Ward giving him that Nor-Cal stare...Now he gotta Back it Up

[Pigeons]

Kovalev is in his head. I saw James Prince try to reassure Ward at the end, saying "he turned from you. We all in his head," and Ward tried to smile, but you could tell he wasn't as sure as Prince. He knows Kovalev can be even more dangerous when you piss him off. Plus, Kovalev cut the staredown short, and turned from Ward, because he's sick of their bull****, and their lies about the first time. It's not Ward in his head, it's that he just doesn't want to waste time with any more of their bs. He knows he's the better fighter, and just wants to skip all the bs and get into the ring. I think Team Ward is reading the signs wrong this time in a big way, and it could end up very badly for Ward in the ring.

Crazy already 2 big unification fights with ward and kovalev, and then you got Adonis Stevenson in the background not being put in with any real credible opponents. I like Adonis but cmon man get in the mix

Kovalev before:

-Are you a man or girl you scary motherfcker?
-Be ready motherfcker I'll finish your career.
-You should call yourself Son of Kovalev.
-Ward might say he is injured and pull out of rematch.
-I don't like Ward I want to punch him in the face.
-He slaps like a woman.

But today when Ward was right in his face...silence..and then waits until he's walking away before he says something:

Ward has got this under control

right now, Kovalev needs a mentor

a knowledgeable experienced mentor, like Hunter

someone to help him calm down, chill, ignore Ward, focus

[aboutfkntime]

Ward looks like he can see the end coming in a prophecy.
Kovalev looks relaxed.

I thought exactly the opposite

Ward looks composed, confident

Kovalev looks uptight, uncomfortable

no big deal either way

[aboutfkntime]

Imagine fighting an even angrier Kovalev.


Good luck

if Kovalev is angry, it's over

he will need to be right on his game with Ward

Ward will be better this time, no question

don't like what I'm seeing and hearing from that camp
