    I disagree totally!!!! You didnt continue watching the fight cause you couldnt see a KO happening but if you would have continued watching you would of seen a young guy pushing back one of the biggest guys at that weight. Ward was like a baby to him in size but he still managed to push him back as well as fight on the inside punishing miranda with a multiplicity of punches. You have to love the sweet science not just the KO's:yep

    No, I lost interest in the fight because I don't find potshotting and clinching to be aesthetically pleasing. I think repeatedly clinching when you're not seriously hurt or exhausted is essentially conceding to the fact that you lack an inside came or you can't compete with someone in close quarters. That's not what I consider science. That's what I consider boring and a cancer to the eye. If I want to see science, this damn sure isn't a fight I'd pull out of the archives.

    He's talking about their first match, where AA got his jaw broken.

    Appears like Dirrell Fans are for Ward now. Kessler has zero chance vs. Ward. I guess Ward's judges, referee, commentators (to tell you won is winning) Kessler did not have to fight Ward in his hometown, but.....Didn't Ward said that he was going to cheat?! Did I hear that?! What did he mean?! Why did Kessler agree to fight Ward in his hometown with Ward's judges, ref, etc.? There is a reason for such. I would never have done such, but I know boxing politics. If Kessler holds, runs, falls down on canvas, and complains, he should win every round, thus, according to Dirrell fans. Dirrells fans give Kessler zero chance. We will see..........

    I admit it was a bit of a masterpiece he did on Miranda. No one had ever shut out Miranda like that for almost every second of the fight.

    He did hold a bit too much, and the holding is what is killing boxing to the mainstream audience.

    I have said it from the very day the super-six was set up and the matchups was named. The winner of Kessler vs Ward will win the whole thing. I have no doubt in my mind about that. To me they are head ans shoulders above everyone eles. I think that Dirrell is the most talented fighter, and AA has the most heart. But Ward and Kessler are the most complete and rounded fighters.

    The clinching didn't really bother me too much because he was still bullying miranda imo. He didn't seem like he was just holding because he was tired or didn't wanna get hit.

    Yes, he dominated Miranda prety well but I wouldn't call it somekind of masterpice. Ward fights ugly as hell. He's one of those guys who does whatever the **** he has to do to win a fight at the expense of action or looking prety. So he scratches and crawls his way to victory if he has to which I guess has served him well till now because when I see Ward I see a fighter with average talent but undeniable will and that's what's gotten him this far in his career.

    Unfortunately in boxing you need a great range of talent, skill, and will to fight at the world class level and I just don't think he has all the necessay ingredients to go very far in this tournament.

    He did not impress me at all, sure he's a good fighter, but all that holding / hugging come on! Kessler is on another level than Miranda.
