Interesting interview with Stitch Duran (Ward's cutman/hand wrapper). He was the designated observer sent to Kovalev's dressing room. Some interesting tidbits:

• Kovalev's team had trouble wrapping his hands,...took them 45 mins and they had to get the secondary gloves from ringside. He finally got them on 5 mins before walkout
• After Kovalev heard instructions from Tony Weeks, he complained to Weeks that in the first fight Ward would run his shoulder into Kovalev's abdomen as he slipped and it really hurt (the idiot said this with Stitch standing right there)
• Of course, first thing Stitch does is go back to Ward and give him all the intel. Ward then proceeds to pound the abdomen from round 1.

Sergey's camp is a total disaster, he needs a fresh start. Also, he's obviously not the deepest thinker. Just more evidence that Ward was always just too smart for Kovalev. Ward would never whine about that shit with a Kovalev spy right there!!

Yeah in hindsight the JDJ rumors should've been more of an alarm to the situation with him and his camp than most of us even thought.

Congrats Kovalev, you played yourself.

Spys, Intel, designated observer, complaints, video evidence that's unclear, claims of robbery or cheating...

Cold War type shit.

America-Russia takes it to the next level.

Messed up if true, but Ward was the better.boxer either way
