WHAT A beautiful FIGHT!!!
Kovalev looks done!
Ward is gaining strength for some reason.
But Kovalev has already won a decision.
Kovalev should win by 2 points due to the knock down.
Boxing wise, ward schooled him tho
DAMN!!!! WARD WON!
WHAT!
THe judges saw the boxing I guess.
REMATCH!!!!
114-113 Ward
OMG
REMATCH NEEDED!
What a FIGHT.
That Harold Letterman is a total with his scoring!
Kovalev slowed down MAN!
Ward worked that body, and the judges rewarded him for it.
Damn feel sorry for Kovalev.
Should have been a draw.
What a fight , I thought kovalev took it tbh
Same. If it wasn't for the knock down, hands down Ward won.
But Ward showed that championship heart with this CRAZY KRAZY puncher.
To be fair, I would give it a draw.
You think the american judges favoured the american fighter?
Best, I'm sure if you re-watch the fight, you will see from the 4th round Kovalev faded.
Alot of those punches didn't land clean like Ward's.
Anyways, the people want a rematch.
Boxing wise, Ward schooled him.
i saw it and wanted ward to win...im happy with the decision but you gotta beat the champ.
this was a draw in my book
I'll rewatch the fight when it comes up on YouTube.
Agree, a rematch is needed. Neither fighter won convincingly.
Kovalev is such an ugly/awkward boxer. If you neutralize his power, he is done.
You saw how weak he was after the 8th round from about 2 rounds of body punches.
Nothing new here.
Ward is easily greater than May...been saying it for years. He fights opponents he has no business to fight and wins..unlike May who never fights any one on time and just runs around like a ballerina. We wanna watch fights...not the ballet
I scored it 114-113 Kovalev with both figthers winning 6 rounds each ..Knockout deciding the game.
I can see why its scored as a tie or in favour of ward though. Ward was clearly the better figther from 6-11..
4,5,12 were hard rounds to score.
I agree with you, but Mayweather is a beautiful boxer to watch once he gets going.
Ward fought very tough compe ions during the years.
If Kovalev moved down to Ward's weight class or if Ward had more power, Kovalev would have got knock down today the way Ward connected in the later rounds.
I agree with you also.
This fight was simply too close.
But judging the boxing, Ward torched him. Kovalev can't box, really.
Dude I boxed for many years...I train MMA. I love boxing it will always be my baby...I really dont enjoy Mayweather's style but to each their own. His defense is amazing and I enjoy it but his offense is more boring than a golf match. I think Mayweather is proof how badly casuals will root for a winner...dude is dull as to watch. As much as I give Lebron at least hes amazing to watching on the court...May is like watching an engineer do his work...its very impressive but i dont really care.
All judges had Ward winning for the 5th. The boxing took over.
You boxed? Dude, slap fights with your sister dont count.
Anyone who has trouble appreiciating Money's game is not a real boxing fan. Its ridiculous how any true boxing fans cant enjoy a masterful defender like Money.
Ive mentioned for years I train combat sports for nearly a decade. I enjoy it
Yup..like I said 4,5,12 were the hardest rounds to score. I had to rewatch the 5th and 12 rounds again to make a decision...but even after rewatching, I couldnt make up my mind so I just went with whoever i thought was punching more according to their plan for that specific round.
In the end, I gave Kovalev the 12th round because ward kinda backed off in the last round even though kovalev looked super gassed.
