People had been saying for a long time that Kovalev was essentially training himself. This didn’t come about suddenly. It could be a difference in personalities, something even Jackson acknowledged. Kovalev ran his sessions, not the other way around.
Wlad was legendary. Don’t let anyone tell you he wasnt just because he didnt have that “thing” in common with any of the other names mentioned, and that’s being American. If Wlad was american and ruled with impunity for damn near a decade we’d be singing a different tune in america about hw boxing and that’s just being honest.
Ward finding out Kovalev wasnt that hard of a puncher? He got dropped the first fight..clean.
It was more of Ward being forced to do that (fight that way) and was able to get away with some things that, although illegal, stood (Ward was doing his thing, if the ref doesnt stop it that’s a different problem).
Stop getting bothered by what fighters say...much less a f uckin’ Russian who’s killed a man in the ring and has gone on about his business and become wildly successful and great in his division AFTER the fact. He’s a fighter not a politician. I hate to say it but not all trainers are created equal and beyond that, not all fighters thrive...even under the best trainers. Kov and Jackson had been strained even during and before the Ward fights. Boxing wasn’t “wronged” what kind of Shakespearean poetic justice are you looking for? A guy paid for services he was unhappy with. Get over it.
And wlad never “traded” like he was Holyfield lr somethin wtf lmao. His entire game plan was the opposite. His approach WAS different, but it got him KOd multiple times. He had an amazing trainer who then went on to fix that issue and make him one of the most dominant Heavyweights in history
