    without a doubt, Ward is definitely one of those fighters who smells blood in the water and knows how to finish a man.

        Second fight, fight was competitive but Kov was winning until Ward shocked him with a series of bizarre nutshots that led to a "KO".

        Ward is not better than Kovalev and did not school him, stop with the nonsense.

          So here is the first shot of the final trio of low blows. Look at the angle of Ward's punch, and look at the shorts move upwards around the Hublot logo. This is the first shot that made Kovalev bend forward, and then the last two followed. Are you guys going to say that this is a body shot and that is what made Kovalev bend? How could it hit his body yet make his shorts move upwards at the Hublot logo?

            No video posted (at least for me) Is this just because I have a low post count? or is something up with the site? lol

                I see it now. Weird, since I had no problem seeing the gif in your signature lol

                it's really tough to see from that angle, as the ref is in the way. While the shorts do move, to me the glove looks like it connects right at the bottom of Kov's midsection basically where the Latissimus Dorsi ends. I think we all know this is going to be a hotly debated issue for a while, because it's not like it's an Andrew Golotta low blow lmao

                  It lands pretty much right at the bottom of the H and U letters... That's quite low and pushes the cup right on the nuts. Do you really think at this grazing angle the punch had enough power to make Kovalev bend forward?
                  And there were several low blows in the previous rounds. That takes out a lot on breathing and Cardio.

                    If he is in top condition I think Kovalev is the better fighter.

                      I'll have to rewatch the bout then. I've seen the first one a few times, but come to think of it, the rematch I've only seen once. I don't want to argue on a match that I'm remembering.
