    If that's the case then they should have called it for Kovalev as he landed the jab more often and more effectively.

      Very close fight. I hope the decision doesn't shroud how good of a fight it actually was. Boxing needed a big name fight to actually be a good fight after Manny vs Floyd.

        the rounds Ward won is him literally throwing a single jab and tying up Kov. the punch count is like 10 total punches between 2 fighters. it's a joke.

          I just can't see that at all.
          If judges know the tapes, this was Kova's first fight not "closing" the ring he's known for. Kova left his jab second half of the fight. Ward found spots. I saw it close tbh. But lets be real, if it wasn't for the knockdown, nobody would by hyping this more than it should be. Boone floored both of these guys. This was obviously Kova's toughest fight. Whats ironic even in the inside, Ward looked good against Kovalev since the illusion wad that Kova would be stronger.

          Ward has been bona-fide his chin. He needs more credit!

            Ward ****** that body all night..,,it's like people are only scoring head shots. While Kovalev was slowing down and swinging air, Ward was ****ing a straight left to the body as a setup to every position.

                Scored it for Kovalev, firmly believe Kovalev has another level Ward won't see til the rematch.

                Can't call a clear #1 til then.

                    I had no dog in it, but I had to go with Kova...

                    Ward held as much as Wlad but Wlad gets hated on...Ward holds but on the UK feed not once do they mention Ward holding...talk about bias...

                    Kova was the champ, he had the knock down, and at best for Ward he scored a draw...

                    The ref was straight filth...He let Ward hold and rabbit punch with no warning, the moment Kova did anything resembling illegal tactics ref was on his nuts like white on rice.

                    Draw at best or Kova win, but Ward DID NOT win this fight.

                    Put a clean ref in there that wouldnt let Ward hold Kova would have him on the floor 3x more...

                    Boxing is ****ed...

                    Lets see how Loma Walters goes....I sense another Salido fight.
                    dude wtf kovalev was actually the one clinching more lmao

                      That's what I saw and honestly from round 3 onwards Kovalev landed 4 right hands of which one was halfway blocked. So it's not like Kovalev did much against a one-armed fighter
