    Good close fight just what boxing needed, much respect to both fighters, just unfortunate the Undisputed Lightheavy titles had to change hands that weak.

              Really feel bad for Perez.

              The poor Columbian deserved to win every round, but the crooked judges robbed him of a win over the privileged Hooker.

              Robert Hoyle scored it 97-93 for Hooker. Disgusting.

                Not to nitpick... but winning 8-4 is winning by two rounds. 6-6 is the midpoint, so getting another two rounds makes it 8-4

                I had the fight a 6-6 draw, but Kov winning because of the KD

                I also feel I was generous to Ward in two rounds, I think the 3rd and 12th. Kov didn't land much, but he always landed the more effective blows in each round

                  So 160,000 buys for the PPV.

                  And with the two robberies on the card, most of those those 160,000 will never buy another PPV.

                      Reality is HE WON AND WAS ROBBED.

                      Reality is MOST PEOPLE THOUGHT KOVALEV WON, including Michel Buffer, Dwyer, Al Bernstein, Dan Rafael, etc.

                      All the non-biased people who watched it.

                      Even some who love Ward like Max Kellerman and Roy Jones thought Kovalev won.
