Kessler is saying that he wants to fight Ward and Froch but both are unwilling?

    Or Maybe Kessler lost because he was caught illegally wrapping his hands, and his punches didn't have the same effect, as they did against previous opponents.

    Fans who keep saying Ward won because he was in Oakland, don't know the whole story, or will except the fact Kessler and his people where caught wrapping his hands illegally.

    I didn't hear about or know about that

    Naturally I'm not for illegal hand wrapping but regardless

    Ward did clinch too much to the point where it wasn't within the rules anymore and the ref didn't do ****

    Kessler was clinching him back . There wasn't even any strength in those holds by Ward.
    And its edited in a way that doesn't show Ward box out of the clinch.

    Kessler just wasn't good enough and didn't know how to fight in the trenches.

    Go watch the fight , not some biased slapped together edit job of the fight:patsch

    If Ward had such an easy night first time around it seems completely stupid he wont go to Denmark for a huge paycheck?? I see doubt in Wards eyes....

    I think prime Kessler beats any version of Froch but that's just my opinion. Ward is a different matter but it has to be taken into account that Ward was allowed to get away with murder that night in Oakland.

    Would it have made a difference had he not been allowed to hold and headbutt whenever he felt like it? Prob not but to see a world champ as respected as Kessler put his title on the line in the backyard of a contender who isn't even a draw get treated like that was an absolute disgrace.

    Wouldn't mind seeing Kessler fight either Ward or Froch again but I'm not exactly dying to see those fights either, I could take them or leave them. The fact that he is not willing to fight other opponents tells me he's lost some hunger and should probably hang them up.

    As a pro, you have to know how to deal with being tied up. Its not so much of what Ward did, but what Kessler failed to do, to keep it from happening.
    Again This is on Kessler to find way to adapt.
