He deserved to win last time, landed more jabs and outlanded the chump in 75% of the rounds, plus dropped him. He thought that being the champion plus being the rightful winner would be enough to earn the decision.
Well, now he knows that the fix is in and he's going to break coWARD down. When chump comes in for the clinch, he's getting pummeled with jabs and uppercuts. The party is ovah for the son of gifts and most likely, his career as well.
Kovalev won't fight reckless, and he won't use too much energy. I think if anything he will start slower and feint more, waiting to catch Ward running in to clinch.
If he starts slower its worse for him. He is up against Andre "S.O.G." Ward, not lil g.
People seem to forget who the f*** Sergey Kovalev is, in that ring the man is a killer, RIP to Roman Simakov. Ward really pi**ed Kovalev off, he better be ready for serious s*** in there, because he just won, and I mean JUST as in it should have been a draw. But damn this could very well be a bad night for Ward.
So if he is a killer like you perceive then why couldn't he beat Ward? Guess Ward had something to do with that....
Most fans agree that Kovalev won the first fight. Referee was blind to Ward's constant holding and well the blind judges will one again be in Ward's corner for this fight. Boxing is an old sport and shady decisions have been around for just as long. Kovalev will be at a disadvantage in the rematch simply because the powerbrokers who control boxing will do everything they can to produce a Ward win. All close rounds will go to Ward, in order for Kovalev even to get a 10-8 round with a knockdown it will have to be devastating or else best he can hope for is 10-9. Heck his best chance is to knock Ward out and thats going to be hard since Ward will be holding for dear life while the referee looks up at the lights and fails to notice. That being said I hope Kovalev wins this even though the cards are stacked against him
Don't lie. kovalev was holding and head-locking the whole fight while Ward was digging that body.
