    Like a spoiled child Ward demanded home country advantage for ALL his fights, while everyone else had to travel.

    But they still could have had the Super Six without Ward.

    The honorable thing for Showtime to do would have been to replace the pampered Ward with someone else like Bika or Bute.

    Sauerland should have pulled Kessler out when they learned that Goossen, Ward and his manager Al Haymon were using a local California referee, Jack Reiss.

    They agreed to use NEUTRAL referees, it was in the Super Six contract.
    Ward isn't/wasn't managed by Haymon. Dirrell was. If you're going to continue to whine about this fight for years on end, at least get the little things right.

      Kessler was fighting two men that night: Ward and Reiss.
      Totally ignorant statement born out of pure anti American sentiment. Though he made this post, even Freedom isn't dumb enough to believe it

        Ward is levels ahead of that version that schooled Kessler, he was what 25? Ward will beat him even more convincingly.

        Ward doesn't want to travel because he doesn't want to get robbed, if that Froch fight was in the UK Ward loses that fight by UD in one of the worst robberies ever. Just look at the scorecards from Wards dominating performance two guys had it 115-113 lmfao. And that was in AC.

          Want to bet? 30 billion Ward > Kessler in a rematch.

            It's was an injustice.

            Like ShoulderRoll have on his avatar: "never, ever let them forget"

            People still go on about Ottke-Reid, but you don't find anything wrong with that.

            What makes it worse is both Goossen and Ward claim to be devout Christians. Goossen seems more like a wolf in sheeps' clothing to me, and Ward seems more like a billy goat than a sheep.

              Ward will NEVER have a title fight against a top contender outside the USA, and in the USA he'll have referees who'll let him use illegal tactics .

                      Blah blah blah. In other words, you were spouting off nonsense again because you're a clueless race baiting/obsessed clown. Incidental headbutts happen all the time. Reiss didn't cost Kessler the fight though he could have done better. Kessler lost because he didn't have a clue how to fight inside. Reid got warned for punching Ottke in the face. A little different.

                      And people rarely bring that fight up. You, however, start threads on occasion still to whine about a fight where one guy won 11-0. Whatever.
