    Headbutts, hold and punch, use shoulders and clinching.
    That's what I disrespect!

    Kessler isn't beating Froch, if he does then I'm fully expecting the likes of you to claim he's beyond shot once Ward schools his overrated ass again.

    Kessler has been a worldclass fighter for many years now,so please tell me why he is overrated.nobody has called him p4p 1 or something crazy like that.But he IS one of the top fighters in the 168 weightclass.

    5 times worldchampion.....
    in 9 years one of the best in his division.
    I know he is no Mayweather,Pacquiao,Marquez...But i think he will never get the credit he deserves.And has never been KOéd or TKOéd lost 2 fights the first one lost UD to Joe Calzaghe,the other one lost by doctor stops contest during 3 cuts....KO ratio= 72,9.

    But do you, like Kessler, admit that Ward was the better fighter on the night and thats why he won?

    He was, but when Kessler can't see on one eye due to a headbutt half the fight. Then it really don't count for much in my book.

    Do you admit that Ward used illegal tactics against Kessler? :deal

    The winner rematching Ward is very likely, but a different result isn't.

    Froch-Kessler will be a close fight imo... Personally I don't believe Ward wants to fight Kessler again..

    Yeah. Make it happen. Not in Vegas though. Rather Copenhagen or London. That would be fair.

    Ward would be a big favourite but then he would against anyone in and around 168.

    The winner of Kessler / Froch is by the most deserving of a shot at Ward.

    Whats the point,i dont see kessler doing anything different,it would a wide ud for ward,forget the first fight,this one would be more convicing,I agree that the headbutts were ****ed up.
    But kessler had nothing for ward prior to them.Same as froch.
    I like all three especially froch but i dont see either of em beating ward.
    I would really like for ward to move to 175.

    Boxers do that stuff all the time.

    The greats were dirty. Holyfield,Tyson,Hopkins were all rough fighters. Much rougher than Ward.

    Thats boxing.

    What important is that the better wan won the fight. i.e. Ward.

    Besides Kessler's win over Froch in the super six, are there any other wins seriously worth mentioning or bragging about?, Andrade and Mundine?

    That said, he went in the super six as a favorite, that all alone proves he's overrated.

    Based on styes, it will always be a close fight unless one fighter lands a shot that ends it. Surely, only Kessler fans of the highest drunken order believe Ward is "scared" of fighting someone he already fought and beat.

    I believe Ward did what he had to do to get the win against Kessler... The question is if he will be able to win without the holding and the headbutts outside Oakland?
