    After the cut Kessler wasn't the same, he wasn't that successful early anyway but it was the holding.

    (You can hear the ref say it's from a but in the 4th round) So it was early enough that Kessler could have gotten into his stride later on.

      I don't like all these excuses. Kess got beat. He needs to suck it up now and get back on track for Froch.

      Btw it seems like you spend 100% of your time on here whinging.

        Much respect from a Kessler fan himself. Its a fight for crying out loud, if you feel he headbutted you, headbutt him back.

          That's not boxing. It's the ref job to stop that ****.

            Why don't you actually watch the video I posted.

            Ward holding all the time and the cut started in round 4, not round 8 from a headbutt.

              The ref was letting them fight on the inside.

              Kessler doesn't know how to.

              I'm a Kessler fan and realize this. No excuses.

                I've seen the fight twice. The cut in the forth round was under the eye, and wasn't incredinly serious.

                He wasn't cut badly until later in the fight. That's when all hope when out the door.

                  lets be honest kessler got beat by ward's speed and agility, but that doesn't mean that the holding and hitting and headbutting didn't effect kessler.

                    Why are there no threads on the ref? Shouldnt we be blaming the ref whose job is to call such a thing than blaming Ward?
