        Fine, but that wasn't the reason why he lost this fight. Boxers get punched low in the nuts all the time but they shake them off and continue fighting or sometimes they just retaliate if the fighter doesn't get a penalty or at least a warning from the referee.

        So stop making excuses. The real reason Kovalev lost this fight was because he even admitted it himself. He just didn't try hard enough. He was neither mentally or physically prepared for this fight and it showed and that's the bottom line. That's all.

          In the run up to the rematch I watched John David Jackson sit there and say that Kovalev was over trained because he was running 14 miles at a time and Jackson asked him why he was doing that since he wasn't a marathon runner. So which story is it?

            Fuck!

            That's the guy Kovalev should have had training him for his fight with Nut Krusher Ward!

                Boxing reveals all the weaknesses a fighter has eventually. You've got a weak chin? You probably aren't going to get to a champion level boxer, actually you probably won't get to be a champion without a tremendous chin. Can't stop the jab, you're going to get jabbed to death some fight. Kovalev is soft to the body and has stamina issues, it took an all time great fighter to expose that.

                Some of the weaknesses might not be glaring until you fight the best of the best. That's why fighting top tier competition early and often is the best measure. If you fight 20+ champions, someone is bound to solve your puzzle and find your weakness and exploit it.

                Makes you wonder about GGG vs Canelo. Has GGG been in the ring with enough master class boxers to have his weaknesses exposed? Not sure, but Canelo for sure has.

                I just think no one who ever fought Kovalev had the wits and ability to get inside.

                  You're still repeating this nonsense huh?

                  By Kovalev's latest words and admissions Ward beat him fair and square. Not once did he mention these fake "low blows" as a factor in the fight. He himself is not making that excuse anymore, why are you still doing it for him? I know....I know you're still butthurt.

                  All legal blows debate over. Accept reality and admit Kovalev got his ass kicked.

                      Ok Sonnyboy. That video you posted clearly shows Ward hitting Kovalev part on the belt of his trunks and part below the belt. Those are low blows, always have been and always will be. Unless you have a bent ref in there, of course.

                      Now go away and play with your toys. The grown-ups are busy.
