Give Ward his props, NSB

[flyest1]

What a performance.

[Don Johnson]

....Because??

he held wayyyyy too much and those headbutts were deliberate. He used every damn dirrty trick in the book and that ref was terrible. With that being said, Kessler wasn't going to win the fight anyhow. I was pulling for him but, after the 4th round it became apparent he wasn't going to win.

u have to give ward big props no doubt ... i didnt think he had a performance like that in him ... completly different fight from the sugar poo and even the miranda fight. fought excellent from rd 1 -12 ... didnt like the ref holding and that last butt was pretty blatant but it wouldnt have made a difference anyways ...

Don Johnson, your career is 20 years past its prime. :down:

I hear you JR. From about the 3rd round on Ward picked up his pace and he was effective. I actually thought he would stop Kess late despite the cuts. CanT wait to see his next fight. Ive been waiting for him to get his title shot and he didnt disappoint. Big ups to Dre Ward

people would've said that about Cotto/Margarito too (in favour of Cotto), boxing doesn't work like that.
