Joe Calzaghe: Andre Ward is good but beatable

[erics44]

I would also like to see Ward being warned and docked for his holding. I despise holding and clinching and it is nothing more than a spoiling tactic. If it's good enough for Khan then it is good enough for Ward and it would also mean a fair fight for the opponent and a better fight for the fans.

I apply the same logic to many fighters. Hopkins is the other obvious one.

mate, it amazes me that the ward kessler fight went without any points taken off and how, since, when everyone refers back to it talks about what a good performance it was

every single cut on Kesslers face was made by the head, everytime ward missed with a punch his head went straight in

I watched it again this evening just to recap and I was appalled.

Granted it was Ward on the major stage for the first time, but he has got away with it ever since. It was a shameful performance and I really believe Kessler deserves a rematch and that he would do much better.

Kessler had no expectation of any of that nastiness. He paid the penalty.

And then Ward launches into his 'Good lord' spiel afterwards and his wife of course was interviewed during the fight and declared that Ward was fighting for his Lord or something like that. Completely brainwashed weirdos.

And like many Christians they fight dirty and then pray to the lord for forgiveness afterwards. You cheated, you were horrible. 'Oh but the good lord forgives those that buy into the babble'.

Cue projectile vomiting.
