Interview with Kessler today: The eye injury is now .....

Damn....we got TWO fighters with potential career ending injuries from "QUESTIONABLE" activity during their fights. Ward butted Kessler a number of times but I do feel they were unintentional...and Abraham hit Dirrel while he was on the ground.

Both Andre D and Kessler may never continue their fighting careers. A shame.

 

**** andre ward i hope bute uppercuts his ****ing head off for this!!!

 

Ward, is as dirty as they get.

 

Does this guy grasp the concept of disproving a point against him or what?

 

This Super 6 is brutal. Wish him the best.

 

acidental clash of heads ruled by the ref is diffrent from
getting dqd for hitting a man on his knees that was intentional like i said you cant hit a man on his knees in ufc

 

Real talk! The idea of the super 6 is great but unfortunately it's been a problem since it got going. From contraversial decisions, questionable ring activities, to the severe injuries... I hope they can some how salvage what's remaining of the S6 Tourney.

 

It should just be a simple elimination. To many high level fights back to back. Guys are going to get hurt.

My hats off to Showtime for being so ambitious though. :thumbsup

 

god help us if these things happened in boxing in general

 

Actually, no. You don't need depth perception to drive.

I never needed it when I had a real bad case of sore eyes that shut my right eye for one week. Was still able to go to my university classes during that time, just with a bandage over my right eye.

But then again, I've driven for a long time in my life, so calculation with driving are pretty natural at that point.

 

They just happen a lot more often when you stack so many high level fighters in a tournament that is far too long. :good

 

All you have is hope.

Bute is too soft to make your dreams come true:hi:

 

the dirrell - froch decision is part and parcel of boxing and kessler's eye injury isn't a new one. it's something he's been dealing with for quite a while.

 

I want Bute to get his can kicked for being the long count cheat he is.

 

I am not disagreeing with you. I am just saying that these are extremely high level fights close together. IMHO, Kessler would not have taken so many brutal fights back to back knowing his condition. AD/CF? I agree that is boxing and, though I favored Dirrell, could see the controversy.

Boxing is a brutal business. There is just too much riding on a tournament this long and brutal for it to make sense. A simple bracket would have more than sufficed.
