Ward fans, how do you defend this?

[ShoulderRoll]

Are you blind?

The punch is on the borderline. Why do you keep acting as if Kovalev got blasted with a full power shot square in the nuts?

75% the glove landed on the legal belt line the other low.

tough call.

one thing is for sure, Kovalev got beat up.

[Hype job]

Here it is in ultra slow-mo including Kovalev's obvious "I just got hit in the balls" reaction:


This leaves no doubt that it was a low blow and Ward, does in fact, slide his arm up after impact to try and hide the fact that it was a low blow. It also shows Weeks was in a position where he could definitely see Ward was hitting low.

Weeks needs to be investigated. He clearly saw that land.

There's nothing "borderline" about this whatsoever. It's a clear punch to the nuts, he motions his fist up at the end of the punch to try and obscure the fact.

[PrinceNaz88]

The low blows won't have had an effect as clearly Kovalev has no balls.

He got hyped up so much as this tough monster and he got stopped by someone who was feather fisted at SMW.

Yeah the ref should not have waved it off but Kovalev was not winning the fight from that stage anyway.

HURT!!!! so hurt u guys will be ok Kov was finished and it wasnt due to low blows. that last one was borderline ill give yall that but he wasnt his square in the nuts. cong**** to ward the feather fisted fake christian!!!!

[Johnny2x2x]

People acting like that was a terrible low blow are whiners. It was just below the belt, but with as high as his trunks wee it was no where near his junk. It was a shot to his abdomen. That shot maybe gets a warning 25% of the time and never gets a point deduction unless the fighter has been warned several times already.

Kovalev fans aren't going to let it go, but it doesn't change the outcome. Kovalev got whipped, Ward is the better fighter. Deal with it.

The letter B is completely obscured by Ward's glove as it lands.

How can that possibly be considered legal?
