Smh They can't stand to see that brothas are still a dominant force and set a standard since the early 1900's. Every since that color line was broken, black boxers have broken in and it hasn't stopped. Now we've been seeing an influx of Eastern Europe fighters, so they tribalistically cling more towards them hoping they'll bring the good old days back lol. Plus, they hate how Ward dismantled one of their top Eastern Blocc boys 😂. Stay tuned though, Usyk is their next one to hype up. They're already saying he's a greater Cruiserweight than Holyfield, and will be the next Holy smh. I see that Lomachenko is the greatest talk stopped after Linares showed that he is an excellent boxer but he's not what they make him out to be.

He's done a lot of shit I dislike lately. He's never been mayweather Roy jones Bernard Hopkins any of them. And you know he didn't win that fight and it wasn't close. The judges gave Ward round 10 when kovalev killed him in that round wake up man. Because the judges had Floyd and canelo a draw doesn't mean it was.
@Odinthegiantdog8 жыл бұрын
Devon Cooper he won 5 out of 6 in the first 6 plus a 10 8 knock down round which gives him 6 rounds already. Even you think kovalev only won 1 or 2 round from 6 to 12 that would give kovalev the fight. Kovalev was the champion and Ward simply didn't do enough to take the belt from the champion. At minimum there is no way you had the fight any lower then a draw it's impossible . Do you even understand that a knockdown round is a 10 8?

The jab to the body is easy to land if you set it up by jabbing a bunch of times to the face/guard, and then when you want to land the body jab, you feint to the head, then strike the body. Keep your head off the center line when you jab and you'll almost never get caught. Plus after they fear the body shot you can hit the head all day

It's funny how people get on people for cherry picking but when a man comes up in weight and faces probably the most dangerous man in boxing right and wins in a close decision that could have gone either way he gets nothing but hate. I mean did Ward judge the fight and declare himself the winner? If you disagree with the verdict blame the judges and give credit to a fighter who dared to be great. What's the point in taking risky fights if your going to receive hate regardless. Same thing with Broner. People talk about cherry picking, but Broner fought a dangerous fighter in Maidana in his second fight at WW after skipping Jr WW and lost. Give him some credit for daring to be great.

No. Thats why is very strange to hear so many Boxers claim they love God and this and that, yet they can't even be honest about something as simple as loosing a fight. Why not take the rematch right away? Or be the first boxer to say, I won but I didn't deserve the win. That would make people respect him more, but hey, thats life.
