    you thought kessler looked scared?

    he was smiling and talking about the fight immediately after the fight finished.

    if you think for a minute a pro fighter is 'scared' you dont understand the mentality it takes to get to that level.

    dont talk rubbish.

    Of course fighters can get scared. Anyway, i think kessler had the reaction that most of us had when JT went down so hard

    Relax dude... Im proberly the biggest Kessler fan here.. HE looked stunned for a moment when Taylor was on the floor.. For a moment he did.. Maybe it was a "pheeew i hope Taylor is okay".. Or a "damn what a punch".. Maybe it was, "damn i need to pee" WHO knows? Im just bringing a discussion.. NOT rubbish talk dude!

    Your translation is a little of... About Abraham: "He has a lot of heart, and he wears people down. But he is not a great technical fighter".

    its rubbish only that you suggested kessler might be scared.

    thats a lack of education to what makes the essence of a fighter.

    Well if a good technique means losing to JT, then AA was right in implementing the wrong one. Kessler should have tried it against Cal. He could have won.

    I'd think a single punch spark-out ko with seconds to go in a fight would bring a "damn!" reaction from anyone.

    And technical boxing certainly isn't AA's bread and butter. Funny thing is, he does make it look "easy": be strong as hell, perfect a power punch, keep your hands up. And, of course, a good chin if anything goes wrong doesn't hurt.

    Kessler was not scared. He looked at his friend and basically said, "Damn, did you see that punch?" and shook his head, but he was smiling. He seemed up for the challenge and excited.
