Kovalev v Ward

[fightfan95]

As ward has made the move up to Light heavy - this is a match-up that would be on everyone's mind. Currently I believe Ward is a very very slight favourite in the bookies eyes. I personally think this would be an extremely close contest, although I think as soon as Kovalev lands a clean shot that will be the end, but the reason I say this is going to be close (if it ever is made) Ward's defence in my opinion is one of the best in the game - not to long ago he was regarded as a close contender to FW for P4P. I think Ward is the safe bet (on points) but I think if this is made my money would be on a Kovalev KO, what's your guys opinions?

Ward hasn't moved anywhere yet. He hasn't fought any LHW. I strongly doubt that Ward will ever face Kovalev.
