The Kovalev/Ward promotion is off to a great start

[Motorcity Cobra]

That has NOT been the case for many of Ward's previous fights.

Kessler-Ward had a California ref Jack Reiss and California judges, despite it being written into the Super Six contract that the refs be from neutral countries.

And that made a difference in the fight like how?

And that made a difference in the fight like how?

Ward was allowed to use illegal tactics such as head butts and clamping his opponents' arms.

Personally I think the fight will be postponed until early next year. They're cutting this awfully close.

Roc Nation has an issue w/#WardKovalev venue, tentatively scheduled for T-Mobile Arena, per sources. Ward was a no-show at today's presser.

Duval stated in a not so subtle way that she thinks RNS is trying to bully Main Events into staging the fight at Oracle (Oakland)

I think Roc Nation is saying anywhere but T-Mobile. If Canelo couldn't sell out T-Mobile what makes Main Events think Kovalev and Ward will?

She was asked right here if Ward was demanding this fight take place in Oakland.

Hopefully Roc Nation will be out of business early next year.

wtf is this. lol It's been a month since the Chilemba fight. It's been 3 days since the Brand fight... Is Duva serious? who the fook does this?

[Holystroke3]

People are really mad a guy didn't show up to a last second press conference two days after he just fought?
