Alvarez the only one that actually beat him.
Ward got a gift and a ref stoppage after a 5 punch combo to the balls. Ref should have docked him a point and gave Kov 5 minutes to recover, that is the rules for a ball punch.
Canelo did what he was supposed to but Kov was clearly pulling his punches, he was paid off by DAZN.

ward lost their first fight and should have been dq'd in the second fight for the ridiculously low blows at the end... so canelo
"he was still prime" etc doesn't matter when a guy is hunching over to show the ref you're punching his scrotum.

Explain to me how Kovalev requiring to weigh in at the 175 pound limit at the weigh in is "draining him into husk"?

Man these really aren't comparable at all.
I know on boxingscene everything comes down to "which side you're on" and for example on this topic, you're pitting the "ward/floyd army" against the "canelo army", and everyone just comes in, clicks for their team the poll looks competitive.
But the ward fights were a public embarrassment. They were not legitimate events.
There were blatant fixed judging on the undercards justifying legal investgation (perez vs hooker). If you don't think fixing exists go watch that. Later in the night they went against 80% of media scores for ward's first "win".
In the second fight he saw Kovalev wobbled, blatantly teed off to the bottom his athletic cup worse than Golota vs Bowe, then when Kov bent over at the waist the ref jumped on him and called it a KO.
Great roleplaying from the announcer team watching a slow motion uppercut to the balls knocking his cup around then saying "wow looks like a beautiful liver shot. Kovalev seems to have shat his liver into the bottom of his trunks. Great strategy by Ward.".
As far as I can tell Canalo punched a faded Kovalev in the face. People are wondering if it was a fix just because it looked weird and boxing is dirty.
OK. fine.
But it wasn't a narrated documentary on how the boxing underworld functions like the ward-kovalev events were.Last edited by ////; 11-04-2019, 07:49 AM.

Canelo KO'd him.
Ward lost the first one and needed 10 hits to the balls to "win" the second one.
