    Did Ward win tonight because he cheated or b/c he was better? Official Poll!

    Did Ward win tonight because he cheated or because he was better? NSB looks pretty split down the middle on the topic right now. I think Ward used a lot of his ****ty spoiler tactics, and aesthetically I have very little interest in his fights.. but Kessler looked sluggish at best. Poll to follow Please discuss.

    Apparantly, it was because God was on his side. God must really, really not like Kessler.

          He was clearly dominating early on, but the punches while clinching, and headbutts pretty much ensured that there was no way Mikkel Kessler could turn things around.

          After the 5th round, Ward started fighting pretty sloppy, jumping in with no head movement. With the headbutts and nasty cuts, there was just no way Kessler could capitalize on it, though.

          Hard question to answer because he did dominate, but he headbutted Kessler to the point where he couldn't comeback.

            Kessler was outclassed in every aspect. The headbutts were inconsequential to the outcome of the fight.

                    There should be a 'bit of both' option.
