Has anybody lost respect for kovalev lately ?

[iamboxing]

A full grown man who whines always looks bad, more so when you're famous and keep tweeting about it to your fans - it makes you look petty and weak mentally. Be like Ali after the first Frazier fight.

Well, he outright got robbed. He has every right to voice his opinion and vent his anger. Anybody in his position would have done the same. If anything Ward should be the one criticised for shying away from a rematch.

robbed or lost a close fight that could have been a draw or went either way????

[VatoMulatto]

No, because fighters b1tch about losses all the time. No matter how he feels about the outcome he did indeed LOSE the fight. Hopefully he comes back stronger than ever and use this loss to motivate him in future fights.

I think he is justified to complain about the loss. The polls I've seen have the big majority of viewers, both fans and boxing writers scoring the fight for Kovalev. Ward got the win and he complains more about people saying he lost than Kovalev does about losing a fight he and most others thought he won. Why should he accept a loss if he thinks he clearly won the fight? Did Pacquiao accept his loss to Bradley? Did Lara accept his loss to Williams? Ward vs Kovalev was closer than those fights but it's the same type of thing. It's in most fighter's nature to complain if they lose a fight they believe they deserved to win.

PAC did accept that loss
Even clapped when they announced Bradley as the winner
He said that's boxing
He stfu and came back stronger
Same as when Marquez did this...

Same again,that's boxing we will rise again
I respect that
But then you look at how he handled the loss to floyd

I don't like Kovalev's personality much but I didn't lose any respect for him.

Do you guys think Ward wouldn't be constantly complaining if he had 3 belts, went to Russia to defend his belts, knocked down Kovalev, won the fight in most people's eyes, and then somehow lost a decision from 3 Russian judges?

He would be throwing a hissy fit, complaining about corruption, saying he will never "get a fair shake", etc.
