he didnt, clearly lost the 12th and was badly hurt by a body-shot if i remember correctly.

This is what they mean by commentators swaying viewer

****ing bull**** punchs in a clinch shouldnt be scored

Those same punches managed to slow Kovalev down considerably, you can't be serious here. And it was Kovalev doing more of the holding to avoid it.

badly hurt lol *** off, he MAY.. key word MAY have been hurt but he really didnt show if he was. Ward landed better punches that round

Honestly it really does, I'm scratching my head at Ward being hurt by a body shot in the 12th....if you watched HBO then it would be hard not to be swayed by Jim "**** ****" Lampley who honestly should consider retirement, he scores a lot of missed punches and often misinterprets someone being hurt.

What is an "average scorecard"

A breakdown of how many has ward vs how many had kov would be better. Why average it out?

Er because im supposed to *** off because i dont have the same opinion as you?
hbo told me? i didnt even watch the hbo broadcast...

When a fight is really close, 114-113 is always an appropriate scorecard

[BoxingFan85]

Very close fight I had it 6-6, 114-113 Kovalev. I was expecting a split decision that could have gone either way. Close fights are never robberies.

I had it even with 6-6 and because of the KD my score was 114-113 Kov.. But even considering the margin for error I think a draw could have been the 2nd best outcome..
