I think Ward vs Kovalev 3rd fight is needed!

Post by apollo creed »

I'm interested in a trilogy and I think it would do good numbers since the second fight ended in a controversy altough Kovalev's tank was near to empty.

Some time back even Andre Ward said he had bad habits.
He wasn't specific least not what I read, he didn't try to embarrass Sergey Kovalev face to face it was more a news piece that was a fight hyper.

At this point a 3rd fight isn't necessary.

Well they already got $140 off me at $70 a pop, I am in for $70 more if they do it again, and people love to argue about the fights so there is some type of interest there and now allegedly promoter from England is saying a Trilogy is needed so you never know, Maybe fight happens in UK.

I would prefer to see them fight anyone else. Let's get Kovalev vs Beterbiev.

Not a great example - boxing is scored round-by-round and in terms of punches landed, it's 6 rounds apiece. Of course, Kovalev scored a KD, so in that case he should win the fight by a single point, which I think is actually the most accurate result for that fight.

Ward should ham up the controversies, that way he might have something to sell a 3rd fight with. I can't think of who else he could fight that anyone would actually buy.

Yup. Ward should just admit that he low blow Kovalev and the stoppage was wrong.

There's absolutely no way Andre Ward fights Kovalev a third time. NO CHANCE. Ward will probably take a year off now before he gets back into the ring and he'll most likely vacate the titles. But a couple of things that he won't do is fight Kovalev a third time or come anywhere close to a fight with Bivol. I know Bivol is a mandatory but Ward won't have to honor any mandatory now.

No point for another one in Vegas. At minimum, it should be East Coast with neutral judges and ref, but Ward will never agree to that.

The "Ward will never" sh!t is hilarious. If you are going to use it, do it right; SOGgy will never travel to Mars. At least that is likely true.

that dirty,cheating and corrupt hypocrit of a blasfemist will not ever risk not having both judges and refs in his corner.

Keep puking it out, Buttheadbean. Squeal and shriek and whimper and moan. You really do have a fathomless love for SOGgy, don't you?

You are the one puking out completely unfounded accusations, Buttheadbean. I have my doubts whether you even watched the fight. You just have an overwhelming love to look like you hate SOGgy.

It is obvious that you are hopelessly obsessed with him. :OhYes:

As I suspected, your biased opinion is based on biased footage of a fight you did not bother to watch.

Fair enough, Buttheadbean, we all know where your fair and balanced opinion is coming from. :OhYes:

We know that Ward has never fought abroad and never had foreign judges/ref. When Kovalev requested neutral judges, Ward refused. If you believe that he would fight Kovalev, Beterbiev, Gvozdyk with neutral officials, then your head is in Ward's ass, which we already knew.
