This is the fight of the year! Never mind the confusion in Canelo not fighting Golovkin and fighting a lightweight for the middleweight belt.. I’ve just made myself go dizzy.. This is going to be bigger than that.
Sergey Kovalev is a fighter that is on the verge of having his name in the pound for pound rankings. Many believe his name is already on the list. He is a strong fighter that has a very similar ‘heat-seeking’ style to Gennady Golovkin.
With an undefeated record of 29-0 with 26 KO’s Kovalev means business.
Andre Ward on the other hand is a guy that is well and truly on the pound for pound list, maybe sat right at the top since the departure of Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Andre Ward also has an unbeaten record of 29-0. Ward is a complete contrast of Kovalev. Finesse and footwork makes this guy a joy to watch for true pugilists.
Andre Ward Vs Sergey Kovalev.
ESPN’s Dan Rafael tweeted that Kovalev’s promoter Kathy Duva said to him the contract has been signed:
Kathy Duva says again the Kovalev-Ward contracts are signed for fall. She says it’s best fight that can be made in #boxing.

Should Kovalev get passed Isaac Chilemba in July, his next fight at 175lbs will be against Andre Ward if reports are true.
A truly mouthwatering match up of power meets speed.
