Comments Thread For: Jackson: Ward Should Stop Holding; Should Stand & Fight Kovalev

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Sergey Kovalev and his trainer, John David Jackson, insist it is Andre Ward, not Kovalev, that has something to prove in their rematch. Ward won their light heavyweight title fight November 19 in Las Vegas, but Kovalev and Jackson think Kovalev deservedly has received more credit than Ward for the way he competed in their 12-round bout at T-Mobile Arena. Jackson challenged Ward during a conference call Tuesday to limit his holding when they meet again June 17 and criticized the defending champion for what Jackson considers a displeasing style.

Its not holding its dat inside work.

Ward doesn't have the heart or skill to fight kovalev and live to tell about it. Ward will choose the Floyd direction and hold like an octopus to survive hoping for a robbery.

[Lomachenko gold]

Ward might be a C list fighter if his strategy of grappling and leading on with his head isn't allowed. Pathetic how Ward has evaded the rule system all these years. The great USA hope.
