the fight was close. i scored it 114-113 ward, a draw, and 115-113 ward...when i gave kovalev ALL the close rounds he won by 116-111...this was no robbery...i gave the most biased card i could for kovalev, some of the rounds he didnt even do enough to win in.
sour grapes at its finest.....ward won the fight, get over it...they'll have a rematch
Im pretty sure that post relates to you accusing of someone else pulling a race card..something you are well known for BTW. :repost:
Deal with what ,you worm? The smarter boxing fans and inside guys think Ward lost,including the referee who was black I know that's important to you,and a something you cant point out to use,heaven knows what you would say if a white Ref said that)...:trink26:
Stop living vicariously through fighters...inferiority complex lol
99% of people crying robbery on social media didn't score the fight, have never scored a fight, and if you asked them to score a fight on a 10-point must system, they wouldn't know what that is.
They view the fight as one big 36 minute round instead of 12 individual rounds that you then add up at the end to get a score.
ROUND 3.
ROUND 4.
ROUND 5.
ROUND 6.
ROUND 7.
ROUND 8.
Make sure to scroll down to the bottom.
My HL-GIFs from rounds 3-8 will finish in the official thread : I left in a lot of grazing punches that will not count as clean so that these Kovalev Stands will not think Im doctoring the footage...but if you know boxing you can pick up on them in Slow-motion baby! UHHHH! I like it like dat!
liek the idiots claiming ward made no adjustments..."kov got tired doe!!!" kmsl
It was a combination of both really. Kovalev spent too much energy trying to muscle ward in the clinch. You could see as the fight wore on, ward was getting more work done in there and kovalev had a tougher time getting it to a stalemate so the ref would step in. No fault in ward for capitalizing on what he was given either...that's what he was supposed to do.
Ward lost the fight. You have to take the fight to the champ. Photo finishers aren't acceptable.
Many challengers throughout history didn't get the nod as they didn't di quite enough. Why ius ward being shown favouritism?
it was a toss up..both were in doubt bro...stop reaching for straws that arent there...the fight was a nailbiter
It was a toss up if you don't count a KD. With the KD no way Ward won it.
Its clear he didn't watch the fight or score it lol
10-10 rounds can make a fight a draw with a kd
Hard to educate the butthurt lol
As I keep saying, people decided that Kovalev was going to win after the KD and they never opened their minds to the idea that Ward could come back. Ward's body language was not that of a winner either.
I thought Ward was gone but I kept fairly counting the rounds and at the end was in shock, he really did turn the fight around when you look at the actual content.
As far as the trolls here, they made up their mind before the fight. Did you see all the "robbery" threads over the last MONTH? Emotion overrides logic once again. Though I have no problem with those who see a close victory for Kovalev. There were enough swing rounds for that.
Compubox tends to be helpful but I found it to have failed wildly in this one. There's a good arena-cam vid on youtube right now where you can see different angles than the broadcast and it's incredible just how often Kovalev misses. It also makes Ward's body work and quick strikes during transitions more visible.
As I keep saying, I'm ok with people seeing a close Kovalev victory. But "robbery" is an uneducated statement, IMO>

oh boy...
"No sport is more pure and masculine than boxing so of course, the powers that be, knows its easier to hype white fighters because white fans will get behind them regardless if they are elite level. They want someone to get behind too. Just look at BUTTERBEAN" :doh:
BTW your own criteria shows that Kovalev won .:rolleyes:
Lol
You pulled a post from a totally unrelated thread
That thread was about are white fighters easier to promote
So America isn't and wasn't ran by white supremacist? Was there not a great white hope in every era? Gerry cooney, guys in the 1900s
Keep reaching bro
Kov lost fair n square
Many of you guys suffer from inferiority complex and hate seeing Latinos, Asians and blacks dominate a sport you guys didn't want us in in the first place lol
Deal with it
How did you score it a draw on a 10-point must system with a KD?
You daft cunt.
:lol1:
... I'm ok with people seeing a close Kovalev victory. But "robbery" is an uneducated statement, IMO>
:haha:
did you watch the actual fight or just look at punch stats?
Come on bro, watch the fight, you probably didnt....kmsl
compubox is flawed as all hell, half the time they dont agree on what lands or misses lol

yes and when u look at combox round by round, it shows kovalev won the fight... That's all, thanks!
I just can't wait for the rematch! Lol just like ward had to fight kovalev this time if he wanted to stay on hbo, he's contractually obligated for the rematch, so he can't go back to fighting paul smiths, and sullivan barreras hahah.

You are the one that doesn't know what a robbery is. There needs to be 6 undisputable rounds for Koavalev. Making it impossible for Ward to win to call it a robbery. There wasn't.
The definition of robbery is very subjective. if there were say 6 debatable rounds, or even four, and Ward got the benefit of the doubt in every single round, what would you call that? What do you think three Russian judges would have scored this fight in Moscow. Not rhetorical. WHAT DO YOU THINK THREE RUSSIAN JUDGES WOULD HAVE SCORED THIS FIGHT IN MOSCOW?
What are you talking about? He said i DON'T respect the opinions of judges while he's the one complaining about a robbery. :lol1:
Not talking about those three judges. This is very obvious if you know what a robbery is. Christ
Most fighters had it a very close fight with a lot saying they gave it to Ward. Just like Mayweather-Pacquiao fight, this fight shows there's of people that don't know what they're watching or how to score a fight.
i agree somewhat what i have a problem with tho is how people cannot possibly see that this fight could of went to ward legit its like their blinders wont allow that part of it to exist
