the way he trains reminds me of back when Cotto thought he could fight with a cheerleader as lead trainer and when he ignored everything his uncle told him........no pace to it....Kovalev has great talent with how he manages distance and leading/countering with the jab, but is soft otherwise because he doesn't like getting pushed in training.....
What??? He made an actual THUD sound on impact at the end of round 2, and landed at least 30 body shots throughout the fight. He landed a **** TON of body shots on Kovalev, and Kovalev COULD NOT handle them.
Ward blew his mind when he came out right handed.
Kovalev was whipped mentally from the start...those body shots sealed the deal.
Kovalev outlanded Ward in 5 of the 7 rounds, Ward landed like 2 more bodyshots after 7. Lederman had and most others had Kovalev ahead by a couple rounds. Ward landed tons of lowblows throughout the fight and the ref (obviously a brother) played along nicely.
What drained Kovalev was the lowblows, if it was the other way around Kovalev would have been deducted a point already and at the end would have been DQed.
But we are in America right.
Still in denial? Kovalev wasn't even close to being on Ward's level and never will be. A 3rd fight would be beyond lop-sided. Andre got him entirely figured out and Sergey ain't getting any younger, so that stamina issue is here to stay.
the problem is "low blows" were borderline shots to the mid section. kovalov also was hurt and almost down by a right hand. ward eat him up. "low blows" are nothing more then excuses coming from your side in a sad pathetic attempt to not give ward any credit. even kovalov said the right hand didn't hurt him at all when we all saw him on qeer street from the right. u guys are a sad case of turd truly indeed. enjoy your crow.
