that respect kov.

                Of course we do. Kova is a monster. He's the man to beat at light heavy. Adonis? he can kiss my a$$.

                  It is nice. It's easy too, because Kovalev is very hard to hate on. He has one questionable move (dropping out of the purse bid against Stevenson) and even that questionable move was basically to preserve the possibility of this fight happening. Other than that, he has done everything right and earned his reputation. There's nothing fake or manufactured about him.

                    There are not many Ward fans at all. List me a couple real Andre Ward fans on this site except "New England".

                    The guys who now suddenly pretend to be Ward fans, are mostly the demograpic that hates white fighters for whatever reason (take a guess) and have no other choice than to support Ward.

                    That's why you see these so called Ward fans usually talking about GGG most of the time, they are more GGG haters than actual fans of Ward.
