    It's especially impressive when you consider that he injured his hand before the fight. Frank Warren recently said in an interview that Kessler was going to pull out of the fight and that he had to pay him £500,000 out of his own pocket to get him to fight anyway.

    Well Ward won every round against Kessler so he'd nearly certainly do better. Bute too is faster and trickier than Kessler. Froch would get completely schooled

    As B-Hop once said "Who is Kessler?"

    I've never been very impressed by Kessler. I find him robotic and limited. Andre Ward would have beaten any version of Kessler, and would certainly have provided Calzaghe with a much more difficult evening.

    Hope your homeboy will fight in Europe Against Kessler or Froch one day!

    Ward was so protected by the jugde against Kessler..
    In Denmark it would be a different game!
    Let's see what he can do away from home...

    Bute was KO'ed by Andrade
    How good is Bute's chin?

    I agree JC is currently the best smw ever and largely because of his assencion put the smw division in the spotlight it currently enjoys. Not overly impressed with the list there though.

    Is there any truth to this? I've never heard that.

    :patsch Calzaghe looked better than Ward against Bika.
    It dosent mean anything dummy. G Johnson KOd Green and Ward couldnt.
    Kessler wasnt the same fighter against Ward etc.

    You see how silly you are dip****

    Allan was leading the fight on 2 of three scorecards vs Johnson before the stoppage. Green got shutout vs Ward.

    Didn't think Kessler got disrespected on here. From what I remember no ones had a bad word to say about him.

    I know. But Green was also KOd by Johnson in 6 rounds and unable to go the distance like he could against Ward.
    The point is to an earlier quote that it dosent mean much
