Kessler will need a knockout to get a split decision, but he should be able to stop Ward. Still, Ward has the judges, referee, commentators, venue, etc. Kessler much be very confident coming into Wards backyard.
how good is Wards jaw? has he ever been down or stunned? havent been able to find any thing online that gives me answers
Kessler! But I suck at predictions. I'm worst then Atlas. I probably just doomed Kessler by voting for him.
Rocked in his second pro fight vs Kenny Kost and was dropped by Darrnell Boone. But as someone that thought he sucked and would never make it past a gatekeeper he has improved 1000% since then and as he moved up in weight and got older his chin seems to have gotten sturdier.
head says ward hometown SD heart says kessler ko it probably wont be as cut n dry as people think... it all depends on who establishes there will early on,i can see ward being the busier fighter and the rounds going to whoever lands the more effective punches which has to be kessler,i think ward starts well but kessler gains centre ring mid rounds and starts to pick his shots,i dont rate wards power but i do rate his ability,it will be your classic style clash,question is will they gel!!!
