[skanksta]

Damn I'm old. These cards are getting harder and harder to stay awake for

Are you in the USA ?!
Stop moaning - it's 5.35 AM in the UK and my eyes are being held open with matchsticks....

[APerno]

They chose Magdaleno tonight (one because they thought he was probably past it) because he was a south paw; did Lopez looked confused at all early on?

[Gimp Mask]

I just saw Lopez beating that ass...

It’s 4.40 in the afternoon here, enjoying a quiet Sunday.

[lazboy]

Andre Ward has gone on a rant about referees which is somewhat justified however referees allowed him considerable concessions in the manner in which he (ward) fought. The holding, grabbing, bull rushing, shots on the break, etc the list goes on.

lopez was a bit of a prick

[Ricky]

No wonder boxing sucks in America.

this card has been a farce. waiting 30+ minutes per fight.

just watched 2 fighters take needless beatings. why don't refs and corners stop fights that are clearly over? why do they insist a fighter is beat into a coma before waving it off?

lopez was a bit of a prick

Steve Bunce was having rant at the US comms team - for laughing at Lopez's "sweep 'im up" gesture.

Don't forget how Ward "won" the second fight with Kovalev, by repeated shots to the nuts, while the in house mafia vegas referee looked approvingly on. In reality Kovalev beat Ward twice.

What a collection of A.H. tv announcers. That's why I prefer to watch fights in a foreign language that I can't understand.

[Gimp Mask]

Good first round for Alvarez

1-0 Al

[lazboy]

Kovalev staying too long in there pocket up close with his chin up and hands down.

2-0 Kovalev

This fight wont start til round 6-7. Kovalev will be up 5-1 or 4-2 by then.

[DrDuke]

A better start for Kovalev.

[diddy]

3-0 Kovalev

[Gimp Mask]

Round 3 also close. I like the jabs of Alvarez.

2-1 Al

[lazboy]

Round 3 also close. I like the jabs of Alvarez.

2-1 Al

Same. I don’t like the way kovalev is looking and taking punches flush. Seems disorganised.

[diddy]

2-1 Alvarez? What the hell fight are you guys watching? Kovalev has thrown 180 punches to 68 through 3 rounds.

[jamamb]

2-0-1 kov
