Ward vs Kovalev II should be staged in Moscow...

[BattlingNelson]

with 3 russian judges and a russian referee.

I think there was a contractual agreement that the rematch wouldn't be allowed to take place in either California or Russia. It's a non starter.

What do you think?

Absolutely. Great idea...

They're probably heading back to Vegas, with an international judging panel. The latter will mostly be for appearances of course, since both teams approved the US judging panel the first time without incident.

Expect Stanley Christodoulou, Anek Hongtongkam or other well known non-US judges to fly out to Vegas to occupy at least 1 or 2 of the spots.

Agree! Rematch will be in Russia but American fighters can't go to there.

I THINK Vegas requires their own judges but I could be wrong. This rule came about in 2013. The promoters have the right to object to the selection of judges.
