He wins by smorthering his opponents, pushing, holding and so on. He fights very dirty, I dont think he will be able to outbully the bigger and stronger Kovalev. Also Ward gets hit allot, never by big hard punches. But if Kovalev touches you, your going to get hurt.

Also remember that Ward has been dropped in the past and he was very hurt.

The Boone fight was ages ago. Everyone gets rocked at some point. I don't know how the guy who won the super six tournament can be considered protected lol.

I guess we'll see tonight.
