Arguably the biggest and best boxing matchup of 2016 is just a few days away, as undefeated light heavyweight (175 lbs) champion Sergey Kovalev (30-0-1, 26 KOs) defends his WBO/WBA/IBF titles against Andre Ward (30-0, 15 KOs), a former force at super middleweight (168 lbs) who was once in serious consideration as the world’s #1 P4P boxer. It should be a fascinating contest between the heavy-handed Kovalev and the slick, technically superb Ward.
To get you hyped for this weekend’s super showdown, HBO has released its free fight videos for both men. This post will be for Ward’s September 2012 thrashing of Chad Dawson.
