I dont like the stoppage. But the reason probably is that kovalev wanted no more of ward and the referee decided to spare him a knockout.

Ward proved he was the better fighter tonight though. Just hate the weird stoppage. Maybe Weeks saw something from Kovalev we didn't. Maybe Kovalev gave him no choice.

Because he was bent over backwards in some kind of standing fetal position and refusing to fight back
Plus, maybe the no standing 8 count rule was in effect.
