Okay I'm going to be completely honest and say that I am not going to watch this again from a different angle. What did you guys assess from this video?
We are scoring it from different angles now? Whats next, slow motion? How many times are we supposed to rewatch it to convince ourselves that Ward somehow won? This is as bad as May-Pac, having to rewatch multiple times in order to convince oneself of the ideal victor
Round 1 Kovalev 10-9 Round 2 Kovalev 10-8 Round 3 Kovalev 10-9 Still (But Closer) Round 4 Kovalev 10-9 Round 5 Kovalev 10-9 Still (But Closer) Round 6 Kovalev 10-9 Round 7 Ward 10-9 Still (But Closer) Round 8 Ward 10-9 Still (But Far Closer) Round 9 Ward 10-9 Still (But Closer) Round 10 Kovalev 10-9 Still Round 11 Ward 10-9 Still (But Closer) Round 12 Kovalev 10-9 Still (As Close To Even As you can get) 116-111 Kovalev.... Still A few observations, from this vantage point Ward's inside game was far less impressive in the second half, he was spoling more than anything, Kovalev's inside game was better in the first half than it seemed, Kovalev's defense was more impressive from this angle, my score stays the same. A legit argument could be made for up to 4 maybe 5 even rounds, the 3rd, the 5th, the 8th. and the 12th are ridiculously close. Which would make it. 117-114 Kovalev You guys should rewatch it as well, its worth a look.
Completely agree with you about the inside thing. Kovalev pretty much neutralised Ward there. Ward managed to land very few scoring legal shots on the inside, and when you take that away, Kovalev was clearly landing the more telling blows from the outside, there is no question Kovalev won.
I was going to post this video earlier when I first watched some of it, but I thought the mods would delete it so I didn't bother.
you didn't watch the vid..watch it if you have a free time .i had kovalev winning by the way...its just in this vid its way more clearer..for those who kept saying ward did edge actually i had same score...i scored the 7 round for kovalev or maybe i just thought ward did a great job at 7 but after watching it i thought kovalev landed the clear shot.. then round 5 i thought ward won it but its not kovalev won it then round 11 i thought it was wards best round but kovalev landed solid shots also this round, then 12 kovalev won it this is my card before this vid is this it changes but not much i had 7-5 kovalev but after rewatch the vid i gave the round 5 to kovalev even if you were to generous to the challenger ward did not win this bout..its not close its clear that kovalev won the bout even ward made a good account of himself in this fight i cant give the nod . 10-9 kovalev 10-8 kovalev 10-9 kovalev 10-9 kovalev 9-10 ward 10-9 kovalev 9-10 ward 9-10 ward 9-10 ward 10-9 kovalev 9-10 ward 10-9 kovalev 115-112
This is the vid i watched it mostly on a few times which clearly shows Ward did not win, I didnt change my score ,still had it 8 rounds to Kovalev ,no less thsn 7. This vid is useful moreso for ppl who have difficulties scoing what LOOKS like close rounds for Ward.
interesting e... the vid shows alot lol even the billy the goat shows clearly in this vid lol even the knee of ward when kovalev stumbles in 11 round iirc
People are gullible ,they simply dont understand that commentators, crowd reaction and different camera angles can paint an illusion ,like a magic show .lol Whether its this vid you posted or any vid harder to see ,i always look beyond the smoke and mirrors . Thats some b.s with any commentary referancing this fight could go either way, but then again ppl think just because you are at ring side you see everything but you really dont which ironically is where the judges sit ..SMH
