    Pac is a proven atg and the second best fighter of this era. He's far more proven than kovalev. At the end of his career he deserved to get the nod in a close fight against a guy who has never beaten anyone of note in horn. Hes earned that level of respect from the judges. Do you not see the difference?

    Kovalev held his belts for over 4 years which he worked so hard to obtain after coming from the ghetto's of Russia while starting off with no promoter, compared to Ward who had it all put on a plate for him because his father was a boxer and had connections to the best coaches in America. Kovalev gave Ward all the luxuries he so desired, including tune ups, home advantage, his judges, his refs, his name ahead of his own on the bill and the majority split. Not to mention, he did not have to give Ward a title shot.

    As we can see he deserved just as much as Pacquiao, if not more.

    Wrong and you're missing one key difference horn was a nobody while ward was arguably an atg and At least a hof fighter before ever facing kovalev. Ward had earned a nod in a close fight with a guy who he was seen as greater than. Horn hadnt done anything to earn a close decision against a guy who was 100000 light years greater than him.

    :lol: This is why I love you, you always manage to pull some kind of sly point to get you out of the hole you dug yourself in when your back is against the wall.

    Anyway historically it has always been the champ who been given the benefit of the doubt when it comes to a decision especially when there is a 10-8 round involved in the fight.

    Horn did enough as he was at home, was the one who took control of the fight by being the aggressor, fired more punches, and even the rounds Pac won were close minus the 9th round was the only won he clearly dominated. He was meant to steamroll Horn and the fact that Jeff didn't let that happen while backing Manny up and tattooing his face, shows he deserved to be given the decision as the younger, hungrier fighter with the brighter future for the sport.
