    Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: Referee's Actions, Stoppage Are Not My Fault

    LAS VEGAS Andre Ward wasn't about to apologize for stopping the knockout artist who had promised to end his career. The IBF, WBA and WBO light heavyweight champion wasn't about to accept any blame for referee Tony Weeks' decision to stop his rematch against Sergey Kovalev in the eighth round, either.

    As usual Ward is honest and humble. He tells it like it is.

      Tony Weeks missed what was happening as far as the low blows but nevertheless look how kovalev was sitting on the Ropes, if Ward
      did not finish him within the last 31 seconds he would have stopped him in the ninth. .

        Early stoppage? Probably

        But Kovalev did himself no favors by bending over and not throwing back

          quitvalev is one dimensional with power and isn't good enough to beat Ward period. Ward is a feather fisted super middle weight that beat the powerful lite heavy weight boogie man twice. that says alot.

            There was no early stoppage. Some of you guys aren't happy until a guy is dead.

            When yourebent over and not even protecting your face while punches are raining down, the fight is over. If you wanna get technical, if you turn your back, the ref is well within his rights to stop the fight.

            How many times did kovalev turn his back?

            If Weeks wasn't so merciful, Kovalev would have left on a stretcher

              Don't be so over dramatic. Kov didn't even taste canvas and beat a 10 count. Watch Matty clarkson v Travis ****inson fight

                Funny how when tony weeks let maidana punch mayweathers balls 4 times in their first fight and let him rabbit punch mayweather 20 times there were no complaints.... These same racist fan boys were praising tony weeks for letting maidana fight dirty and rough up mayweather..... Now these same racist scumbags are bashing tony weeks... Hahaha ohhh how the tables have turned...

                  So you have to taste canvas to seriously get hurt? How many times did the kid who fought Eubanks taste canvas before he almost died? If Ward had a mean streak and Weeks didn't care, Kovalev would've died because Ward's punches aren't strong enough to knock you out cold, but hard enough to do permanent damage from accumulation which is a dangerous recipe.

                  Man you guys don't give a damn about fighters.. This is the level of importance when it comes to you NSB posters:

                  1. Color
                  2. Emotional feelings
                  3. Logical reasoning

                  These are formula's for disaster

                    Ward is NOT the boogeyman

                    he is the one you send to kill the boogeyman








                    and Weeks is the one you send to protect the boogeyman from Ward
