Kovalev: "Ward is not special like everyone claims, he's a simple fighter"

[alexguiness]

Ward does something's very, very well.

Especially his signature 'Billy GOAT head charge combination.'

Nobody in boxing has found a way to neutralize this lethal and exciting attack.

[A-Wolf]

He definitely lost some rounds but definitely not enough to lose the fight. Some folks just have no shame and it's pretty sad to see

Definitely? It was close. The judges went the other way.

Kovalevs acting like a poor sport & and f.ucking b.itch he should show some class

He started strong and faded towards the end not doing enough to win the rounds, making excuses because he Russian f.ucking lame

Everyone sh.its on Cotto & Marquez for this type of sh.it, Kovs acting worse

[Madison Boxing]

I said it before the fight. Ward is very good but he's no where near a may weather or a Roy Jones. Was eating jabs at will.

Kovalev made him a simpler fighter last night. It was really stunning. Kovalev's never had the best defense, but he gave Ward so few options offensively. That's why it took Ward so long to get into the fight, because Kovalev's footwork and range control, along with his accuracy during their exchanges, wouldn't let Ward establish an attack. He was really great in this fight.

[Combat Talk Radio]

I agree with Kovalev. All I heard was "Master boxer", "P4P no.1", "Super slick" yada yada, yet he got dropped and outlanded, how does that happen to the best?

This isn't a good video for the Krusher. He sounds like Manny after the TBE fight, Postol after the Crawford fight.

Reality is that it's his job to (A) cut off the ring and (B) prevent the clinching with effective aggression. All three fighters (TBE, Crawford, Ward) do one thing better than most everyone else: nullify offense. Well, the only way to counter that is with pressure and effective aggression. If you let it get to you, you're going to lose.

How many times are we going to see this outcome before they do something about it?
