I was wrong, but i'm stunned by the reactin to last nights fight

[Spicoli]

Finally re watching,last night was a frenzied blur.Man,Ward is pretty wise beyond is young yrs.Kess was straight up tentative...pinned him in 1st on ropes and backed off.Ward was a ring general...very subtle cagey moves.Not talking about the headbutts and back and forth,he kept positioning Kessler round about 2:10 off ropes in 2nd with left hand.....he basically cupped him and Kessler had to reset (Kess should have punched him in the mouth).Impressed with Wards willingness....he walked to him and loaded up.

Missed that left on him coming in,those lefts were working well.sorry but Kessler was clueless on the inside in 3rd,he was clinching,complaining & Wards corner strategy was to punch into them and out of them.

One of the things boxers are taught at an early age is you do it until you are told not to do it. In other words, it's legal until it's illegal. In this case, the referee (and I have seen better) allowed Ward to hold, so Ward, like a veteran, continued to do it. That was being smart. As for the measuring, he should have been warned, but was not, so he continued to do it. The second heab butt did look like a billy goat-type butt but we will never know it it was intentional.

But like I say, you are out there to win and if you can get away with some of the borderline stuff (ala Hopkins), do it unless it is not in your disposition to fight that way.

By the way, this is my 1,500 post. Do I get anything?

Yup, the pictures of Oumafan and Fenster frolicking naked at the MOD Christmas party should be making their way to your inbox soon.

Is it good for me too, then? I would prefer MIssy and Diane frolicking together if possible, though.
