Settle this once and for all; Were those punches LEGAL or ILLEGAL???

[BKM-]

Absolutely illegal. More and more angles are coming out showing it better, on the last one I saw during the post fight interviews you could clearly see atleast 2 where Ward's low bows are embedded into the area below the belt.

Were all of them too low? No, but clearly more than one was(I counted about 4 with 2 of the last ones being open and shut cases) especially the most decisive ones. The ref was corrupt and made a terrible call. Weeks has ruined fights in Kickboxing as well.

The fight has shown us all why Ward is overrated and not as good as made out, 1 low blow to set up à big cheap shot then he finishes off with three consecutive lowblows direct infront of the referee.
The fight should have happened in Russia.

At least two of the final shots were low, but Sergei was already badly hurt.

Early stoppage. Ward would have won either by points or legit KO to the body. Bad ending to a great fight.

I've been informed that you're quite the racist towards black folks so unfortunately I can't count your vote.

They have shown angles that prove with out a doubt the final sequence of punches were low with out question. What a s7it show this entire card was. Im glad I didnt buy it, I honestly dont see myself buying anymore PPVs, free streams are too good now.

[DeadLikeMe]

the beltline isn't wherever you pull your ****ing trunks up to, it is the top of your hips to the bottom of your abdomen...that is the line that defines the beltline

[Hype job]

Just wait until the other angles that HBO conveniently omitted come out.

Punched on the white trunk... do I need to say anymore? Kovalev should've took his point loss & went down. Early stoppage... but go down man pic.twitter.com/VoTA1V6j3P

That was one of many low blows and not the final one

[HarvardBlue]

The ref didn't say it was low so...

LEGAL!
