Will the American officials be fair to Kovalev when he fights Ward?

Will Freedom be fair to Ward when he fights Kovalev?

[Spicoli]

I just like scrolling down and seeing your previous four 'will they be fair' threads

If it's Jack Reiss Kovalev will lose two points before the bell rings. American, Martian or a judge in Botswana..these days you go in assuming a second opponent.

Ward has home country advantage. Las Vegas is not a long drive from the Bay area.

It's like Kovalev fighting in Yakaterinberg - same distance. Ward has home country advantage as always.

I just hope there's an honest referee.

No such thing as home country advantage in the US. Home state, yes. Not home country.

I always use the example of mayweather and pac. Most people in the US were going for pac to win even though mayweather was American. If mayweather were from England, no way anyone from England would be going against him.

most people wanted Mayweather to lose in all his fights but he wasn't exactly on the wrong end of any harsh judging


he was American, and really Americas only major boxing star, fighting in American

8 hours isn't a long drive? Dude it's completely different boxing commissions as well, stop being so fucking paranoid.


Ward has the home country advantage because who the fuck wants to see a prize fight in Russia? If given the option I bet Kovalev would rather the fight be in New York or Atlantic City rather than say...Moscow or Saint Petersberg or Omsk or Novosibirsk. The money is going to be better, the tv will be better.


Refs, Judges.....they ain't gonna save Andre Ward, only Andre Ward can save Andre Ward and frankly I don't see it happening

[Primo Carnera]

One judge gave Canelo a draw against Mayweather. That's a bit harsh isn't it? Especially if one of the other judges saw it that way.

[TitoFan]

One judge gave Canelo a draw against Mayweather.

Don't remind me. Worst piece of judging in the history of the universe.

Although it was never proven one way or the other, word is that she:

1. Was blind and deaf.
2. Was paid off handsomely by GBP.
OR
3. Was getting done by Canelo, Oscar, or both.

yeah very true


you know what tho, there were rounds in that fight where Mayweather didn't throw a punch


it was about the third when canelo was pushing the first 2 and a half minutes, only landed about 3 himself and then mayweather threw one punch and it landed and the commentators were bumming him


im not saying canelo won or owt, I just don't think it was as clear cut as people say

I'd have to see that round again, because I felt Mayweather won every round.

You would.

It was a close fight which Canelo made. Fraud was running around protecting his delicate hands.
