Comments Thread For: John David Jackson: Sergey Kovalev is a Real Assh*le - He Quit!

[W1LL]

John David Jackson is a weak individual. He tried to jump ship midcamp. And now this.

JDJ is acting like a rat....
Any one who knows Kovalev in person or ever met him can tell you this is BS.

the guy who said his coach doesnt teach him anything and just holds the mitts isnt an assh0le?

It's not just the promoters in boxing who can be scummy snakes. It can be almost anybody including your own trainer. Just look at this example.

Yeah no kidding. JDJ is a total scumbag.

This isn't hard to believe. It seems like some people just don't like the messenger. Kovalev only adjustment in the rematch was to fight harder. Guess what, he gassed even faster. I think even fans of Kovalev would admit he's not a nice guy. Hearing it from Jackson just confirm what we all already suspected.

[Robbie Barrett]

Sanchez pretty much said Kovalev was an ******* too.

[BamaSlamma]

Maybe both Kovalev and Stevenson are pieces of ****!

[Dramacyde]

Kovalev is a scumbag alcoholic racist dirty lowlife motha****a!

So everyone thought Ward and his camp was lying!! So it was the truth!

Three months ago, unified light heavyweight champion Andre Ward 32-0 (16 KOs) earned his claim as boxing's top pound for pound fighter and erased any doubts by stopping Sergey Kovalev 30-2-1 (26 KOs) inside of eight rounds in their highly anticipated rematch. Seven months prior, Ward had won a highly disputed decision over the "Krusher".

I don't think JDJ did anything wrong. Even prior to both Ward fights you could see their relationship crumbling. JDJ just put clarity on it by saying Kovalev was becoming impossible to train.

That is the exact same reason Abel Sanchez showed Kovalev the door. JDJ was getting a ton of flack and all the blame placed on him. IMO he deserves to be able to give his side of the story. JDJ has had a rough year. He saw Kovalev lose twice under him, saw Hopkins lose under him and Curtis Stevens also.

He has been forced to give his side of the story. He is a reserved guy and would not be doing this if he didn't feel the need to defend his reputation.
