    Was that the end of the sport of boxing?

    I mean...Ward that do not box but duck-grab-low blows all night, Kovalev that gasses after 4 rounds.

    Referees that do not promote a healthy box but allow dirty tactics like continue grabbing, low blows etc.

    On top of it, referee that not only do not see and penalyze low blows, but stops fight for no reason.

    Kovalev was way ahead on the scorecards, but gassed out, he was probably going to lose the last rounds to a controversial decision or getting KOd, but jesus christ if that is the case let him get KTFOed and do not stop for no reason.

    Ref should've just called the low blow and let them finish one way or another till the end of the fight or till Kovalev take a dive on the floor out of breath.

    Not only this, but did you see what happened with Rigondeaux and the mexican?
    Both of them should have been disqualified, together with the ref and other commission members.
    The blow was way past the bell, and mroeover, the mexican looks like took a dive while he could have stand on his feet.

    Shameful. Boxing is dead.

          No.

          Bad decisions/stoppages have happened before and they'll happen again.

              Sounds like he might be a little of both. They were low but Kovalev was exhausted and finished. He wasn't winning regardless of whether or not the ref let him continue.

                    He should have took a knee or layed out on his belly. No standing knockdowns in professional boxing.
