This guy needs to be on suicide watch if he loses the rematch.

... 'funny thing' is I repeatedly posted this vid hereunder on this thread... You're welcome to watch it and then come here again and "share your experience"... ffs...

That video was entertaining. So many times it says Kovalev is holding..but he has to to prevent Wards dirty tactics. So essentially the video acknowledges that Kovalev fought dirty but excuses it because if he didn't Ward was gonna do something dirty.

Hmmm...how about seeing it thus way....Ward ducks the jab and comes in to close distance to bring the fight inside. Kovalev pushes Wards head down to slow him down and negate any effect of a body punch. Kovalev initiates a clinch to force a reset. Ward makes sure that the tactic at least cost Kovalev some energy by putting his weight on Kovalevs waist.

As for Wards head being down while he's coming in to close distance..its called hiding your chin. It serves two purposes protection and dissuades the opponent from planting and punching at the risk of a butt. It's the same thing as Kovalev putting his elbow up. Defense from punch and a bit of deterrent to Ward trying to close distance. The objective is to win not beat the other guy at the thing his is best at.

You know, I think Kovalev flat out destroying Ward is much more likely than most think. I don't expect it, but I think there's a better chance Ward gets flattened easily than Ward wins easily.

He should really stop with the repetitive interviews and focus on the task at hand. I, like many others, had him winning the first fight. However, his constant whining does nothing for him other than make him look petulant. He should just take the silent assassin approach and then, if he wins, go off about how he was robbed. Peace.

I don't think he is terribly excited about having to fight Ward again. The stuff he says seems to be more for him than it is for us. Kovalev may very well get the win in two weeks. I just dont feel like he wants to go to war again to get it.

U may be right bro. Either way, I am really looking forward to this one.

Kovalev needs to knockdown Ward at least once to win this time.

um, you do realise that only one of the guys you mentioned is even in kovalevs weight class and he has fought a single legit guy yet?

You are right Kovaleva don't have the balls to fight Beterbiev at 175 so no way he will move up (LIKE ANDRE WARD DID TO FACE HIM) to face Gassiev & Usyk... Kovaleva a bully who only fight guys supposed to be less powerful than him, and despite that he still lose to Ward...

But the point is that Kovaleva should prove that is a real badass by fighting a big puncher as himself or a bigger puncher as him, and not just playing that fake badass

And keep your intellectual "um" into your @rs...
