I feel sorry for Kovalev

[Santa_]

Man that has to suck. Kovalev got jobbed big time.

There's no way in hell Ward won 7 rounds last night.

And LOL @ all three judges giving Ward the 10th.

Dont forget about perez. Dude got robbed right before.

Don't feel too sorry for Kovalev, he's likely to get another good pay-day in the rematch.

I think it's a little bit more than money with him. That's why he takes the short-end money wise against guys like Hopkins and Ward.

Even now, he talks about getting stiffed in the amateurs and being treated unfairly, and he's sounds in awe of Ward getting an Olympic gold. The point I am trying to make is that he is one of those guys that did it the hard way, and being Champion means something to him, rather just being a money thing. I feel for him, I really do.

The part to feel bad about is the fact that Kovalev will likely have to fight in Oakland next time out. Also Ward is a guy who benefits from seeing his opponent twice. Kov has an uphill battle.

Not sure about that. I read on Twitter that it has to be a neutral location (well, as neutral as it can be still being on American soil). But it won't in Oakland.

Nothing has come easy to Kovalev in his boxing career, I think that is part of his drive. Even his first pro "loss" reeks of the politics and bias that have tarnished our sport. This is the guy who had to deal with the unfortunate guilt of killing somebody in the ring weighing down on him for the rest of his life.

I have supported two great American fighters in Hopkins and Ward and I witnessed Kovalev whoop and outbox them both in ways I didn't imagine, all that with the deck stacked against him. Expect a very scary and motivated Kovalev in a rematch, I think he's going to stop Ward this time, he won't leave it up the judges again.

I would be SICK if i was kovalev and lost my belts to that pathetic decision!!!!!!!!! A joke really

[_Maxi]

Then just ****ing say it. It was a robbery. You all agree that Ward got all the close rounds, and it was "fishy". Then why do you say it with kind words when what you really mean is that Kovalev won and was robbed?

Ward won the fight officially but the fans know who really won yesterday. It's a disgrace. Roc Nation invested well on this man, for sure. Now you know why he was paid 5+ millions.

[SN!PER]

Dont forget about perez. Dude got robbed right before.

Yeah that one was fuuuuucked

[g27region]

well you proved you are a black panther idiot. social media overflowing with people saying Sergi got robbed. I think we saw an affirmative blaction decision. I would not take the rematch unless it was in Russia

"Black panther idiot" lol I'm from Russia in case you don't know and if I have way higher set of standarts for Russian/ex-USSR fighters that doesn't mean I'm "black panther idiot". Look, Kovalev could be an American or UK fighter and in this case, I'd probably say that it was a good performance and the fight was draw but since he was supposed to represent the environment where I'm from, then **** that, I'll try to discredit his performance.

No doubt he is well respected after the Ward fight. It's all the crying around here that's causing the stir and controversy over nothing. If Ward lost close it wouldn't have been this bad.
