    Prime Ward vs. Kovalev

    Now, Kovalev got the past-it Ward who had seemed pretty ringrusty since his return. Obviously, the Ward that Kovalev fought was nowhere near the Ward who tore the Super Six tournament apart years ago.

    Still, Ward spanked Kovalev twice and pretty much exposed him... What if Kovalev had fought prime Ward? Back when Ward was almost unhitable and had a much higher workrate?

    I think it would have been an absolute shutout, possibly even a stoppage due to the massive difference between them.

    TBH, I'm not even sure Kovalev would be able to beat the Froch and Kessler that prime Ward defeated. He's probably around their level.

    In USA, Russia or a neutral territory? Location of battle matters these days!

      USA, of course. Where else?

      I would love if they fought in Russia, though. Then I won't have to stay up all night waiting for the fight.

        kovalev was never the same after killing roman simikov. prime kovalev literally kills prime ward. its a shame the past it kovalev dominated ward and got robbed and then ward ran away into retirment with another win after low blowing him over and over.

          Dude, Ward won, two times, he would have won a third and fourth time too. Lightning doesn't strike twice. If Ward and Kovalev fought again, then what? What will your excuse be next time?

          Kovalev had been active ever since the Simakov fight and he really tried to hurt Pascal, besides scoring one knockout after another. Kovalev is not affected by Simakov's death, at least not regarding his fighting style, and he doesn't give a bigger **** about his opponents security more now than before that fight. If anything, he has gotten more aggressive.

            Do you really believe that? The rematch must have tore you apart. I saw a close first fight followed by a conclusive stoppage in the rematch. The straight right hand finished Kovalev, he already wanted out before the low blows. Can't believe I'm still posting about these fights. Happy New year.

              Boxing fans are so ****** and don't think...people trash talk Ward and say he's overrated but had Kovalev beat him I could use that against you. People really don't think at all. If you say a fighter is trash, and your fighter beats him, don't be mad if we don't give him credit. Based on your words.

                I guess why I know now why your rep is red.
                really, a very biased and ****** post.

                Kovalev won the first fight and was tied in the second one and Ward resorted to low blows....

                    fact of the matter is most thought he lost the 1st fight and the 2nd fight was ended with illegal shots, blatantly illegal shots. Seem to be a lot of psychics on this site 'ward was going to stop him anyway' oh yeah cause theres never been a fighter in the history of the sport who recovered from being wobbled lol. Might aswell just end every fight once someones stunned 'its over, he would lose anyway'.
