WARD vs KESSLER

[Rantcatrat]

I thought Ward would win so this isn't a big surprise to me, but I agree that Ward fought a very Hopkinsesque style. He held at every chance possible. Kessler just couldn't adjust. He didn't know how to handle it. Funny thing is this is probably great for Froch because Froch may be able to come into their fight with a psychological advantage. Did Kessler's right hand ever reach Ward's chin?
