Or the punchers choices "Reyes Gloves."
Grants are even thinner in the front with a heavier leather that tears the skin more. Maybe Sergei wanted bigger for better defense? Only he knows. But he was deadlier when he wore Grants.

Round ten was indeed the perfect example. The three of them must have gotten their muzzles together and decided on the that one. Even Little Bug Eyes said that Kovalev won round ten.
Hey if the American boxing gangsters want to hold their boxing matches in Las Vegas the Russians should hold their boxing matches in Grozny!

There is no way that Ward won round 10. Kovalev dominated that round.
No, Teddy Atlas scored it for Ward.Uncle Teddy Atlas said the judges were incompetent and or corrupt. I say both.
Hi everyone, english isn't my native language but I really would like to express my thought about this fight.
I'm very sad because I think Kovalev won but sadly the narrative one year from now will be that Ward overcome adversity and win the fight, which is not true but nobody will watch the full fight. You know that highlights can be very biased. Same case with Kessler fight, where nobody remember the dirty headbutts from Ward that almost cost Kessler's carrer.
No, Teddy Atlas scored it for Ward.
Others like Al Bernstein, Steve Kim, Doug Fischer, Roy Jones, Harold Lederman and Dan Rafael scored it for Kovalev though.

I didn't see the fight but I trust everyone here. I have been on plenty of boxing websites and the only ones who say Ward won are the American blacks. Blacks from other countries are saying Kovalev won as are the white Ward supporters. That tells me all I need to know.

Does anyone have a post fight photo of Ward's face?
Who is the real loser of this fight? Lets take stock for a moment. The Hock makes a good point.
Ward went 12 rounds with one of the hardest punchers in the sport. Perhaps half of the punches landed on him went to his head. I recall Tyson Fury, who took little from Wladimir in their fight, saying he had a headache for 3 or 4 days afterwards. Ward is in hiding right now. Ward has never taken this much damage in a fight. Fact is, he's so defensive oriented and so careful who he fights because of apprehension to take blow to the head. Can't fault him there. Who does? Fact is, Kovalev has ruined the careers of everyone he's faced. They all perform worse. So many examples, look at Pascal: he's shot; Chilemba: shot; Agnew: shot; Sillah: shot, Cleverly: shot, etc. The list is long. After 12 rounds of Kovalev banging on his head, how can Ward possibly be better? Most certainly he has suffered some damage. I think we've seen the best he can do.

Coming from that source its a compliment, though the article starts by writing "Andre Ward handed Sergey Kovalev the first loss..." which is false as three crooked judges wrote Kovalev a loss.
