Update from Mikkel Kessler

If this is for real then all I can say is - "Class."

 

It's for real.

Apologies for the shitty google translation, but I'm at work so I can't translate it myself.

 

Froch will be much more then Kessler needs if he dosen't find the right answars.. and it has to be quick.. here is some key things that has to be a lot better in march:

*Go around your opponent and make room for hooks and righthands with the jab...

*Learn that right/lefthook to follow up your fine uppercut...

*or maybe the Jack Dempsey hook(the one Tyson later copied to perfection) that has blowed the face off the men who was standing to close on him... :good

*learn to do the infight like a real pro.. Froch is use to fight a lot from the inside so get prepared :think

* where is your long combos when the opponent is traped? make some new opening for the combo! if he ducks start with an uppercut!!

*the basic training for Kessler has been in the gym.. Maybe a faster movement is better for him(like Rockys trainning with Apollo )..

hope Kessler will fight on for the right reasons and there is only one.

Ward needs to wear a glove on his head.

Kessler should never have allowed Ward to have his personal referee. Kessler was very naive that he could get a fair fight in Ward's home town, with Ward's referee. The billy goat headbutt was obviously intentional, but ref would never to against Ward, not in a million years. Was gets all his fights in his home town. Why is that? I still do not understand why he gets everything he wants. If Ward were to lose a fight we would seen him throw a temper tantrum falling down on canvas and beating his fists! He must have been a very spoiled child.

 

I was never really sold on Kessler. He was always quite limited, one two and the odd left hook, all straight lines, predictable and not that impressive. Everyone started humping his leg after he looked OK in losing handily to Calzaghe. He looked terrible against Ward, absolutely terrible. His hissy fit in the post fight interview was hilarious, about as classy as a kicking a OAP in teh crotch for laughs.

 

He'll be too much for Froch, but it'll be by far the best fight of the tournament so far.

 

Even with this statement I still have issues.
I question IF Mikkel got old before our eyes.
I ask this because Ward's style is akin to Mundines. Both are fast. And he has delt with a faster unorthodox fighter in Calzaghe (though Calzaghe like to fight and not pot shot)
So to me he either got old or threw the fight.
So we watch it unfold...

 

Co -sign.

I never understood the hype about him .

His best efforts were a clear loss to a aging fighter...........

He will not improve., too ridgid............too old now to make major changes plus boxing is 80 % mental/ 20 % physical . Calzaghe took his confidence and it ain't coming back.
