    Has anyone seen or has link to this fight? If you have seen it what did it look like to you? Apparently Kovalev was hurt several times, knocked down and they robbed Darnell Boone, seems the footage has been wiped from the internet

    I thought Boone knocked down Andre Ward and Adonis Stevenson?

    Oh he didn't just knock Adonis down. Boone read him a bedtime story, tucked him in and kissed him goodnight.

    Boone knocked everyone down. You need to step back and think about how stupid it is to imply that Kovalev received a gift win over Boone in the US. Look up Kovalev's NC bout in LA.

    It wasn't a robbery.

    Kovalev was hurt in round one after Boone came out very aggressively, but Sergey came back and dominated most of the rest of the fight. Boone was knocked down and nearly stopped in the 8th and final round.

    There was a rematch in which Boone was knocked out in round 2. https://boxrec.com/en/event/638568/1690978

    No Russian has ever received a gift win in the USA.

    Agree, Grover Young quit vs Kovalev and got a technical draw after pretending he got hit low.

    Very sad. Plenty of them have been robbed here.
