    We are trying to get the final title eliminator against Dan Ion rescheduled as the winner is the mandatory and guaranteed a shot against Alexander. Once done will let you know. Would never have given up the British albeit reluctantlyb had we known the Romanian's would pull this ****. Very frustrating.

    ****ing fell asleep 10 mins before the start. I take it Ward isn't 10/1 to win the Super 6 any more?

    I always feared Ward might be this good and had to make up bull**** to convince myself Kessler would win.

    Bar one knockdown his record later Amateur and Pro is flawless.

    And his ability to hold is awe inspiring - helped by the referee who kept accusing Kessler of the holding though.


    The Yanks are still giving Dirrell as chance against Ward, do that not realise how bad Froch is?






    Kessler will bounce back and win the tournament though, the people doubting him now will look foolish when he wins the tournament! Even with his trainer he can adapt with the time he has.

    i think Ward has to be joint favourite against Abraham now. He was the right mix of offence and defence - but he looked crap as a southpaw. He was so effective in the orthodox stance, why bother changing it.

    Can't see him losing to anyone else in the tournament, except for Abraham or Dirrell. And I think he has the footwork to offset Dirrell's amateur rushes, and he's a lot more effective on the inside.

    If Taylor carries on that is. What a weird situation Jermaine despite his recent record will be in a world title fight next time out if he does continue.

    Taylor's a little more versatile than Kessler, perhaps he can give Ward problems early.

    Kessler was outclassed. It was a whipping. Yeah the head went in, but from round 1 he looked clueless, he never got into a rhythm, he ate shots, was countered, slipped and made to look sluggish and predictable.

    He didn't even step up his output and go all out, he was taken apart. How the **** one judge had it by 4 rounds is beyond me. I think I had him winning one round.

    Watch the fight without volume.

    Kessler will bounce back and destroy Ward later in the tournament, no doubt about it.
