    Ward HIMSELF admitted he threw low-blows.

    dude shut the hell up

      if anybody should be protesting, it should be andre ward...gets a chance to put a world class elite fighter on his back, and the ref stops it prematurely...as sleep inducing as ward's style is, he needs all the gimmicks he can get to increase his fan base outside of just Oakland...

        Did he say he threw low blows intentionally? I didn't see that video. Any links?

        I'm just telling you what I saw. The "killer" was tamed into a "kitten."

          Now all of a sudden Kovalev gets stopped cause he can't take body shots and now you hate Tony Weeks.... What changed, I thought you loved the fact Tony Weeks allowed rough housing, wasn't all Maidana's fouls against Floyd okay with you?
          Good point.

            What's more is I don't think any of Wards shots were low blows except for the very last punch of the fight. Weeks was already stepping in to call it off while that punch was still in motion. The victor was already decided by the time a real foul landed!
            This is not true. I just watched a replay of the fight ending on a latest thread titled " KO of the year by Andre "the nutcracker" Ward " Anyone interested in the truth should go there and watch the replay of the stoppage. The last blow of the fight was very low and Weeks had a clear view of that punch. He had not yet started over to the boxers to stop the fight and didn't stop the fight until a few seconds after the final punch. He had plenty of time to call the punch low and give Kovalev up to 5 minutes to recover but he awarded the fight to Ward instead. It's obvious you love Ward and hate Kovalev. The film doesn't lie but you are either lying or mistaken.

I recall all of the outrage over Weeks following that fight. Truth was, Maidana and Floyd were both using dirty tactics in that fight, so Weeks let them sort it out. Floyd still cried like a b***h for help though.

              Floyd still won. you would never see him turn his back like a *****.

              ward bullied kovalev from the first bell

                  Why would It have to be Intentional? Most low blows are accidental.

                      I agree with you. The guy I was responding to said Ward himself admitted to throwing low blows. That implies intention.
