Is ward win over kessler tainted?

[TOBYLEE1]

What kind of dirty tactics did Kessler get away with?

I meant Ward and Hatton. Never seen Kessler do anything but punch

Ok. I misread your post bro.

I extremely dislike the hit and hold strategy. Refs need to punish excessive clinching a lot more.

LOL....I really hope this rematch happens this year so people can finally STFU

88 clinches?! Wtf! All Ward was doing was punching while holding. Kessler beats him in a fair rematch!

I love how everybody fail to say that besides that video of Ward holding Kessler was getting completely dominated.

The only thing I remember from the fights are the deliberate headbutts by Ward, it was disgusting esp when the referee acted as nothing happened.

Incredible. This video counts a whopping 88 clinches initiated unpenalized by Andre Ward.

And watch how he slams his head towards Kessler's face every so often.

How can any fan of boxing say that this is not a tainted win?

and Amir Khan was penalized 2 points...guess it helps being american fighting a foreign opponent in America...

fun to see some hatton's fans complaining about Ward hit and clinch style

I hope the rematch comes off to shut you whining dudes up! Ward will again dominate Kessler...The skill set between the two is pretty wide IMO.

Kessler is poor with making proper adjustments and this will cost him if he and Ward were to fight again.
