I agree with Abel Sanchez.
Ward is a weasel who will do anything to win, including illegal tactics and he hides behind his alleged belief in Jesus to justify the gift. He is not a skilled boxer, he is a skilled mauler who throws just enough punches to keep from getting disqualified. I would not be surprised if he found a way to break his word and get out of the rematch with Kovalev. Beterbiev and Stevenson will be waiting for him then, if he doesn't retire altogether. Do I have an "Amen", Ward?

It was a smart gameplan because Ward is a better inside fighter. Just like in all big fights with well known fighters facing off. All the clinching Kovalev did probably cost him the fight. Because it gave the impression that Ward was controlling the fight. Because of course all the clinching gave the impression that it was a "Ward fight."
BTW, Kovalev didn't pick Ward apart from a distance. I was shocked that Kovalev wasn't outclassed from a distance. And he was able to hold his own from a distance. But to say either guy picked the other apart is ridiculous. Neither guy did very much to seperate himself from the other. Which is why it was a very close fight that could have gone either way.
