    Im not argueing the out come but you saying that we was bias cuse of kd and we cant see fight as a whole is not fair imo.
    It's cool, I'm not taking it the wrong way but I must say that the concept has weak legs (no offense). Why would people see a guy get dropped by the Krusher and then be convinced, "Ward has got this!" ?

    You could make an argument that if the rounds were reversed, Ward would have been seen as the certain winner by most up until the 11th (where the KD would be if we reversed things) and they'd have a hard time giving it to Kovalev.

    But, it didn't happen that way. I thought Ward was done after the 2nd and didn't think he was going to have much of a chance until we got to the end and I realized he had actually collected enough rds to win. Through the middle of the fight I was just waiting for Sergey to put Andre away but I still made it a point to score it fairly because I figured we'd all be talking it. The last thing on my mind was that Andre was going to turn it around.

            In a close fight the Knockdown AND the simple fact that Kovalev was the reigning champ should mean something.

            Those two factors should have given the nod to Kovalev IMO.

            If there was no knockdown or the fight was for a vacant belt, then i'd have less of an issue with the result.

            You have to be straight up CRAZY to believe that Ward being a USA Olympic Gold Medalist, Kovalev being Russian and the fact that Floyd is no longer active in Vegas was not an influence in this as well.

              He's good but working off a blown up Gamboa win and overmatched pistol win. I like him a lot but he ain't been doing it for years against the caliber of competition Dre has. And whether you put him top 1 or top 5 he's proven his merit
