Did Ward remind anyone else of a billy goat with that last headbutt?

    No he did not say that. No need to make up lies because the fight didn't turn out how you wanted it to. The fact that you give Ward no credit for hitting Kessler says everything about your mentality and credibility.

      I agree with Tunney.

      Ward isn't the GOAT.

      He's the BILLY GOAT!!!!

As for Tunney he has always hated Ward and I've never seen him give a top American fighter any credit. Even guys that have done it the right like Tim Bradley he would probably say something bad about. Only guy he says anything nice about is Cloud and he probably does that just to discredit Chad Dawson.
        That's just the way he is, no changing that.

        Next he's going to come out with that he had Kessler leading on the scores at the time of the stoppage (basically a TKO)

            Be honest, he DID say something like that. Go and re-watch the fight.

                He definitely should have been disqualified after the last headbutt. It couldn't have been more obvious that he was doing it intentionally, and with the confidence of knowing he wouldn't be disqualified.

                And if he's a devout Christian, why did he lie and say the headbutts were unintentional? A "Son of God" wouldn't do that.
                Tunney, its a fight things get rough in there....he did his job which was to win, your beef is with the ref not Ward. If you have a problem with fouls intentional or not, then scrutinize the ref for not calling them. Kessler too even because he should also protect himself and know how to defend against them better, he being much more experience and a former world champion.

                  He didn't say what you claimed. You're embellishing it. He never said it was intentional.

                      The last headbut was the worst, but overall, there wasn't as many as some are making it out to be.

                      Also, in regards to the holding and hitting, Reiss was allowing both fighters to do it. He told them to punch out. He also went to Kessler's corner and told him that when he says let go, he can keep fighting. But when he says stop, you stop.

                      Ward took advantage of the situation, Kessler didn't because he is unable to fight on the inside.
