He shook off everything Ward had to give and still managed to look good after the fight full of energy. Ward sounds and looks like he's been through

WWII. This particular matchup takes years off Ward's career not Kovalev.

Kovalev was supposed to knock him out, and didn't manage to do it. Ward lost this fight, but he got better as the fight went on. I think Kovalev wouldn't have KO'd him, even if it went 30 rounds.
