    I always thought Tyson deserved the win in the holyfield rematch.

    In the words of John McEnroe... you cannot be serious.

    It won't be overturned because it was a fair and correct stoppage.

    What corruption is this you speak of?

    Ward beat Kovalev up and stopped him. Nothing corrupt about that.

    No he hasn't. What you've seen posted is from a fake twitter account.

    Please stop spreading misinformation.

    Definitely an awful stoppage. Though Ward would have stopped him later on. Kov was absolutely spent and done. But it doesn't change the fact that Weeks was incompetent forsure, which is odd since most considered him a good referee. They loved him when Maidana was allowed to foul PBF all day.

    Not sure what a SJW cuck is - care to explain?

    Nothing illegal about the blow anyway. Right on the beltline, nowhere near Kovalevs balls as you can verify from his reaction. Sore losers really are the worst.

    Kovalev was taking too much punishment without firing back. Weeks had no choice.

    Weeks was never a good referee, he always protected the hometown fighter maybe except for the Floyd - Maidana fight. Just like when he deducted a point from Fury after a foul but didn't punish Wlad after a headbutt that he obviously saw. A good and unbiased referee is like Steve Smoger for example. Smoger doesn't get any big fights anymore, guess why... Yet Week does and Adalaide Byrd can be a judge.

    Fighters recover from getting stunned all the time.

    Juan Manuel Marquez was stunned and hurt pretty badly in round 5 of fight 4 vs Pacquiao, round 6, Marquez had recovered from that onslaught about midway through the round and at rounds closing, lights out!!!

    Kovalev got destroyed. Plain and simple.

    The reason I disagree with this is because they were body shots though later on being borderline low blows. If he was taking punishment to the head at the end I'd accept it. But body shots only? No. The stoppage was far too premature for me. I think it was absolutely awful. Kovalev was absolutely done though and maybe I just wanted to enjoy watching Ward beat on the racist more.
