        Wrong thing, Kov already outboxed and schooled Ward! He said before the first fight he wanted to show world he can box against someone most believed to be the more superior boxer, it turns out they were wrong(so was I).

        Kov is a master boxer with very good distance control, great jab that you can consider it to be a power punch since he has a lot of power behind it, moves well for a guy that's on the Euro side, and is an underrated tactical fighter!

        The way he devised ways to negate Ward's fouling tactics was ingenious!

        He just needs to train to be in greater shape, don't overdo it, train for more energy and tweak some things like(side stepping more with uppercuts when Ward ducks below the waist), and put more behind those short hooks cuz for some reason the judges neglected Kov was walloping Ward with those when he tried to come on the inside!

        If Kov does have more energy in the 2nd fight than he did in the 1st, Ward Will have even more to worry about!

          nobody was schooled in this fight, he schooled him for 3 rounds I agree but the fight happened to be 12 rounds... I didn't see a schooling from either side what I saw was a great chess match by 2 great fighters. he avoided the inside fighting by holding which Is usually spoken against, it was a good plan but it tired him out.

            Yeah, as the taller, longer fighter that's what he needs to do when he gassed out against a guy who superior work on the inside played a role in the outcome of the fight.

                  I'll give you a YouTube clip of the dirty tactics Ward does to gain an advantage when he fights, I'll give him this it's a clever tactic to end fights early(Mikkel Kessler) when facing solid offensive guys, or when facing grimy and gritty opponents(Sakio Bika)!

                  It makes your opponent weary of not just punches but now elbows, headbutts, and low blows which is a clever strategy!

                  Oh because it's Andre Ward it's inside fighting, if Ward was some upcoming prospect or unknown fighter most of you would be likely saying the man needs to calm it down on the fouling especially at his level but it's apart of his game so he can't stop doing it!

                  Fair play, which is why Kov gave him a taste of his own medicine in the fight even though he got more warnings as the CHAMPION than Ward did who initiated most of it due him knowing he can't compete with Kovalev on outside and was meeting someone who can match him physically as well!

                  Check out the link of the dirty tactics, you'll either be like Ward fans in denial like their hero or like a true boxing fan you'll see that at Ward's level he shouldn't have to use fouling tactics as excessive as he does to try to win fights!

                    Check the YouTube vid, sorry I thought it was a great chess match as well but it was a schooling and one of the most underrated performances on a p4p fighter in their prime against another that was took away from judges who needs their eyes checked and to be suspended immediately!
