I think truth is if we are to take all the collective thought then neither man really separated themselves from each other, but overall over 12 full rounds i think Kovalev was more dominant, higher accuracy, more damage & was the fighter who won the rounds that were CLEARLY his more dominantly. Ward stole a few..
Under these circumstances it is unreasonable of you to suggest that any opinion other than yours means irrationality & unknowing of the sport.

I thought Kovalev won the fight. I had picked Ward by UD going into it- but I was thinking a comfortable 8 rounds to 4 type of margin.
Kovalev got the knockdown and I figured 7 rounds to him and 5 to Ward.
That said- I think a rematch actually favors Ward because of the type of fighter he is. I think Ward may win a rematch the way I expected him to win this first fight. He had a terrible start in this fight, he only looked like himself starting about round 7.
They need to immediately rematch. There is no reason not to. I hope they don't screw around and cause any delay. The rematch is going to be a much bigger fight, definitely the biggest fight either can make right now.

The fact is that Kovalev started off strong and even got a knockdown...but by the end of the night many unbiased observers STILL felt Andre Ward had won.
That just goes to show how tight some of those rounds were and that there is a range of scores that would be fair and reasonable.
The decision was no robbery.

Kovalev will beat ward again.
We're not crying, just calling out a gift decision. You though, you'll probably be sobbing uncontrollably when your buddy gets stopped early in the RM.
