    Doesn't surprise me. It's a lot easier to score the fight for Kovalev than Ward. I had Kovalev winning.

      I re-watched it last night. I had it 114-113 Kovalev, possibly even 115-112 Kovalev.

        Ward's mama knows that Kovalev won.

          Same here.

          Even if you gave Ward 6 rounds he still loses due to the kd in round 2.

            You will always get some deviation but when the vast majority especially those who have had long established careers in the sport are calling it for Kovalev then you know ward got a gift.



            You haven't answered the question.

            Did Canelo draw against mayweather?

            Did Bradley beat pacquiao?
            Run from the questions then.
            I don't know why I even bother with this place at times.

                A recent tweet from dan rafael:

                Rewatched #KovalevWard. Kovalev definitely deserved it. Stand by my 115-112 score & could see 116-111. Ward wins if it's a wrestling match.

                    Well just about everyone had it for Kovalev. We have that settled.

                    I'm also glad more people are picking up on the Ward surprise when the decision was announced. That **** was hilarious

                      Some boxing media people who picked Ward to win seemed to give him benefit of doubt in all close rounds to make the scores out to be what they predicted. That is a problem. Everyone wants their prediction to be correct.

                      I thought Ward would win a very close decision. But I was wrong. Kovalev clearly won and got screwed.
