The first fight between Kovalev and ward was held in November last year – despite the early knockdown, unanimous decision with the meager advantage was won by the Americans and the Russians this defeat was the debut in the Pro ring.
Kovalev took advantage of the right to an immediate rematch – a rematch will be held today at 05:00 Kyiv time in the same Las Vegas. Favorite revenge with a small margin is considered a ward, but many experts admit that Kovalev will correct the mistakes of the first fight and can ruin the track record of your opponent.
For the rematch ward will earn a guaranteed $ 6.5 million. Earnings Kovalev depends on the percentage of sales of PPV on the TV channel “HBO”. That is why the Russians behaved provocatively in the process of promotion of the fight, and defiantly left the last official press conference.
Words:
Andre ward (USA): “When I watched the fight, I saw a situation in which he let him off the hook. And I realize now that if a similar situation
will be in the second game, I can’t afford to let Kovalev”.
Sergey Kovalev (Russia): “In the first half of the match with Andre I dominated, but fizzled out in the second part. Don’t want to talk about what was ahead of our fight revenge, in which I will not leave ward no chance”.
