Kessler is a class act and didn't even mention the injury when queried after the verdict.
Even if he did, he knew the risks - and was happy throwing it when he had too.
It was the best Kessler vs. the best Calzaghe. Thats all there is to it. And give Kessler his credit. By saying he was injured, which he was not, you are saying he was fighting injured and wasnt at his best. Kessler was not fighting like an injured man and was at his very best so you shouldnt insinuate that he wasnt, its not fair to him or Calzaghe.
Oh I read what you posted. I also saw someone grab Kessler's leg in the 8th round and that is why the ref stepped in. lolQuote:

Immediately after the fight Kessler was interviewed by British TV at ringside and was directly asked "was there a problem with the hand?" and he said "no, there was no problem with the hand" then he looked at the ground, a beaten man.
This report is just the Danish media giving the fans of the ex world champion something to cling to as they survey the wreckage from last night. It's for domestic consumption only.
First of all its Kessler that said this , to clarify the matter.
Ha had an injury prior the fight as he could not use the hand the last 3 weelsbefore. I agree at the night he threw the punches and it didn´t seems to bother him at the night.
This is also what he said himself. I have change the headlines ;)
I read the article that Saddo linked, and as I am a complete pedant ...... I thought I'd point out that the Vikings did not conquer Wales as stated in the article.
