i dunno if you could classify this as a masterclass...would you?
i would say it might be one step below that...maybe a notch below...thats about where id put it
ward had kovalev figured out...and did some serious work...kovalev had no shot that night and i thought dude was a beast...he still pretty much is...i have no qualms with kovalev....but man andre was brilliant that night

these EE guys dont like when someone can effectively fight inside and is tough....they like to stand at ideal range and box...if someone allows them to do that they are hard to beat..most of them are strong and good and putting punches together at ideal range....when u change that up on them tho they sometimes look pretty uncomfortable
