Best performance of the Super 6 so far: Poll.

While I understand that PERFORMANCE means something far different than best FIGHT, I still go with Kessler-Froch. I just think that it showed both were still in the mix and was the best overall fight of the tournament so far.

However, I'd go with Ward over Kessler if it was based solely on a single performance.

Definitely Ward showing Kessler he wasn't on his level.

Ward beating up Kessler.

Dirrell beating Abraham. Ward headbutted Kessler too much for me to give him my vote.

How many headbutts did you count? Or remember?

Don't remember. I only remember Kessler's eye:

That's part of the Bernard Hopkins school of boxing.. if the ref doesn't warn you, then there's no reason to stop doing it if it gets you closer to the win.

I think its Ward's performance against Kessler, and kind of by a landslide.

Kessler was considered the best Super Middleweight in the world and had given Calzaghe a very tough fight beforehand as well.
Very few people thought Ward had any kind of shot, and plenty of them thought that Ward was going to get KOed. people forget so quickly.

Ward ended up pretty much shutting out Kessler and actually beat him up pretty bad too.


Dirrell-Abe wasnt as impressive to me, because Abraham's weaknesses have been obvious for a long time. people forget his crappy performances against Ashira and Oral among others simply because he pulls off huge KOs at the end, but hes always been a very incomplete fighter.
besides, I actually thought Abe was starting to come on late in the fight, wheras Ward was getting stronger and stronger as the fight progressed.

I remember that cut coming from a headbutt caused when Kessler punched Ward's head into his.

I see a lot of Wards vote but we gotta remember Green is garbage and Abe is a much better fighter imo.
