Comments Thread For: Ward: Media Said Kovalev Was Invincible, I Expected More From Him

[kennethjohn]

114-113 was a fair score

More as an a second gear, which he mentioned that and Kovalev didn't have a second gear. It was actually Ward who had the far superior second half and Kovalev tiring. Also, Ward wasn't too impressed with Kovalev's power, so that falls under expecting more.

Now why would you go and spoil it, I like when posters just make up b.s. like the one you replied to.

The more Ward talks the more I start too think not even he believes he won.

media also said you lost that fight. at least most of them

damn props to ward for taking a fight in which he expected to be dropped and outlanded in most the rounds.

except on earth where people overwhelmingly had kovalev winning. biased humans

I've never seen such a surprised look on someones face when the decision was read out.

Ward didn't even believe he won that fight and the more he talks, the more it sounds like he's trying to justify the gift he got. There's no way on earth Ward won the majority of those rounds.

Ward is a clown, Son Of Gift lost that fight, or at best, he won it by the slightest of margins.

What a smug douchebag this guy is, cant believe some people actually buy his fake nice guy persona

Same here. Have you seen his Instagram account after the fight? He kept like posting his accomplishments, kind of like trying to hype himself into believing he won.

I don't think he won.

This phuking clown Ward keeps running his mouth....I love that he is finally showing people how fake he has always been.

And this is how you hype up a fight! At some point, I think Ward acknowledged that he's easier to dislike by the masses than to like. I think he's embracing that a little bit to hype the fight. The rematch will be on PPV and it only helps his bottom line if more people tune in whether it's to support him or support Krusher because they hate him... Has negotiations for the rematch officially started yet though?

Genuinely asking this as I always struggle to tally rounds properly off the top of my head. With Ward winning, does that mean the judges only thought Kovalev won 4 rounds?

They scored it 7 rounds to 5 in favour of Ward which would usually make it 115-113, but add the knockdown and it becomes 114-113, which all the judges had.

Two of the judges had Ward winning every round from the last 6 rounds, which is nonsense.

[Marvlus Marv]

I actually lip read a conversation between Ward and Kovalev when they were clinching during the final round. Ward said, ''Ain't gonna be no rematch'' and Kovalev replied, ''Don't want one".

[TheUptownKid]

I mean consensus is kov lost at least 5 of the last 7 rounds. That's unexpected. I feel him and I feel like in his way he's mayweathering you clowns. Saying things to rile up fan bases to see him get beat down. Hatred pays better than love and respect.

[Weltschmerz]

STFU you arrogant piece of shit Andre Ward.

Son Of Gift. Ha!!!!!!!!!

Serious note, I was rooting for Ward and I had him losing a close fight. When the score cards were read I swore to myself that they were all in favor of Kovalev.

I think I'll root for Kovalev in the rematch. Ward is getting on my nerves. He acts like he put on some masterclass. He barely survived.

[Zaryu]

Ward is probably just getting back at Kovalev for his comment of overestimating Ward and insinuating he (Kova) might've over trained, hence why he gassed at the end.

As long as Ward honors the rematch I'm fine with him. I personally thought Kovalev deserved the win and keep his titles by winning 6 rds and having an extra point with the knockdown.
