Comments Thread For: Kovalev's Trainer Jackson Tried To Jump Ship To Andre Ward's Team?

[paulf]

WHY IN HELL would anybody believe what J Prince says? This guy is full of ****. He claims to be a man of God, when all he is is a gangster. Rick Reeno you should be ashamed of your reporting. Boxingscene should suspend your ass. How are you going to publish a story like this where you don't even mention anything about reaching out to JDJ for his side of the story? Is boxingscene.com now publishing "rumors"? Who paid for this story?

It doesn't even make sense. Of course some Ward fans will chew it up but anybody with half a brain would have to reject this as pure tabloid. If this were true it paints JDJ as a very weak man. It says JDJ wants to be on the Ward side because he hates how Kovalev treats him but if he can't be in Ward's corner (as an assistant) he'll take his pay check with Kovalev because his dignity is worthless. That's what Rick Reeno and J Prince want the boxing fans to believe about JDJ. I agree this fight must not be selling well.

There are right ways to promote a fight. They've ruin that. Could it be that they're acknowledging how terrible they are at promoting this fight and this is their cheap answer at promoting? A bunch of ****!

If someone like James Prince's is going to put it out there, then it's going to be published. Mind games, gossip to sell the fight, truth.... makes no difference. JDJ talks to the media a lot, I'd expect some sort of rebuttal to hit the internet in the next day or two..... if it's untrue.

The only thing I believe about this situation is that James Prince is spreading the rumor. Apparently JDJ is also in business with James Prince as Bryant Jennings trainer. So what do you think might happen to that gig if JDJ comes out too strong against the rumor? It's very unethical behavior on the James Prince side, even if it were true he would just be throwing JDJ under the bus.

I hope Kovalev doesn't fall for all the very silly mind games but it's wrong for Prince to be out there trying to ruin JDJ's reputation and possibly putting JDJ's livelihood jeopardy. This dude doesn't care about anyone but himself.

Translation: He wanted to say Kovalev "*** you" by going to the opposite corner.

Typical mind games by a scumbag team coWard.. I hope Kovalev punches him so hard that he will retire Ward. Typical scumbag tactics, first they try to paint him as racist, then vodka drinker now this. coWard b1tch is going down hard. And they want to be respected ???? bunch of scumbag shysters - SMH

racist vodka chugging ****** scumbag kkkovalev. he has been making nonstop excuses about why he lost the fight.. but somehow he was "robbed". he blames his coach, blames training too much.. the guy is a clown. everybody should've seen this coming. kovalev told jdj to shut up in the corner after round one. jdj is only there for a check. he takes that disrespect from that russian scum simply for money. times must be hard. let him get whooped with nothing but russians on his team just to see who he'll blame next.

[hyeduk]

Again, the Ward's team bringing this racist card...Russians vs Americans, these guys are racist themselves...jealous cos Eastern Europeans have balls to fight on the U.S. oil and collect those belts
