        I've rarely seen so many people talk so much shyt and end up looking like complete a**holes. What a joy that was.

        Edit; rewatching it for the the first time, it's crazy how confident Ward was. Looking at his body language, you'd never guess that Kovalev is the killer that he is. Ward was reading him and going tit for tat, constantly. Such a gutsy performance.
        Knowing the ref is on his side and all he needs to do is punch his opponent in the balls to get a KO win does wonders for a fighter's confidence!

          You said it! Ward was one of a kind. They broke the mould and tore up the rule book when they made Dre!

            Ward adjusted form the first fight. He knew Kovalev would defend from the upstairs, so his headbutts are not going to work,m so he adjusted, feinted the headbutt and then go down on the balls. Great adjustment.

              You don't think that maybe ... nah, forget it. You don't think, period.

                Give him credit though. At least he TRIES to think for roughly 5 minutes a day. Then severe headache sets in. Just like if you took a (legal) flying headbutt to your face.

                  Is that a Lestor Tutor alt? He goes on about the same crap daily as Lestor did.

                      in order to validate that, post up a vid of the fight where all he did was hit someone in the balls to get a ko.

                      cheers, would make a nice xmas present.

                      so yeh to clarify - dont actually write a reply, just validate what you said with a link of the full fight where that is all that happens.
