4-3 Ward, close fight before the stoppage, which was too early in my opinion.
After two fights, I think it's clear that Andre is just the better boxer.
Had nearly the same score. First round was closer, wouldnt mind if someone scored it for Kovalev, but I also gave Ward the sixth round. Kov did better, but Ward landed some clean counterpunches.
But the overall picture was that Kovalev didnt have any answers for Wards style and his body was already broken down well before the lowblows. Cant see how Kovalev could have change the trajectory of the fight
Ward was winning especially aftr the 3rd. I had Kov winning maybe 2 of the first 3 ( being generous) but it was all Ward after that. Ward was taking over deal with it, Kov went out like a B

I didn't watch the fight. Seen a bit here and there since I woke up but can't make my mind up regarding the "Low blows" or whatnot. From the little that I saw at the stoppage it didn't look like low blows to me, just looks like another boxer who couldn't take the body punches, regarding the stoppage not sure why the ref didn't give Kovalev a standing count. I would watch it properly when I wake up and after work.
