    *** *** and all that....what's up with that???

    Im pissed off due to injustice.
    This isnt about Kovalev, i couldnt care less about him but the fact that a fighter got cheated gets me heated.

    Ward has been getting passes for years and it happened again last night.

        Should every early stoppage be overturned?

        Did Ward land a borderline low blow at the end? Yes, get over it and move on.

          no, the result shouldn't be overtuned. weeks made a bad call. it happens and there's really no precedent as far as i can tell for a case specifically regarding low blows that were not called. it was a headshot that got him going, after all. but that headshot came only an exchange or two after a blatant, hard low blow. kovalev wasn't once given a full 5 minutes to recover.


          weeks looked bad after that one. smells a bit fishy, but again, i'm not goign to go crazy because ward was starting to win the fight and i still think the better fighter won.
          This sounds about right to me. Some questionable things happened in the fight but it wouldn't be right to overturn the final result.

            Wasn't a low blow. 2 good body shots.

              Your tears are delicious.

              Did kovalev score a TKO victory via a rabbit punch?

                71.43% against overturning the verdict. According to Kovalev fans, >70% is an overwhelming majority whose opinion cannot be challenged.

                Changing the result would be a robbery, per your logic.

                  Trying to manipulate the voting and the question since poll results aren't going as planned.

                      i see charlo is the boogeyman now lol. you all wanted him to fight canelo but now you all keep going on about charlo? Whos charlo actually beat, a hype job with no chin. i do think hes a good fighter but hes not in gennadys league, noone at middleweight can beat him.
