Comments Thread For: Tony Weeks Owes Apologies to Sergey Kovalev and Andre Ward

[fightfanjoe]

One other question regarding this fight, Why In the F**k Is race continually brought up? I don't give a f**k If Ward was purple with pink polka dot tattoos. The fight should not have ended the way It did. That referee had no business stealing Wards shining moment or Kovalev's opportunity for a miraculous comeback or his demise.

Dude, he was badly hurt and not defending himself. There is no standing eight count in pro boxing, and sitting on the ropes does not count as a knockdown. The ref had no choice. I also didn't see kovalev complain when it was stopped -
He was done. Wake up.

There are many past fights where a particular fighter looked like they were "done". If we went by your way of thinking we wouldn't have classic fights such as Gatti vs Ward, Castillo vs Corrales, Ali vs Foreman ect.

The ref had a choice, make the proper call when a fighter Is fouled, as he did In the second round when Ward was warned for hitting low.

Why didnt weeks owe mayweather an apology in the first maidana fight? Everyone seemed to be okay with him allowing all that fouling in that fight, u guys are foul

REALLY??? We gonna go this route??? How far back you want to go now??? Maybe the judges from the 1st fight owe Kovalov an apology. I've watched that fight a bunch but Kovalov should of won that one. But you propbably had it 13 rounds to 2 for Ward.

Man looking back at Dre's career dude be looking scrawny compared to Kova 2. Dude looked like a beast and fought like a Crawford/Spence combined and then some. If I were Kovalev, I'd stay away from Andre Ward.

Ward is only getting better! Notice the quick turn around??? That's when hes at his BEST! He's P4P #1 and if ANYONE says different is just trolling. I also still think Kovalov is P4P Top 10. But BI@TCHES and CASUAL FANS like to throw boxers in the TRASH once they LOSE.

My favorite boxer of ALL time has MANY loses.

I actually thought kov won that one or a draw not sure why u brought that up

NSAC is corrupt.

You could put the result of the first fight down to "just one of things that sometimkes vhappen in boxing" But what I saw in that rematch was corruption at work.

[aboutfkntime]

FACT: Weeks should have allowed that fight to continue

FACT: but he did not, and there is no point crying about it

FACT: the better man won, and Kovalev was done

My bad homie!!! Just tired of ppl tripping once a fighter loses. They act like the boxer SUKS! And it HURTS both. Because it takes away a GREAT win for 1 and a GREAT loss for the other... I'm just glad REAL experts know.

Kovalov is STILL P4P Top 10. And WARD is P4P #1.
