Kovalev: John David Jackson Was A Passenger On My Bus! [Video]

[FlatLine]

Seems this interview from a few weeks ago wasn't widely seen. In line with past comments, Kovalev gives Jackson zero credit for his training and claims he was actually training himself throughout their entire affiliation. He calls Jackson a "passenger on my bus" in what some have interpreted as a racially charged reference to the famous Rosa Parks incident of the 50s!



It's a contentious point as to whether he inadvertently refers to himself as a bus driver during the specific analogy in question?

[Commie]

Well Krusher doesn’t like to give credit neither to Jackson nor to Sanchez
He should get back on PEDs train himself and go back to crushing and insulting his opponents

As long as Jackson sat on the right side of the bus...that is fine by me.

The guy is a total douchebag.

That bus ended up in a ditch on Saturday.

he got bust up for sure lol , very rarely do i see an elite fighter with such genuine horribleness , always sensed a very sinister vibe off kovalev , peds or not the guy was a killer albeit against b class victims , bhop was a senior citizen , take him out kovs best win is probably cleverly ! lol

[deansluk]

also think the first ward fight legitamised kov as genuine top level guy albeit in a loss

[Boxfan83]

Well at least he didn't say Jackson was riding on the back of the bus because that'd be racist

remember when JDJ went and held talks with Ward in the build up to the rematch with Kovalev?!

[HURTFEELINGS]

remember when JDJ went and held talks with Ward in the build up to the rematch with Kovalev?!

If your current job is about to be OVER, I'd advise you to start looking for the next job also. We now know the truth about Kitty Kov JDJ said he dropped Kov in sparring with a body shot....

Jon judas Jackson is the most unprofessional coach in the sport.
