    So maybe we should have a commision doctor roid up both fighters so we can see boxers endure superhuman beatings.

    Sounds awesome!

    But they need to deduct points for those butts.

      I must have missed that fight,I'm gonna watch it I want to see how Bute handles Bika..But I hope the Kssler fight comes off would be a good fight imo..The question will be how much did Kessler eye really heal,and will the slightest touch open it back up..

        I guess sparring will tell. Kessler hasn't sparred for nearly a year now because of the injury.

          I'm gonna disagree here,Ward is fighting his fight I've never seen anything that I really felt was dirty..Its a fight guys not dance,you don't like what a fighter is doing to you in there do something about it..I have never seen Ward throw an intentional butt so I won't say he is dirty..As far as Peds go,if Ward is on umm Donaire is on umm too..

            Hard to tell if a headbutt is intentional... But the fact that it happens all the time with Ward makes him look dirty. And you should rewatch the Bika fight, at some point he hits Bika with an elbow that I can't even pretend wasn't intentional. Around rounds 7-8 if I recall.

              I would think that his head is sparring with Tim Bradley's head in order to refine the use of head to the extent that they make it look like an "accidental" headbutt every time

                For sure I'd love to see Magee destroy Bute and I mean destroy. The judges are very much Bute's people so Magee needs the big KO.
                Too bad, you'll have to satisfy yourslef with Bute destroying Kessler soon.

                  yeah, do, watch the fight

                  you'll see how a talented fighter handles bullies like Bika, unlike Ward who fought a very ugly and dangerous fight against the slugger...

                  even Ward has admitted himself he could have fought Bika the way Bute did (i.e. fight him intelligently from the outside)

                    I think I do remember that..But I should re-watch it cause in the moment it did not seem intentional..But I still say if ya know a fighter has some questionable tactics you have to be ready to do something about it..No??

                      There are rules in boxing. One of them being that it is illegal to lead with your head. Apparently that rule doesnt get enforced in Joakland where Ward could get away with bloody murder.
