    yep--absurd.

    i have absolutely no idea why the standard protocol (like a boilerplate provision in every fight contract) is not something like:

    each fighter choose one judge which must be approved by the sanctioning body; then​

    the two newly selected/approved judges choose the third

    the judges have veto power over referee selection​

    Yet here were are with a Russian fighter, guilty by association, for the Russian doping scandal, the Russian meddling in our election, the treason committed by our chomo/******/traitor in chief, yada yada yada.

    Kovalev let Ward off the hook last time. He won't make the same mistake twice, and Ward will need a KO, or an accidental foul after 4 to win this fight.

    He's going to need to knock him out. Moretti = fix is in. Don't pick Kovalev by decision.

    Both Kovalev and Ward have American citizenship. They don't fly in judges from other countries for domestic fights like they do when someone is traveling.

    It's not an American thing to fight most of your fights in your home country. It's very very rare for it to be otherwise. Look at any major fighter's history. They almost never travel. Ali is maybe the only guy in history who did with any regularity. 100% of Sven Ottke's fights were in Germany, and that's the norm.

    Kathy Duva tried to get neutral judges, but SOB said that Neutral judges would be unfair! Can you believe that? The judges named in the thread are crooks and SOB knows it................who will be the criminal referee? SOB got to pick the judges and referee. When Vlad fought in Germany there was usually an American referee, American judge and couple neutral judges. Why is SOB so afraid of neutral judges?

    Everyone knows the answer to that, it will be another robbery............unless Kovalev knocks that SOB out, but the referee will be protecting SOB, blows to the testicles, legs, behind the head, after the bell, head butts are all legas for SOB...............watch and see. Before the first fight I said that Kovalev had to get a knockout to get a draw..............and I was right. 82% had Kovalev winning the fight, even SOB fans ringside booed the criminal decision, we all know Vegas judges are criminals...................

    Do you have some kind of mental deficiency?

    I'm sure the judges were part of the deal. I bet you Ward wouldn't agree to a fight without 3 American judges.

    I think they are mad that they couldn't get Ward to agree to a Russian judge.
