Comments Thread For: Alvarez Makes Statement, Knocks Sergey Kovalev Out in Seven

[SugarRaRobinson]

Dude I just don't get why Ward gets hyped so much...if you want to back a black fighter back someone like Alvarez, he deserves it.

I think the first Ward fight did ruin Kov really - but only because he reached the pinnacle of his career, clearly won the fight against someone assumed to be his equal, and they robbed him. He never mentally recovered from that. He should have realized life wasn't fair and come back stronger but he didn't.

A mental recovery, and a physical recovery from a K.O.
are worlds apart. Kovs chin was never the same after Wards K.O

Damn man, Kovalev wasnt shot, he wasnt fading fast. Ward didnt ruin him, he didnt under train or over train. He got beat by a hungry determined guy who had waited years for the shot. This is boxing, this is how it goes. Kovalev has three losses. If he can get over this fight he can win another title. Its more mental than anything for him now, people amaze me sometimes.

hes 35 dude and his punch resistance is going. Ward hurt him with a right hand in the rematch and alvarez just iced him, neither are big punchers. Kovalev is done.

****en cry baby. He got his ass kicked by both fighters. ****en excuse maker, lmao.

how is ko'ing a guy with low blows an excuse? its something that is not legal. an excuse is i wore the wrong socks so i lost. having the ref ignore the rules is a pretty big deal. yes you love ward but he cheated. alvarez did not cheat and scored a clean ko. how are they the same? do not compare alvarez to a cheater. your tribalism controls your brain.

[Boxing-1013]

he was cheated against ward. we just saw the difference between a clean fighter and a cheater. ward tried to finish kovalev and after a full minute of hitting him he didn't budge so he went low and doubled him over in pain with low blows. alvarez hit kovalev clean with clean punches until he was nearly unconscious. calling it equal is just not true and takes away from alvarez's achievement. do not compare him to a cheater.

well said man

[Diego Rodriguez]

With all due respect, Kovalev is done. Great victory for Alvarez. I think Alvarez beats Bivol, and probably an easier job than Kov.

I think that is an excellent fight. I’ll go with Alvarez because of his jab and chin. I thought he actually should have thrown the jab even more.

Stop crying. Kov should’ve got the decision in the 1st fight. Then he lost the rematch and lost here. It happens.

[MulaKO]

Yeah, too bad had he not gotten the KO, he would have his schit pushed in with a 10-2 UD loss. Nice revisionist history, without his KO, he gets ****d on the cards. HBO was all on Alvarez' nuts in rds 1-3, then they forgot he was fighting because that's what they do to play tools like you like a fiddle.

Your absolutely right
Even if he would go the distance , Alvarez would of been ****d by the scores
Never would of gotten the decision imo

[MrClutch85]

Dude he's really not though...Alvarez just isn't American...there is no money in hyping some black Colombian dude who can't speak English.

Skills wise he is better than Ward. He was a much tougher test for Kov tonight that Ward was in either fight. Ward has always gotten by on the black American privilege and he has never really clearly beaten any good fighter in his life, just truth bro.

Yeah Alvarez is more skilled than Ward lol what drugs you smoking

[Mr_Forte]

Yeah. I would like to have seen Kovalev at least take hold and/or take as strategic knee. Sure he loses his lead but he gets to regain himself and at least fight soundly in the following rounds.

Yea it’s like they never preparrrd for that possibility. Also, guys like Kovalev always jump back up at the count of 3. It’s like their pride gets in the way. Stay down until 8, get your balance and stand straight up. Getting up at 3 on shaky legs doesn’t help at all
