Yahoo's Iole on Kessler - what a dumb ass!

Nice comeback... Clown:good

 

So why is it when American fighters fight ALL their fights at home they aren't considered hometown fighters? It works both ways really.

 

Just read that. Hendo came across as a pretty stupid **** in there.

At least he had the sense to bail when his ass was gettin' raped at the end.

And now he's at it again. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

 

Here we go again with that bull****

 

Well he pulled out of a wbc eliminator fight with Danny Green because of an injury but made an amazing recovery fighting to for the WBA title less then 3 months later:deal

 

I have to say I find your comments odd and to some extent delusional. They stink of an anti-Kessler vendetta. The man has had four of his 11 world title bouts in his opponent's backyard. I doubt if there are too many other recent world champs or top contenders who can say better than that, except probably the South Americans and Africans who travel for economic reasons. And then you try to do down those bouts by raising completely irrelevant issues (such as Ward's relative youth) or telling complete lies (this non existent Danish judge against Mundine- the Juges in that bout were a Japanese, a Canadian and a Dutchnan). How can you expect to be taken seriously?

Let's look at the "on the road" record of the super six fighters shall we? Kessler, four title fights on what was certainly "away" territory. Froch has had two of his four bouts away, taking Kessler inHerning and going to the US to fight Taylor. Abraham has taken Dirrell in the States and also fought the Miranda rematch over there as a non title bout.

Meanwhile, Jermain Taylor had never left the States before fighting Abraham, refusing a world title final eliminator against Howard Eastman when he found out he'd have to travel. He was also going to refuse the Froch fight (another world title fight). Andre Ward has never left the States and insists on having all his fights in Oakland. Dirrell has left the States once. Those two are now on the verge of calling their bout off since neither is even prepared to leave their hometown.

In terms of big fights/title fights on the opponents turf, Kessler has more than anyone else in the tourney. So why single him out as an alleged stay at home fighter is beyond me when most of, if not all, the others are far worse.

I thought Kessler looked pretty **** against Froch. I actually felt he looked in better form against Ward than Froch even though he lost to Ward and beat Froch. I figured it was because he was coming off a loss and needed the tuneup.

 

I've seen man come out of the ring almost blind, and to this day he is blind, and the color of the eye is orange. Fuk Iole, and the rest of his ilk who think like him... He wants people to read what he has to say now, so he can clarify himself later lol...
