Of course Kovalev should have gone low blow for low blow with Ward, and it's his mistake not to have, but for a fighter whose instinct is to fight fair and allow the ref to officiate, it's difficult to begin disregarding the rules he's been taught to observe, in the middle of a fight.
If the ref is allowing Ward fight his typical fight, I doubt if there is any fighter who could beat him. How could they? Ward turns a boxing match into a wrestling match. Ward's style was so successful, I'm surprised we don't see young fighters imitating him.
