    You know there are people out there that believe Ward won, like how you believe Pacquiao beat Floyd. Keep crying.

    Kovalev fought extremely well imo and should've proved most people wrong about his boxing ability. I had Ward winning but Kovalev arguably beat him, that's impressive imo.

    Your poll doesn't have proper options. Regardless of who you thought won, "robbery" isn't what I would use to describe it. A simple Yes or No would have been the proper poll.

    i.e - You can think Kovalev won the bout, but not agree that it was a robbery. It was very close.

    This was some ppv, man. First Delarosa-Stevens, Perez-Hooker, and finally Kov-Ward. These decisions went from bad, to worse, and to embarrassingly unbelievable.

    Why do you people LIE!!!!!!!! I have NEVER!! said Manny beat Mayweather EVER!! What I did say was he was robbed of any chance he had by the NSAC who sabotaged him & made him fight in pain while allowing Mayweather his normal Xylocaine. then turned a blind eye to the 750 ml of ILLEGAL saline he received. Giving him a TUE for it THREE WEEKS AFTER the fight proves the point. They made 100 % sure with Moretti & co's ludicrous 118-110 card. Mayweather juiced to the gills fighting an injured opponent BARELY scraped a win. If you bare proud of that youre not a boxing fan at all. All I ever want to see when watching any fight is a FAIR FIGHT between two fighters with the LEGIMATELY better man getting the win
    That did not happen in either fight mentioned. $$$$ , influence & cheating win more decisions these days than boxing skills
    Youre the ones crying if anyone is I just want a fair fight

    Sad part is though he did as much as the judges to ensure Ward won

    The forum poll, boxing writers scorecards boxing people & fans overwhelmingly voted Kovalev the winner
    Heck even the crowd that had been chanting Andre Andre !! during the fight BOO'd the decision
    It was a travesty but parr for the course for Vegas

    Yes it was because no way in hell ward won the last 6 rounds, i mean kovalev winning one round of the last 6 one judge and zero on two judges, haha u just have to laugh at that i think, they must have had their eyes shut rounds 9 and 10 and probably 12, hell even 8 was up for grabs, crazy stuff, those vegas judges have really outdone themselves this time

    robbery is too strong a word, but KO4Clev won it and is still unified LHW champ.
