Yep. Doesn't matter who fights Ward, they're always gonna be at a disadvantage. And not from Ward's talent, which he has a good bit of. It's Ward getting too many breaks, too many fouls being ignored, etc etc. Anyone can become discouraged when a b.s. mountain is in front of them. I'm sure Kovalev will return very strong in the fall.

Yeah I agree, the referees were on Ward's side in both bouts, it was disgusting to see. Kovalev lost the rematch due to fatigue more than's Ward's doing. He needs to work on his cardio and get into better shape next time around.

You'll get no argument from me on the fatigue factor. That's an issue he definitely needs to conquer. Looking forward to seeing what he took away from his last fight. The fight this fall and his next 1-2 fights will tell us everything about his skill set and longevity.
