    So two official judges said the champion lost round six, round seven, round eight, round nine, round ten, round eleven and round twelve.

    Who on this board said: "I wouldn't call it a robbery?"

    What you have here is the definition of a robbery.

    Disgrace at best.

    Corruption/fixed fight at worst.

    We go through this too often as boxing fans. The joy of Kovalev & GGG was that you didn't need cards, but as soon as it happens against an A-side, sure enough, the robbery is in.

    And then since they all had it so close, if Kov won any one of those rounds he would have won the fight because of the knockdown in the 2nd.

    This is nonsense. Kovalev and his team need to contest to bull****.

    The Nevada State Athletic Non-commission is gonna be hearing from me and CST80 and many other boxing fans as well. Believe that.

    Not surprising. Ward dug himself out of a hole. First 2 rounds were clear for Kovalev, rounds 3 & 4 were toss ups, after round 4 I thought Ward won pretty much edged every round. (THEY WERE ALL RAZOR CLOSE ROUNDS, BUT WARD HAD THE QUALITY PUNCHES IMHO)

    Ward contested every round, one can make the argument that Kov won 8 to 4 or something, and one can make the argument that Ward won 7 to 5. Ward's punchers were of a higher quality than Kovalev down the stretch. Ward didn't take any rounds off in the 2nd of the fight. Neither did Kovalev, but the higher quality more sensational punchers came from Ward round after round.

    The entire undercard was crooked, Perez vs. Hook was a total disgrace, I knew the fix was in then...................I have seen way too many crooked fights...................Kovalev won the fight, no doubt about it...............

    Pretty damn terrible. For sure Kovalev won AT LEAST ONE of the championship rounds (10,11,12).

    Compubox had Kovalev winning the 10th and the 12th rounds, in terms of punches landed.
