Why wouldn't Kessler press the fight?

[CiganoBoxer]

I think Ward fought the perfect fight ...he already had the Calzaghe blueprint on how to beat kessler...IMO i don't think there was nothing more Kessler could do...Ward used similar same tactics as calzaghe did ...if you remember after the calzaghe lose ..Kessler complained that calzaghe beat him via holding then punching ...Ward would of watched the calzaghe fight !
i don't see Kessler ever beating Ward in a return,,,nor going on to win the tournament...witch i thought at first he would

It will be interesting to see Kessler vs. Froch, it will show if Kessler has declined or if Ward is as great as he looked. It's a bad situation for Froch, anything less then a KO of Kessler will make him look bad after how Ward handled Kessler. If Kessler on the other hand beats Froch it will show that he still is to be reckoned with even if he clearly showed he has big problems with slick, fast fighters.

I dont think Kessler has declined at all. He just cant beat a guy like Ward. Not with the style and speed that he can fight at. The only way Froch beats Kessler is if the loss kills his confidence. I dont think it will.

He was too busy gettin his ass kicked.

Yeah.

"3 punches, move in with the head and grab repeat x fight".

He got owned harddddd by the most boring style ever.

I was very dissapointed in him.. Several times early on he had ward backed into a corner and was laying in compinations but he would just back off even though Ward made no comeback. Was he afraid of Ward?

He hadn't prepared for a southpaw, he underestimated Ward's speed, and he was cut over each eye from headbutts.

In short, he wasn't able to adapt, so he froze.

Kessler is done. Credit to Ward, I think he's a very tricky fighter and before the fight > I knew he'd give Kessler problems < (hence me not being able to pick a winner), but Kessler is not what he was two years ago.

Why?

Do we even need to discuss it?

Three rubbish opponents in two years mixed in with a ton of legal crap because he tried to get out of his contract with Palle because ... all he was getting was three rubbish opponents in two years. How can any fighter progress and stay sharp? This is enough to **** with any fighters head.

Kessler would probably have lost anyway, but that badly? I doubt it. He was flat as a pancake, because he is done. I don't see him getting back to how he used to be. What makes it worse is the damage he took in that fight. Those cuts could open up again, especially when fighting ******, rabbit-punching Froch and his MMA tactics.

Ward controlled the range masterfully. He had Kessler afraid to throw punches in fear of being slipped and countered the whole fight.
