Kovalev's team has lost all faith in him

[MDPopescu]

... last time (because of the rematch clause) Kovaliov behave like a gentleman in the ring... This time around, I don't expect anything like this...

It's sad that not only Ward's team, but even his fans applaud the ****ty little tactics Ward is employing.

Fighters should fight, not play these little pu55y ass 'mental games'. Brainless fanboys are killing the sport.

nail. on . head.

I think Ward's been watching "Hands of Stone" too many times with this mental game crap. Haha.

Any walk of life where there is an individual generating huge revenues there will be the absolute worst kind of people who will gravitate to that person or situation to have a piece

Lawyers, estate agents, football agents, boxing promoters, anyone who's in any "entourage" for any celebrity

All scum

Kathy "HoseQueen" Duva strikes again.

You are wrong on both points. They called john david jackson and offered him alot of money and he turned them down because it was ridiculous. And about the purse its all ffrom wards team, they where a pain in the ass in negotations and werent making the fight unless kovalev gets less money.

They didnt want this fight again and only did it because of the rematch clause thats why your boy threatened to retire. He was backed into a corner and is cashing out now.

From the horse's mouth...

Hes being sarcastic, hes saying that he would have went if they gave him fort knox. Yea totally realistic proposition. Hes basically told them to **** off respectfully.

I think the abysmal purse is wards teams doing. These guys have been pulling all the stops and I wouldnt be surprised they purposely ****d kovalev of his livelihood, where most guys would show some respect to their fellow sportsman, these guys have taken kovalev nearly beating ward as a very personal affair. Kovalev likely had no choice but to agree, either another shot at getting his belts back or off to who knows where.
