Comments Thread For: Andre Ward Gets Off The Floor, Decisions Sergey Kovalev

[Johnny2x2x]

Agreed with the decision. Ward did just enough to win more rounds. In fact after I watch it again I won't be surprised if I see 115-112 for Ward.

Kovalev had the KD and won a couple rounds big, but he just didn't do enough in most of the other rounds.

Robbery of the year, in what should have been fight of the year.

Sad

Here come the "robbery" claims. It was a close fight and rds were close. Honestly it was two great champions who put on a great fight.

My opinion Ward won the fight. Hope to see a rematch. I think Ward wins a little easier in a rematch.

I cant blaming anyone for thinking the fix was in I guess you didn't see the other 2 fights in this PPV that were bullcrap robberies as soon as I saw this everyone knew Sergey Kovalev wouldn't win in a close fight

Yep close fight. But honestly Ward clinch too much, he landed probably more than half of his shot while getting off the clinch. But he did what he was supposed to do, it's no secret Kovalev gets tired, we've seen it in his previous fight. Ward only clinched from round 1 to 6 in order to get Kovalev exhausted, then he won the rounds out of running/hugging, landing 1 shot and dodging. None of theses two fighters deserve to be the number 1 p4p, that's for sure after tonight performance.

michael buffer would say other wise

Russians always get robbed in Vegas. It's a shame there was a robbery because it completely spoiled an otherwise fantastic fight.

Kovalev clearly won the fight. He outboxed Ward, landed harder and more punches, and dictated/controlled the fight for almost the entire fight.

Vegas is the worst place in boxing

This is why I'm less interested in the sport.

This whole card was corruption and another black eye for the sport. Lampley nailed it, American fighter benefits from American judges.

............. Agreed.

Disgusting.
