Disgusting robbery...

Me and four friends watched this. All five had Ward winning. Duva asked for a purse bid with Superman, got it, then pulled out because HBO refused to pay what Showtime would. So Kovalvev, no matter what, will only fight on HBO. Ward will fight for whoever pays the most. So the people that get paid by Kovavlev had Kovavlev winning? Ward won, by the end Kovavlev was hanging on for dear live.

It is G fans that are crying, no surprise. Ward answered G's call and showed G is the one who is scared to be in with another world-class fighter. So Ward moved up in weight, and beat a fighter ranked higher p4p than G. And G's fans claim Ward lost? Really?

After the fourth round, it was hard to find any rounds to give to Kovavlev. The sixth was close but the final six rounds were definitely Ward. Just because you get a knockdown doesn't mean you automatically win the fight. Ward won 7 or 8 rounds. That wins. Pretty simple really. Go ahead and cry, I wonder if Kov will even exercise his rematch clause. I think Kov and Duva know Ward is the better fighter and will beat him 10 out of 10 times. Kov shoulda fought Superman. At least then he woulda lost to someone his own size. Now he can lose to Ward again or fight more bums like Mohammed and Chilemba or whoever these alleged fighters are. HBO lost big time. Ward-Stevenson is going to be a blockbuster. And poor Lampley and Lederman will be watching it on tv like all of us.

Very low % from a Kovalev POV ...

What Chin? Piss of glass?

Having a meltdown? posting this picture like its going to bother team S.O.G on the contrary - Ward got up like a true champion and gave Kovalev a boxing lesson! only a great one does that. Unified baby! Kovalev is sleeping without his belts!!!

Thank you. I agree was absolutely ridiculous, feel for Perez big time.
+ I really don't understand why people put so much emphasis on compubox.. fights should be scored and judged simply by watching the fight without bias.
All compubox should be used for is stats and research purposes for traits, means **** all in the grand scheme of things in all honesty.

A compubox should not be used to influence decisions, If so you weren't watching the fight properly and was just sitting on the fence like a twat.

great post Phil !

Is Jim ever right??? His cards are usually WAY out there.

He's bias for sure by his play by play wasn't always this bad. Usually it was Merchant calling phantom punches, now it's Jim.

[Bonecrasher]

And the shots he landed had more power.

If I were completely generous to Ward it would be at best a draw, and at worst it would be like Lederman's card

There were some terrible decisions tonight.

Such ******ity. When did having more power mean you automatically win the fight? This is not arm wrestling!

[aboutfkntime]

Even blacks think Kov won.

That says it all really

[Pigeons]

You're calling me a dumbass yet you just made no ****ing sense, my friend. Maybe try wording it better next time.
Ward maybe won 6 at most. That's being generous. No way he won 7 or more. How does that confuse you? It's pretty simple.
****ing idiot.

It's not confusing suka, it's just ******ed. You can literally make an argument either way for every round except the 2nd. Be the man your father never taught you to be and show respect regardless of how you feel about the decision.

Everyone wants to see it again. And it will happen again. As it should.
