Was GGGs performance the blueprint for kovalev against ward?

[daggum]

stay right up on him lol. ward/Floyd fans are even renaming clinching so it doesn't sound as bad. they are getting quite delusional. he's not cheating hes just staying right up on him! he's not headbutting he's staying right up on his head with his own head!

Stop the triangle theories. No way Kovalev can take that type of approach and win. That will play into Ward's stlyle. I have Ward winning this fight but if Kovalev keeps his composure and work behind his jab(countering), he has a chance to catch Ward. Ward likes to put his head down and come in, step back and upper. Should be a good fight!

[Larry the boss]

hes been boxing (and fouling) not proper fighting, andre clinches rather than exchange punches. Hes said in the past that he doesn't believe he should be in hard fights cause of his health (although hes happy to beat up people like brand and smith).

The man has won national titles, Olympic Gold and world titles as a pro and you wanna tell him how to fight?? lol..sit back and watch him become p4p #1 man

tell me about it, my favourite one is when I saw his headbutting referred to as 'head control'

Ward will stay in Kovalev's chest for as long as he can , he does not want to be on the end on Kovalev's punch's....Sure he will clinch some, but i think he will do most of his work on the inside and smother Kovalev for most of the fight.

uhuh

yeap, he broke it himself by himself alone with no help from no one else. Sweet Lord, the things i have to read.

I was rooting for Brook, now i am a Golovkin fan too.
The guy has it.

The only thing I'm saying is that the fight changed when Brook suffered the injury.

If they fought 50 times, he might break his orbital bone one time.

It's a fight changing injury that happens maybe once every couple hundred thousand fights.

Ward aint Brook man

we shall see

we shall see

you ****ing right

[Nay_Sayer]

Come on man, wards got no power, never going to wobble kovalev. If kovalev comes out firing, ward has 12 rounds he has to get through. Whats the point in wasting early rounds trying to outbox him. Get stuck into him from round one. Sounds crude but that's what maidana did against broner and mayweather and he did alright. Whereas an arguably better fighter in canelo ****ed around trying to outbox mayweather when he cant.

Maidana LOST two out of those three fights, Genius...

he did better than an 8 weight world champ, and the 'face of the sport'. and i think even in the rematch he did better than pacquiao did, scorecards reflect that too if i remember correctly
