Kovalev was looking for a way out of the fight. Ward was chasing him around the ring punishing him to body and head, Kovalev had nothing left. If Weeks let the fight continue Kovalev would have took a viscous beating and probably wouldn't have made it out of the next round anyways. Good stoppage by week's after seeing Kovalev was a defeated fighter, no reason to allow Kovalev to take anymore unnecessary punishment, he was clearly unravelled.

You would have said the same thing if the ref had seen enough from Joshua at any point in rounds 5,6 or 7 in the Klitchko fight. Particularly the last 30 seconds of round 5.

Reading garbage opinions like this you would think some people have been watching boxing for a matter of weeks. I couldn't tell you how many times i sat watching a guy gassed and think he was finished, only for him to rally late in a fight.

Thanks for posting your dreadful opinion in a new thread, it needed the kind of air time it may not have gotten simply as a reply.
