    Give Ward his props, NSB

    According to alot of people, Mikkel Kessler was prime, the #1 SMW in the world, and the favorite to win the Super Six . All of a sudden he's a bum because he loses. NSB is mindboggling sometimes.

    There wasn't an annoying amount of clinching involved and the headbutts (which came late in the fight) were accidental and wouldn't have changed the outcome of the fight.

    Kessler got outboxed on the outside and outfought on the inside. He couldn't land **** on Ward.

    No excuses. Ward whooped that ass in the most legitimate way possible. :up:

      'Most legitimate way possible' I wouldn't agree with. But he was the better fighter tonight for sure.

              He headbutted his opponent 5 times, opening nasty cuts above both eyes?

              I don't think anyone will disagree that Ward was dominating, but after the 5th round he started fighting sloppy as hell (Jumping in with no head movement), and with constant heabutts, there was absolutely no way Kessler could capitalize and make a come back.

                Kessler fought flat, didn't jab and looked very lethargic Jr. But a lot has to be said w/ what Ward was able to get away w/ also.

                Kessler is of a different culture and a gentleman and he was taken advantage of by the ref because he thought they were playing by the rules.

                Which it was clear they weren't. In light of all that, I wasn't all that impressed by Ward.

                He has a lot of bad habits, an ugly style and won't be able to get away w/ it much longer.

                    Credit to him for what he did do boxing-wise, he has skills, but I think there's a question mark from the moment Kessler lost vision.
