Sad that "Lionheart" lost...

But it's easier to accept a legit loss like Shabranskyy-Barrera than a robbery like Kovalev-Ward.

Tough loss yes, but the result of poor tactics -not for lack of all the right tools. Shab didn't employ enough stiff straights to keep Barrera away and he didn't have the correct counter-footwork to stay out of a slug fest. His body is too big for light heavy and while drained down cannot take the pounding without the muscle armor.
