2017 Andre Ward vs Bivol and Beterbiev who wins and why

[aboutfkntime]

Kovalev was absolutely destroyed by Beterbiev more than once in the amateurs and he considered him to be the bane of his existence there. Kovalev didn't want to fight him and I don't know many people who'd have picked him to beat Beterbiev at that stage.

what a load of e-shlt

[MulaKO]

Weird he'd have a half asses training camp but I guess Kov appeared more than shot to him having gone down so easily to his one solid attack in their first fight.

I think that was exactly it
Also you gotta remember he was the WBC mando to Stevenson but was always taking step aside money
So maybe fame got to him , if you wanna call it fame lol
But I also believe Kovi is done , that was his second wind and that’s it , no matter what Buddy says

nobody got worked up

imo... the proven Ward, beats the unproven Bivol/Beterbiev... that is all

there is nothing to indicate otherwise

Cool , just seemed like you were getting overheated

Oh yeah Kov showed in the Yarde fight that he was both still a class above being shot to bits but definitely done at the elite level.

If he sticks around it’ll be cause he’s got lawyer fees
He’ll be rendered to gatekeeper although a better than average one

He'll have another title fight I reckon, get blitzed, then call it a day. Of course he has that fight with Sullivan Barrera organised at a 180lbs catch-weight, a fight he could very well lose before he even gets that shot.

If he gets another title shot , it’ll be cause someone wants his name on their mantle like Canelo did
Nothing more , nothing less

Agreed he's nothing more than a name to add to the resumé.

The same Kovalev who got knocked out by Eleider and almost knocked out by Yarde?

Kovalev had never been seriously hurt until he fought ward


You don't have to be a rocket scientist to see since his left is used often he will throw Jabs from too close


Makes you vulnerable to slip 2s and and over hand rights


Everytime he got hurt its shots like that

Once he lost 2 In a row given his age he wasnt the same fighter fighting ward twice after punch resistance

Imo ward vs kov was the most competitive fight between 2 clear p4p guys. It took something out of both guys. That's why one retired and the others punch resistance stamina reflexes and legs deteriorated the last 2 years


Prime kov even the 2 versions that fought kov with all his confidence power willingness to knockout you out drills those guys


Kov was on an absolute tear for like 5 years at the world level. He earned being called the crusher

Bivol and beterbiev have only fought 3 or less top ten guys

[lolpz]

Those are better match ups for Ward then Kovalev.

Kovalev's long jab and boxing skills gave Ward more problems stylistically then Bivol or Beterbiev could.

Ward too tricky and skillful for both, just superior IQ and finds a way to win.

[EDDIE SPERM]

Andre Ward is too good
