Originally posted by Scary View PostNo because the first 7 rounds were something like 5-2 for Kovalev. Ward won 3rd and 5th (or maybe 6th, one of those) Kovalev could've taken the 10th too - 114-113 Ward
So that's 6 rounds for Kovalev already, one of which had a knockdown.
I gave Ward 12. I felt he did just enough in all but round 11. That's 5 rounds.
The only other round, even if you gave it to Ward, it doesn't matter because of the knockdown.
The problem is that people actually were giving Ward rounds in the first half and I frankly don't see why. He wasn't doing anything but getting caught with jabs all night long!

Originally posted by Scary View PostGo back and check out the 5th round. Gotta give that one to Ward. Kovalev only takes one after the 7th, making the 3rd the divider. The 3rd is an important one. Anyways, you agree with me that this fight was as close as they come right? So either man could've won and I'd be happy, but I thought for once, the judges had it right. As you can see I am a Kovalev fan, but Ward was clawing his way back, it already started in the 3rd. Everythingg leads back to the 3rd. I don't like Ward, but damn I respect him, especially after tonight. Always thought he was the real deal, didn't expect him to be so strong mentally to pull a comeback off like that.
I didn't see it "one round close" at all BECAUSE of the knockdown. Had that not happened, then I can easily see a 114-113 score. But it did happen.
