May the best man win...

This fight is too close to call...I wish both fighters a great performance & i hope both get the respect of the fans. Ward is a hell of a fighter, he will need to make it past the 8th round in order to win. Kovalev is too freaking scary, but i do see him breathing hard past the 8th...either way...

Think boxing!!!

I don't think I've been this excited about a fight in a long time.

[SN!PER]

The winner of this fight truly deserves respect from everyone.

Ward's my guy, but if Kovalev is better, so be it. Can't wait to find out who the king of the mountain is. Cheers to both.

My blood is boiling. Fights like this are why I fell in love with the sport. Long Live SOG WARD!

This is literally a super fight of the highest order. I love mma as well, but fights like these truly remind me that nothing can ever replace a match between the highest level boxers in the sport.

Nothing replaces this edge of your seat type feel. No sport can do it for me like boxing. Seriously, may the best man win.

Gut feeling, Ward wins like usual. Just waiting for an OMG moment. I'll be jumping out if my freaking seat if Kovalev finishes Ward. Same for Ward.

Must be one of the best match ups on paper for a long time. 2 of the best p4p in the world, both similar prime age, very similar records, similar size and no excuses can be made either way.

Respect for both guys and their teams for making it happen. It's a shame we have to praise guys for making the best fights, but that's how how it is these days.

I don't really mind who wins this one as long as it's a fair outcome. There's real no shame in losing this fight, they're both top notch fighters.
