    Stop whining, Ward was kicking Kessler ass before the head butts. If the shoe was on the other foot, Ward wouldnt be able to use the headbutt issue excuse.

        No question that Ward would have won regardless of the butting. Him using the butts despite being superiour in every way, just goes to show that the dirty stuff comes natural to him. Hence the poll.

          Hopkins by 10000000. Hold, hit, headbutt, hold, hit, headbutt.

              Hopkins is the more intelligent "Dirtbag"...Ward's "actions" (intentional or not) are far more clear to see for a referee.

                Yeah. The ref saw the butting even though it was a 'house' referee. He just decided that even though the butting was deliberate and Kessler's face fell apart, it wasn't to be penalized.

                  The ref was biased but what can you do? This should be a hint for the rest of the tournament...TAKE CARE OF THE UNOFFICALS 2 WEEKS IN ADVANCE OF A FIGHT...

                      That's pretty much how Ward was fighting Kessler though. Its's such an ugly and boring style, I don't really care if Kessler lost like that to Dirrell, Ward and 40 year old Hopkins I'd still watch a Kessler vs Froch fight over ANY of their fights any day because Kessler comes to fight and actually entertains the viewers.

                      The styles Ward/Dirrell use are bad for boxing imo, casual fans don't wanna watch that **** and honestly, neither do I.
