Ward fans, did you know Kovalev has been training with Usyk and Lomachenko?

[Larry the boss]

That's quality sparring. But those are honorable men and CLEAN fighters.

He needs to be ready for Ward's dirty, illegal tactics.

Sergei Krusher Kovalev has been training with Usyk and Lomachenko the last couple weeks.. how do you feel about that?

I think it's a good indication that Kov is going all out to prepare for Ward which is commendable. Whether or not it all translates to a victory is a different story. Just like Ward claiming other pros have been offering him tips to prepare for Kov. Doesn't matter if you can't follow through on fight night.

Kinda reminds me of Oscar giving everyone he knew the "blueprint."

Ahhh ****! Here we go! We got some words being traded prior to the meeting between Larry and Freedom in less than a week. This is good promotion.

You two are the REAL main event!

Last week's news. I think it's great, really great that he's training with Usyk. That's a very relevant partner for this fight.
Loma, not so much. Not only is he significantly smaller, with a much shorter reach, he doesn't do anything the way Ward does. Not that it would hurt his prep in any way, just that it means little to nothing in terms of advantage.
Usyk will be important though.

Larry isn't going to show up.

My plane to Las Vegas leaves on Thursday afternoon.

I think I might had missed the real point of this thread.

I think what TS is doing here is building up another excuse for when Kovalev loses.

"He had no real training partners. He was training with a 130lber."

Sort of like when Donaire said he trained over the phone for Rigo. Which btw was a classic excuse.

forgot about that

Thank you to the few genuine posters that replied.

So pumped for this one!

You're ridiculous.

Chilemba for preparation was great.. and Usyk as training? Even better. This will be an awesome fight!

Who would seriously believe that crap?

I've never seen Usyk fight, so who knows what type of look he's giving Kovalev to help anticipate Ward.

Kovalev got put in there with Isaac Chilemba and looked like ****; folks bringing up Usyk, but if he was around in the prior camp, what good did that do?
