    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.
    The fratures hand was real. He didn't spar for Calzaghe and had the hand surgically repaired afterwards. Palle didn't want to cancel the fight since it had been so difficult getting Calzaghe and Warren to sign.

              The dane announced his retirement just last week and hasn't been in the ring since a decision loss to Carl Froch in London nearly two years ago.
              this is BS, this fight means absolutely nothing now, Kessler is almost reaching the end, if it hasn't already been beaten into him by Froch.

                  BTs headline is literally: "retirement was bogus. Kessler-Ward"

                    What is ward asking for to take this fight? Like $7 million lol...Kessler is so shot already, talk about a money grab..
                    Ward has quickly faded into obscurity in the boxing world.. Who's next Arthur Abraham ? Then maybe Pavlick will be out of rehab in time for his third tune up...
