You may lose a point if you low blow him back, but chances are he's gonna stop hitting low. The fighter should NEVER complain to the ref about low blows. Leave it to the ref to discover or for his cornerman to mention in between rounds. The fighter needs to be focused on 1 thing and 1 thing only, his opponent.

Fighting Fire with Fire works by the way.

A perfect example I can give you. Kostya Tszyu vs Ricky Hatton...throughout the fight Tszyu landed several "borderline" low blows that I'm sure didn't tickle. He got told to keep 'em up a few times, but never got any point deductions or anything, well finally after quite a few of those borderline shots had landed Hatton came forward, and hit him square in the balls as hard as he possibly could. Tszyu dropped to the canvas in pain, and took a few minutes to recover and continue with the fight....there were no more borderline low blows from him that night.

In Ward/Kovalev their case it should be disqualification for Ward and also a multibillion dollar fine.
Kovalev could have made a 100 children who could all have been boxing champions and make piles of millions each year. By blowing his balls out on purpose, this would be impossible, so by paying Kovalev like 5 or 6 billion as compensation for what he destroyed, Ward should be very lucky.
Also, Ward should be in prison for all those murders.

The belt obviously was below the navel, I hope you know what a navel is, and where it is located, otherwise, ask your mum please.

The ref can't punish what he can't see. Ward knows how to conceal his old school tactics.

the clip of the final blow is all over the
board and you can clearly see that seconds
after the final low blow the referee enters
the frame from the left. which clearly means
he almost had the exact view point as the
camera. he was not far away, nor on the
wrong side of the exchange. this thing did
happen right in front of his eyes.

At no point during the bout was Sergey Kovalev’s navel visible.

Tony Weeks has already admitted to not seeing the precise point of contact where Andre’s low blows connected. And the video replays appear to confirms this, since Kovalev was bent really low, meaning that the Russian’s body would have obstructed the refs viewpoint.

None of the Sky Sports analysts, during their live commentary could say for certain whether the low blows were illegal after watching the slow-motion replays from different angles... so the ref cannot be blamed for his mistake.

the angle of the cam must have been
almost exactly the same as his view
point and he was two meters max away.

that none of the analysts couldn't tell
was simply due to the facht that this
precise footage was not shown, at least
that is the only explanation that i have.
but unlike them, who lacked that view
point, the ref had it, because he was
exactly standing there.

i do not see why you can be so sure that
the ref could not have been blamed. had
he been standing on the other side of the
two fighters. or behind one of them at that
moment, i would agree with you. but he
wasn't. he was standing right at the point
where it was at least borderline negligent
not to see what the camera showed so
clearly.

The refs are younger and in just as good of shape as the fighters in the ring. There's a reason why there's never any controversy after big UFC fights for fouls or low blows, bad stoppages...etc. Boxing puts 65 and 70 year old men in there and get mad when they miss some action.

A punch didn't end this fight. Weeks ended the fight based on his opinion that Krushedner was not willing to continue, given the Russian's repeated theatrics over the last couple of rounds whenever touched on the beltline.

Krushedner is responsible for Week's decision. The Russian should be thanking the ref for obliging his wishes. I feel cheated by Week's decision and Krushedner's effeminate theatrics leading up to it.

Weeks stopped it because Ward hit Kovalev with 3 unanswered shots. The fact they were illegal makes all the difference. Weeks pisspoor refereeing perhaps did rob Ward of a great stoppage - therefore all boxing fans should be enraged at his woeful stopping of this fight as a contest.

I am enraged. Weeks screwed me out of a perfect pick.

All three of the final body shots were not low. One was. Krushedner had been playing the FIFA style "I've been murdered" act all night. Weeks got fooled or he just had enough of Krushedner's pitifuly effeminate dramatics.

How many times did Krushedner literally turn his back on SOGgy? How many times did he act like he had been shot from a punch on the beltline? How many times did he hit SOGgy low and he just kept fighting? How many times did Krushedner rabbit punch? How many times did he hold and head lock?

I can't believe that you squealers aren't directing your vitriol at Krushedner. He fought like a sissy.

The 2nd of the final 3 shots was the lowest and most vicious. If there was ever a shot that required the 5-minute foul recovery, it was that. Instead Weeks let Ward ram home another brutal low blow then waved it off.

The finish was 100% illegitimate.
