    And it makes sense if HBO supplied video because they aired the fight but no idea why Hauser in particular was involved.

      You should all of watched the fight instead of hitting the crack-pipe together. kovalev lost every round! Tony Weeks saved kovalev from the extra beating he was going to get.

        Who knows why Hauser got involved, maybe he's got a hard on for Ward?

        And speaking of hard ons I'm certain Max Kellerman creamed himself Saturday night. The guy couldn't stop gushing about everything Rigo and Ward did. And Rigo did absolutely nothing until his illegal punches and after the bell KO
        ^^^^This. Bob Bennet was clueless with regard to the Rigo/Flores fight. Also, you can clearly see the low blows on Kovalev in any video you chose to look at. Either way the fault lies with Tony Weeks and whoever oversees his incompetence. Kovalev might have gassed out but we'll never know due to the early stoppage.

            People can say that Kov was doubled over and wasn't responding. How else was he suppose to react after getting uppercutted in/around the nutz with 3 consecutive shots?
            You guys are crazy! Ward shut him out! kovalev did NOT win a round.

              That line gave me a good laugh.

              It's amazing and somewhat disturbing that some people only see what they want. I watched the fight live and have seen multiple replays, the body shots leading up to the stoppage were good, all of them! The last shot Ward hit Kov with as low, that's it.

              Funny how when their guy losses (Kov), all of a sudden the ref is incompetent, the commission is on the take and other experienced pros that saw the shots as legal don't know what they're talking about............

                Stop with your agenda. Ward shut this dude out. No way kovalev won a round. Competitive yes but Ward dug in this boy and took him out! Tony Weeks saved this boy from extra beating. And why is nobody talking about steve erkul trunks that was up to kovalev's *******?

                  I don't know. I didn't even know that such a decision could be overturned.

                      The punches were beltline, just when Kovalev bended that he couldnt continue thats was the lowest but he was done at that point he also bended

                      As far as scoring im sure had Ward up but it was close, i wasnt agreeing with HBO thats for sure that a crazy card, Ward was landing big counters n body shots
