    I've changed my opinion on the Andre Ward fight

    I was one of the people calling foul yesterday, but after rewatching the fight Ward won rounds 7 to 12 plus the 5th and Kovalev won rounds 1 to 4 and the 6th so that's 114 - 113 Ward including the kd.

          I think people get too emotional in the moment. I have no problem if someone thinks Kov won. But it was in no form a robbery. People get blinded from the kd and see Kov walking forward and think that's all you have to do sometimes

            Those inner-city schools are really letting kids down.

              I couldn't be more that this was an either way fight.

              Yet again another of example of a close fight being called a robbery.

                  Good on ya for speaking up about it.

                  I watched that one 4 times and I keep giving it to Ward, narrowly. Same with the 4th, which I just have to hand to Kovalev.

                  ^This. Remember when Max had to pump the brakes and say "he hasn't won the fight just yet" after the KD? Even I though Ward was done at that point.

                  Agreed. Everyone wanted to call it a 50/50 fight going in. But, they don't want to accept that the outcome might be close to 50/50 as well.

                  The fact that the judges were able to see past the excitement of the 2nd round and actually score it reasonably is a sign of what's RIGHT in boxing.
