Yup, Kell Brock did the same thing against Spence before he quit. Body language never lies in a boxing match. I didn't like Kovalev going into the rematch when I watched him and his camp make excuses about the 1st fight, saying they overtrained and stuff.
What happened in the Rigondeaux fight? I was watching the LSU game.

What happened in the Rigondeaux fight
They were exchanging punches at the end of the round. The bell rang they threw a punch or two a piece and Rigondeaux's landed and knocked him out. Ref called it good, Executive Director backed him so for now its a Rigondeaux TKO.

Apparently commish heard wrong from the truck. They were telling him the punch landed after the bell but he heard before and made the ruling based on that. It should be revised to a No Contest since both guys were punching and it was an accidental foul. Commish indicated in the interview that if they review and see that the foul came after the bell, it should be revised to a DQ. We'll see...
As for Ward. He executed beautifully like the scientist he is. That was supreme level competition. I had the Sky Sports feed so I didn't have to listen to Lederman's bad scoring and Roy Jones' unintelligible commentary. Sky had the fight even or maybe Ward slightly up. I didn't like the stoppage because it gives Kovalev an excuse to bitch and whine. He kept trying to sell low blows to get breathers. Ref should've let Ward finish him.
