they are but this was hardly a robbery

a robbery is only a robbery if the result was very obvious but the judges still had it a draw or the other fighter
in this case we can't talk about that, while most observers had Kovalev, you can make a case for Ward winning with those swing rounds. You can't make a case for Ward winning more than 114-113 or so but none of the judges did, in fact all of them had exactly 114-113.

robbery would have been if two judges out of the three had it Ward by a wide margin even if the 3rd one would have got Kovalev winning

and let's be honest, however each of us saw the first fight, Ward won the war with the second fight.
Out of the two Ward was the one who by the end of the 2 fights figured out and break both mentally and physically his opponent
Kovalev is a very good fighter, very dangerous too, but he was kind of a bully too and he wasn't used to opponents being mentally strong enough and skillful enough to fight back
I see what your saying but I just thought it was a easy fight to score, even without the knockdown I had Kovalev wining, the knockdown really put it over the top. Also most people in the boxing world feel the same way.

yeah i had kovalev 114-113 too...114-113 is fine for either fighter but if you thought either won by any larger margin than that, then :camby: to your scores

easy to score is not what I would call it
plenty of nip and tuck, swing rounds.

":whoa:I think right now I think it would be a mistake to go right out there and challenge Errol Spence. Spence I think is the best fighter in the division. He's very strong, very talented. I think we have to take it easy on that fight.:merchant:

"Mikey might be able to beat a few welterweights - but if we pick the right welterweights Mikey might be able to compete in that division:lupe:. It would have to be the right welterweight and not Errol Spence:whoa:."

Honestly he will be avoided for a very long time. I doubt anyone at 147 or 154 will fight him. I also think he will be the future P4P king. Or at least he can be. It'll be between him, Loma and Crawford.

Round 10 I thought Ward gave away to an extent and I thought would have been enough to give Kov the fight by a hair. I've been meaning to watch it over again though. I had no problem with however anyone scored it in whomever's favor so long as it was a razor thin decision because neither one was really decisive.

Second fight though........
