    I totally forgot about the Kovalev v Ward 2 it's been so badly promoted. I really hope we see a far more aggressive Kovalev this time round, it's going to be hard to stay up until 4 though as the undercard is poor.

    Atmosphere is pish. Fight isn't the best either, so far.

    Hopefully Smith can pull it off.

    You'd get better atmosphere at a local town hall. Genuinely. I've been to run of the mill local Muay Thai cards that embarras this pish.

    Brutal.

    It's in Wetzlar wherever the * that is over there..

    Smith looks very much done. Heavy punishment catching up with him..

    This boy's pish as well but youthful..

    The fight later should hopfully make up for it. Im expecting both to up their games from the last fight. Ward was starting to figure out Kovalev late on, so im expecting a smarter fight from him. Kovalev was not aggresive enough before and im expecting him to go after ward early and apply pressure for as long as it goes. Should make for an excellent fight!

    I didn't think he looked good at the weigh in. Looked like he'd slimmed right down for it and on the face but looked good tonight so maybe a struggle with the weight..

    Either way that's him completely done now though. Terrible way to bow out on your career..

    That guy had a good jab and little else, time to retire. He'd have beat him easily a few years ago.

    I quite liked his defence. Bit unorthodox but he slips punches well.

    Weird stoppage.

    Was almost the end of the round and the camera angle looked like he was punching him in the balls lol

    That was one bullshit stoppage.
