      I thought Froch beat Kessler both times. Then again I don't rate Froch above Sir Joseph. Pauper Ward is lucky that he retired and gift wrapped him his most notable victory.

        Andre Ward is the best SMW of all time.

          LOL "in Denmark"

          Ward doesn't have a passport to travel there anyway. ****, he probably doesn't even know what a passport even is

            Wasn't Kessler the favorite to win the super six?

              and the asskicking preceded the headbutts. ward would have walked away with that fight without any clashes of heads. you're probably willing to accept that, but i know a few [tunney, bat,] who don't.
              I don't think it was Kessler's night no. But Ward's constant grabbing and head butting certainly didn't make it an honest, fair fight.

              He was much better in the Calzaghe fight, there are a few reasons for that. Even though it's rumoured he had a fractured hand. In Oakland, they play all kinds of tricks. And it worked.

              Kessler had a couple of devastating performances right after Calzaghe, so obviously this isn't true.

                Kessler can't fight on the inside for anything. Ward was just too quick for him in there. He could punch and rough house with no recriminations.

                I'd like to see Ward fight someone knew rather than Froch or Kessler.

                  Fighting on the inside does not equate to head butting and clinching.

                  If they were fighting fairly, Ward would have been eating uppercuts like Calzaghe was.

                    He wouldn't. Ward was way too quick for Kessler. He was timing him all night.

                    Kessler couldn't get those shots in because Ward closed the space so quickly which led to headbutts and all else.

                    Kessler was confused all night. I felt he should have employed some dirty tactics himself but he was way too polite.
