Kovalev's headlocks/clinching/holding

[firstborn]

He holds but Ward was a initiator of this situations ,i thought its clear,if a guy bumrush you ,you have no choice but hold

Kov could have side stepped, pivoted or used his excellent timing to catch Ward as he was rushing in.. Nice try but no excuses are needed for either fighter. I look forward to the rematch.

yep its so easy to run from guy rushing to you and huging ,Ward dont work inside like Hatton or Rios ,or Chavez sr ,He hug and try to punch while huging.

Kovalev was the one holding, not Ward.

Ward hugged Kovalev out of his mind... Kovalev got robbed!

Kovalev was doing it to prevent Ward fighting on the inside. He could have took a step back and countered, he chose to hold.

it is boxing right?

I mean you could be inventing a whole new sport... that would be crazy!!!

Anyways I though Ward was just supposed to lay down.

Pethetic troll

Don't have much choice when someone wraps an arm around your neck and puts you in an headlock.

i thought that's when he should headlock him. The clinching wasn't bad to the point where there both just leaning at each other and ones holding. Ward still did work and so did Kov ref didn't always break it either let them work out if it. idk i thought this was a good fight.

Kovalev went mental because he's close to humans in a contact sport... . . .

Hey what brand are you wearing, my GF wears these pink ones with wings.

Why race bait?

No come on now, Kovalev was rough house, using head locks and pushing on the back of Ward head Byrd had to warn him a few times and that is fine to me it didn't take away from the fight at all
