Kovalev / Ward round 3 only

even press people who scored it 115-112 for kovalev gave round 3 to ward.

not really because round 3 was the second most obvious ward round. the most obvious ward round being round 9.
I'd rather you say you had it 118-109 Kovalev giving him only those two rounds. no way did Kovalev win round 3. not even close.

 

I see you got booted. Must be from the other thread. Very tough moderators around here. Watch what you post next time. See you when you are back.

 

video perfectly shows who the winner

Good video. I know it showcases all of Kovalev' highlights but it shows how much his jab controlled the fight.
At ward's best in the fight I felt he held his own with Kovalev.
At Kovalev's best in the fight I felt he dominated Ward.
Easiest way to summarize it.
Kovalev won

 

Well, kovalev threw and landed more punches as well as scoring the knock down along with being the champ shows he clearly won a close fight.

There really is no debate. Thankfully most reasonable observers appreciate that kovalev really won the fight while the Son of Judges won on paper.

Ward had no answers to Kovolev's vicious unrelenting power except to fight dirty, which consisted of running on the back foot holding and spoiling.

Ward got so desperate he started wrestling along with low blows and clinching. When you see Ward sitting in his corner after each round he was clearly and visibly distraught to the point where Virgil had to shout orders in his face like a military drill sergeant to wake him up and realise that the fight was drifting away from him.

It's truly tragic hat such a majestic sport is still to this very day, rife full of corrupt officials. The same type of corruption that sees Mayweather do what he likes with the 750ml IV Gate which we're still waiting for proper answers, instead we are subjected to the mumbling word's from USADA's pr covering.

The letter addressed to Thomas Hauser still hasn't answered the question as to why was Mr Floyd Mayweather allowed to use an IV agent and how NSAC handled the situation and didn't overturn the results.

 

Daft post. The only obvious Ward rounds were 7 and 8.
