    Yeah but that video was from the Showtime as opposed to someone's personal edited video ..Sorry I trust the pros as opposed to those with agendas :good

    so 30 seconds of edited footage gives a more accurate representation of a fight than 5 minutes worth? good for you.

    I actually watched the fight but that edited video only shows a small glimpse of the fight..But like I said that was edited to favor Kessler you want to use that vid as gospel than be my guest Kessler was schooled and some people just can't accept that !

    that video was edited to show how often ward clinched kessler. the fact that showtime could only find 30 seconds of footage to use as highlights tells its own story. schooling? anywhere else ward gets points deducted then disqualified.

    Kessler was flustered Ward tagged him at will is it Ward's fault Kessler couldn't fight on the inside ? Were there clinches yes Ward is no saint here I don't want to make it sound like that but that's not the whole story of the fight that's all I'm saying..

    Translation: "Other fighters are using the fact that I can't legally fight as an excuse not to fight me".

    Anyway, now that he has settled his legal issues, we'll see if Ward is interested in Kovalev's offer. I suspect Ward wants other people to move to his weightclass, but is unwilling to move to someone else's weight class.

    What fight were you watching Ward was on the inside as well and when I mean fight on the inside had Kessler shorten up his punches when Ward came in maybe there would have been less head buts or clinches ever think about that ?

    Right once again if he knew how to fight on the inside Ward would have been hesitant to initiate a clinch or do you not understand how the game works ?

    Quick clinch honestly seems everything that went wrong for Kessler was Andre 's fault he was even throwing looping punches as well but I know
    that was all the clinches and the headbutts that lost him the fight not the punches ! Every time Ward got close all Kessler did was back up trying to get to his range with his head usually straight up where were his uppers and hooks ? Yeah I know that was Ward's fault to..

    Kessler did none of this ! He allowed Ward to bully him..But I know that was all Ward's fault

    Oh brother ..The height of corruption:lol:


    Hey not my fault Ward made him look like an amateur at times ..Guess it was Ward's fault to that every time they broke from the clinch Kessler went straight back .But I have never in all my yrs ever seen a boxer win a fight on 88 clinches alone I'll let you tell it it had nothing to do with all the clean punches he took from Ward ..

    And the reason that Ward isn't isn't in that video is because it was done yrs ago


    Kessler used no angles nothing ,Ward likes to smother his opponents

    Why couldn't Kessler negate his attack ? Fighting off the clinch has been around for yrs why couldn't Kessler do anything about it ? or was it all of Ward's clinches that prevented him from punching ?
