I have not even rendered the eleventh round or the 12 of my film study because of the Holiday...the World can all agree on a lie it wont make it true ; anyone that has any integrity and understands basic principles in scoring can not call this a robbery. I gave the eleventh to Ward but felt I had cover enough rounds to prove my point -- it was a close fight if you cant even acknowledge that then Im not interested in carrying on this conversation.

It's not about integrity, but all subjective, especially from Ward's fans since they have to bring up "ring generalship" because of the very few clear and effective punches landed by Ward.

Everybody agrees the fight was close, disputed, but most people have a clear winner and this guy is Kovalev who isn't even liked by casuals or boxing fans.
I disagree with Ward leaving the arena with the belts.

Dre got outlanded, therefore outboxed and clearly physically beaten.


Kova landed more and harder.

And Dre knows it but will strong mentally enough to ignore it.

You are the type of person I was referring to in my initial post : ' Bringing up Ring-Generalship' -- are you kidding me? you clearly proved in your own words you have no grasp on judging criteria, '' We '' didn't brought this up that has been the rule for ages!!! '' WE '' just didn't start to adhere to the rules a few days ago because of Wards victory....furthermore I been reading another thing that caught my attention you guys dismiss the body shots inside the clinches but I'm sorry to tell you guys those punches count according to the rules...again we didnt make these things up.

billy, without dissecting the dynamics of the fight.....

you guys talked shht about Ward for months..... and now, here you are crying because he was awarded the decision

you guys have been pretty classless over this whole thing

[aboutfkntime]

the Ward fans have been classy, and admit that it could have gone either way..... but the Kovalev fans..... ooops, I mean..... the Golovkin fans, have not been classy

the Kovalev fans say the same as the Ward fans

funny thing, everyone called it and said the excuses would flow

some of you guys are b1tches

[joseph5620]

Funny how before the fight "Ward is not a draw" "Nobody watches Ward fight" "Nobody went to Ward's press conference."

After the fight "Kovalev was robbed because Ward is an American hero"
