    Yep. I scored 1-4 and 6 and 10 CLEAR for Kovalev with him probably taking the 11th. Ward 5,7,8,9 clear with him probably taking the 12th. With the knockdown Kovalev should have won. Whatever.

    This is terrible - rewarding weak , running fighters. UFC will kill this sport. We're killing this sport with **** like this.

    The American gets the nod in a close fight. Not a huge shock. Personally I had Kovalev winning but think Ward would dominate a rematch.

    I'm amazed that the decision was unanimous, but at least the score is very reasonable.

    Ward got lucky here IMO. The US judges helped him tonight but it is what it is. Congrats to Ward for pulling it off!

    What a fight.

    Cards show how close it was. Could not believe how close it was. Almost every round was close.

    Kov took his foot off the gas because of Wards pressure

    I think Kovalev won, they should defintely do a rematch. Congratulations to Andre Ward for now.

    I think you will find that you are the one who's delusional. Ward dominated the 2nd half of the fight.

    Congrats to Ward, he came back superbly after being shook in the first two rounds.

    Still, Kovalev was very unlucky in my opinion, I had him winning close as did many others.

    I made a ban bet until the end of the month, so I will honour that.

    WAR GVOZDYK!!

    I felt whoever someone is bias for they will feel they won. It was close.

    This is embarrassing man. Respect to Andre for the comeback, but Kov won this clearly.

    Ward shows he's a true Hall of Famer.
