Ward going to woop his ass

I don't care what anyone says, that video was funny as hell. I'm not letting Kovalev off the hook for racist sentiments in the past. But, it disappoints me that people are getting worked up over this vid.

Thank you sir, I agree 100%

Kovalev is a horrible human being and a **** role model. Doesn't have anything to do with what goes on in that ring though. Ward is better than him. It's really that simple.

In this country, say something racially motivated, racial slurs, comments, and someone will be branded a racist and rightfully so. Freedom of speech does not mean without consequence. Social standing, jobs, friendships, everything is compromised by a moment (or a lifetime) of ignorance.

ummm Tyson or Hopkins never been branded a racist... :/

If this is just being done to sell the fight and sheep like you go where the shepard sends you - to the HBO box office site to buy a PPV ticket for the fight - then all well and good.

But didn't Pascal already pull this particular race card on Kovalev and play it to death before his rematch with the big, bad Russian racist, who's best friend in boxing is none other than Bernard "I'll Never Lose To A White Boy" Hopkins?

A) I don't assume anything is based on selling tickets and using that as a possible excuse is lame as hell and AGAIN, you have ignored the fact that this is not the first time Kovalev has made racial comments, not even the second time he has so go ahead and kid yourself by continuing to ignore those facts. B) Hopkins and Pascal have absolutely nothing to do with this and anyone with an IQ above a dead frog knows that two wrongs don't make a right. No one here is giving a pass to anyone else.

You are right and i am in no way trying to suggest that we should tolerate racist comments but we should understand that not all people are big thinkers who will reject what is a socially acceptable . Kovalev is just a simple guy who is a products of racist society.

Very true, and it is what it is.

I didn't see Kov's post, so I don't know if it was racist or not, but some of you might be over reacting, because you're used to the standard castrated, p u s s y, white males of America.

I try to love and respect all people, and don't condone racist BS, but most American white males have been made to be scared of their own shadow, and many are like p u s s y lap dogs now, who are scared to open their mouth.

I'm sure Russian men say many things that androgynous American p u s s i e s wouldnt even consider saying.

kovalev is a racist vodka chugging bear hugging excuse making scumbag. he's lucky ward doesnt stoop to his level. he has too much class for that. but virgil hunter ripped that camp to shreds in the press conference. they still haven't recovered from it. where is that lame duck john david jackson? i guarantee that when jackson officially breaks away from that camp or gets fired he'll give an in depth interview exposing this russian racist ****** scum.
