    I'm glad Ward retired. We have much better fighters now.

    Who cares? Ward knocked his ass out in the rematch to make it clear.

    Kovalev landed out landed him in the majority of the rounds got the KD and for sure won the 12th. I scored it 8-4 kovalev a clear win.

    This isn't the amateurs. Its quality over quantity.

    I don't see how Kovalev won 8 clear rounds. Ward landed a lot of bodyshots that night. And he was constantly tagging Kovalev with that stiff jab to the solar plexus.

    No chance. And at what point does cleaner work overrule getting out landed in each round. You're gonna make something up now, theres no criteria. Kovalev was popping wards head back continously with the jab and landing meaty right hands, head shots > bodywork. Also let's say kovalev looked uncomfortable with bodywork, why should that mean more then a KD, in the later rounds Krusher came back, and ward landed less again, he had a patch 6-11 where he got a good few rounds, he made it competitive but he didn't win enough rounds .
    You have a set way of scoring fights that doesn't work, even without your obvious bias.

    GGG >this version of Kovalev.

    And Canelo ducked him yet again, its on record that he'd rather fight NOBODY than GGG ... :deal:

    Except when its Golovkin smashing Canelo around in the rematch. Then it's "b-b-but them bodyshots, doe!"

    Can't watch it? Because it was a 1 point fight that went against your prediction? No wonder your opinion of it is skewed. You are emotionally invested.

    Agreed. Though the wrong guy won in both fights.

    The quality came from Kovalev in the first fight. Quantity too.

    This is like the old joke:

    Patient: “Doctor, it only hurts when I laugh.”

    Doctor: “Don’t laugh.”

    So OP: Don’t watch.

    I’m sorry your guy losing a close decision has scarred you for life and taken away the joy you might have gotten by rewatching it over and over. Go find another fight to watch.
