The Official Sergey "Krusher" Kovalev vs Andre "S.O.G." Ward Fight Thread

[LeMAO]

Lederman's 116-111 score was correct.
US judges and Ref what do you expect this is Las Vegas
Black Privilege , yes i said it

 

[malbaker86]

LOL he didn't say all that, just that he was a little surprised at the judge decision

I indulged but he knew Kovalev won

 

[Lefty Gunz]

Cacs mad

 

[FaTaL]

[R=G]

Roc Nation cooked the books first that Hooker shyt now this Kovalev got robbed

Robbed? U cant call it a robbery..that's going way too far..

I had it 115-112 Ward, but I could see how it could be scored the other way. I liked how Ward picked up his pace and kind of found his footing after getting beat up the first 3-4 rounds. I would have given Kovalev more rounds if he had just picked up the pace or at least matched Ward's a little bit more. Just a Coli nikka scoring the rounds though. Not an expert by any means.

Jim mentioning the Cold War

I had Ward winning it in a close fight as well. He won a lot of the later rounds.

 

[Liquid]

alright fam be honest with me was is this decision really that controversial what was people watching ward was breaking him down in the latter rounds

It is because Ward was given every possible close round like Max pointed out to win by a point.

It is a controversial decision. Next fight in Russia

Lampley mad, RJJ with his own Rocky 4 speech.

Lederman not very good, and Max voice of reason.

Am I still the only one that misses Larry Merchant at times like these?

 

[nomoreneveragain]

Even if Andre lost the fight it wouldn't have done anything to tarnish his legacy.

Kovalev is a great boxer, he doesn't get enough credit for that.

 

[Jello Biafra]

Everything Jim Lampley said was some Trump style "Putin's not so bad" bullshyt and HBO needs to fire his drunken, lobster claw lady loving, sexual assaulting ass immediately because dude is awful as a broadcaster.

 

[Nemesis]

All of SKY sports including Paulie Malignaggi had Ward winning ....

I had Ward by 1 point.... Ward done the better work during the middle rounds.... landed the better shots

but it was a very hard match to judge, I felt it could go either way

Ive been boxing for 25 years since I was 9 years old and I tend to look at the fights from a purely technical standpoint ......

pressure means nothing if you dont do anything with it

 

[THE MACHINE]

People thinking American judges gonna favor a brotha over a euro Go pick up a history book
