Why is Kovalev-Ward considered a robbery when fights like Pac-JMM 2&3 and Hopkins-Calzaghe aren't?

    You should see a fight live sometime. It's easy to say this when you've never been to a live fight to experience the difference.

    Too bad all the fights are another continent away from me.

    I think a lot of people just don't know how to score a fight. Not too long ago there was someone here saying they still would've given the fight to Ward even if there were 2 knockdowns.

    I also feel favoritism and nationalism had something to do with it as well.

    well, K-W was prime prime so there should be controversy. but cowardzaghe Hopkins Bernie was 40something so noone really cared.

    But Ward fans agreed with the three judges who were ringside to score the fight...
