    And you probably believe Manny beat Floyd and beat JMM if it wasn't for that "Lucky Punch"...

      If Kovalev wins in a brutal fashion, people will claim Ward is shot.
      I won't!!! This is a 50/50 fight BUT 99% of the time the pure boxer usually always wins.

        It's a clear prejudice against smaller fighters, it's like if they don't watch the fights than they don't count. I could understand this arguement in the 90's to 2010 but a lot of these fights are readily available on YouTube.

        I expect a lot of opinions to change if Kovalev wins. I can't remember the last time a fight was unseated from #1 while still dominating top fighters without losing.

          What are you even taking about? We're taking about Gonzales, Ward, and Kovalev and you bring up Mayweather, Pacquiao, and Marquez. Get on topic.

            Depends. Does Ward win by KO? Or by hugging and points?

            I love skills, but they need to lead to hurting the opponent. Boxing is a combat sport. Somebody has to get beat up. If you can't beat up the other guy, you're not the best P4P.

                the average american is a morbidly obese out of shape slob.only an idiot like you would say some dumb **** like that.

                  No disrespect to Gonzalez but the winner of this figh, assuming no robbery or DQ, should be considered the best p4p in the sport, unless of course a certain fighter un retires.

                      When you get done..winner of this fight will be ranked p4p #1
