Just accept the L and move on. We all know this appeal won't result in anything other than making him look like a sore loser.

Lol he was probably convinced by Duva to do this. He knows as a fighter that he lost but he's listening to what the people around him are saying. This is actually going to make him look good, contrary to what some think, it's going to look like they are fighting a really bad call to the end and they will be able to use this appeal win or lose, as part of his come back story. Americans all did him in, the ref, Ward, NSAC, he had no chance, against all odds, etc. It's a smart move, not one he thought of, it was the people around him.

Some people just can't accept defeat. This is shameful.

Sore loser almost got KOed and had no intention on continuing. Mental midget!

pathetic

Ward will haunt this man for the rest of his life. He needs to accept he was beaten fairly and move on.

That was like the fourth low blow that Ward connected on,, instead of stopping the bout, Tony Weeks should have deducted Ward 1 Point. I can't stand low blows or headbutts I believe any Fighter guilty should get 1 point deducted on his first offense not the 3rd or 4th
