Andre Ward took to Twitter to respond to Kathy Duva's critical comments of the newly crowned light heavyweight champion. Duva whose company, Main Events, promotes Kovalev told BoxingScene.com for a story posted Thursday that Kovalev had "figured out Ward."

If the first fight only did 160,000 PPVs, why put the rematch on HBO PPV?

K knows he has to KO Ward ! It's pure shame for boxing to be so wretched corrupt !!

Ward to save face must face K in the Spring !! If he gets out of this fight it will definitely go down hard on his legacy .

Roc nation has a major opportunity here. Put the fight on prime time TV it will be massive. they can't receive from ppr but would be doing themselves a huge favor by going on prime time TV.
