2 judges had ward sweeping the fight from round 7 on up, and 1 had a sweep from 5th round all the way to the 11th. They should start interviewing these judges too, to tell the public what exactly they were seeing.

My GOD, YES!!! Please.

Kovalev outlanded Ward in rounds 10 and 12, and those were "swing rounds," so Ward gets both of those rounds? Come on. It's impossible to not give Kovalev one out of the last 6 rounds, unless you're clearly biased for Ward. In which case these judges obviously were.

I haven't done the math, but I assumed Ward had to win 8 rounds to make up for the knockdown.

How did Ward get the 10th? On all three cards? Can't understand that at all. Ward should have been given the 3rd as well.

He clearly lost the 10th and 12th rounds imo.

I haven't seen the fight yet so I'll assume that Ward was on his game. I always said right from the beginning that if Kovalev didn't knock Ward out, Ward would win on points. Vegas venue wouldn't see it any other way IMO. For those who did see it was it a decisive win or could it have gone either way?

Agreed. Really, I mean, this just comes down to incompetent judging, no?

I mean, it was competitive obviously, close? Sure. But I can't see ANY way that Ward gets both of those rounds.

That is terrible/biased judging without a doubt.

I think as more people rewatch the fight and watch rounds 10 and 12, and start to give Kovalev at least one of those rounds- then remember he lost by 1 point, they'll start to realize that he should of won.

Kovalev won 5 of the first 6 rounds.

That means Ward has to sweep the last half of the fight to win, he conveniently done just that on two cards despite clearly losing at least one round (two on my card).

Under card and main event, pure corruption.
