    Pretty pissed I stopped up for this, Ward landed some super sharp shots and moved well but he spoiled and held like a fucking pussy in each round. I hate the cunt already.

    Typical reaction, similar to Hopkins fights, this was domination headbutts or no headbutts, holding or no holding. The only reason Kessler halfway got into a couple rounds is because Ward allowed him to. When Ward stuck to Kessler's chest and outmuscled, outworked him on the inside that got in his head and like Tarver pointed out, he was looking for a way out. Headbutts or no headbutts, that was a clear Ward victory.

    I can't get over that, that was a complete domination of a very good fighter. Amazing performance for such a young guy. I picked him but it was a gut feeling type thing, in no way expected that.

    Agreed. That was a huge coming out party for Ward.

    I reiterate what I said earlier, if Ward goes on to win this thing Bilbo will have correctly predicted the winner.

    Kessler is still going to starch Froch though.

    Why would Ward need to intentionally butt a fighter he was beating in literally every aspect of the game?

    Did you miss the posts about the holding and the ref only stepping in once ward was done throwing?

    Yes or a no will do

    By the way I don't know why he butted him, maybe to make sure he had every advantage going? The ref seemed to miss every one, somehow.

    Kessler just laid there on the inside and let Ward tee off. You can't rely on the ref to come in and break a clinch up just because you don't want to fight on the inside. Kessler was doing the majority of the holding early and that established him as the culprit in the refs eyes.

    I'm a huge Kessler fan, but he lost that fight fairly.

    Even when there wasn't any holding Kessler was still being out classed

    Exactly. Apologists please explain this intellectually.

    Agreed Kessler beats Froch...

    IMO AA wins this whole thing, Abraham just seems to be heads and shoulders above everyone else

    I'd love to see AA win the whole thing, I've been a fan of his since the first Miranda fight. I honestly think he's going to get beat by Dirrell. I know that sounds insane. He'll destroy Froch though as long as he doesn't cover up and let Froch wail away.
