If you want to be objective and honest, you can look at the footage of both fights and see that Ward hits Kovalev in almost exactly the same part of the lower belly as Dubois hits Usyk.
If you don't want to be honest and objective, you can see whatever you want to see. But the truth is, Kovalev and Usyk were both hit low.
this is not true at all and you have an obvious bias for Usyk.
on the belt is legal which is where Usyk was hit.
Kovalev was hit below the belt, 5 times.
The commonality here was corrupt reffing and the fighter who they believed to bring in more money in the future was allowed to win with ref assistance.

With fair judges, Kovelev won the first fight.
What happened in the rematch was maybe the most blatant example of corrupt officiating I have ever seen in a world title fight. Ward hit Kovalev low, Kovalev sat down on the ropes and looked at the ref, clearly expecting him to give Ward a warning. Instead, the ref waves the fight off and declares Ward the winner by KO. He didn't even start a count and give Kovalev the opportunity of fighting on. Disgraceful.
I was ringside for Ward-Kovalev 2, and Ward did hit him low/boarderline low but the writing was on the wall really, Kovalev was getting beat up and on his way to getting stopped.Comment

Kovalev-Ward 1 was a very CLOSE fight but Kovalev threw and landed more punches (according to CompuBox) and most media outlets scored the fight for him. Therefore, he was PROBABLY robbed. Anyhow, I see similar parallels between this fight and Bivol-Beterbiev as it was a case of a KO artist facing a master boxer. In these sorts of instances, the dominant power puncher USUALLY pulls through in a close fight and I expect the same thing to happen tomorrow. Golovkin-Canelo 1 would be another classic example of this where Golovkin clearly won a close fight but was handed a draw instead.Comment

I had Kov winning the 1st fight 114-113.
2nd fight had an unfortunate end, but we're not going to sit here and act like Ward wasn't bullying Sergey.Comment

Ward did hit him low in the second fight, but Kovalev was done and looking for a way out. It was only a matter of time.Comment
