    Hes a seriously skillfull headbutter ill give him that alrite, there is being hard to hit and illusive like very good boxers such as floyd and then there is just plain dirty, like ward, he uses his awkard style and ends up using his head as a weapon

      He does that every fricking fight.

      It sure looks intentional to me.

      Why does he have to lead with his head? Why can't he fight normally?
      like i said, theres a difference between being sloppy and intentionally headbutting a guy u are beating down. he had no reason whatsoever to headbutt kessler. for him to intentionally aim to do so would make that guy a nutcase, unstable along the lines of golota or tyson or even mccall. there is nothing at all to suggest that.

        how about u guys devote your time to a real robbery. this wasnt one. so the fact that this is being discussed so late is silly. a boxer got headbutted a few times, is anyone really that suprised???
        ok, so just because the fight wasnt close then ward should get a pass on that sort of stuff, i dont think so

              So he gets a pass because his style when coming in is illegal?

              He's not nuts and he knows how to box.

              He's good enough and skilled enough not to lead with his head.

              I hate the **** he does in the clinches and wish the ref would call it to stop his bad habits.

                ok ima end it like this, headbutts aside, was there much of a chance of kessler winning the fight???

                and even if the ref had warned ward and proceeded to take points from him, would kessler had won the fight?

                if not, how did the ref in any way influence a fight where no matter what he did, the same outcome was likely?

                or do u just feel sorry for poor old kessler, a boxer who takes punches to the face for a living?

                or do u just want to hate ward for dominating someone no1 thought he would? one fight makes him the next hopkins...only on boxingscene...

                  Make him stop Bhop. Write him a letter.

                  When I am in Cali next week, I will call him and ask him to cease and desist.

                  Of course I think he can beat Green so I will congratulate him then ask him to stop with the leading with the head.

                      idc if he gets a pass or not, by why the hell are pppl whining about it??is kessler still whining about it???if ward lost a point for headbutting, so be it, he would have still won. why are ppl acting like he's a dirty fighter, when he is obviously just sloppy, are u looking for a rrason to hate the young guy?

                      he's nothing like bhop, theres nothing to suggest hes malicious, hes very humble and he's devoted his life to boxing. im just sayin, u guys go to great lengths to villanize ppl. the world isnt black and white, its shades of grey.
