This has to be the most idiotic and unprofesional sports article i have ever read.

This is the last time i will be visiting this site when i need some serius pre-fight information.
This aint objective in anyway, this is straight forward propagandistic.

Which serius editor would allow such a tool as Scott Gilfoid to comment on anything. Let alone write articles.
Shame on you !

Kessler is not your “typical” euro fighter-he has very good all-round boxing skills.He pushed a peak Calzaghe to the limit and if you asked Joe who he fancied before the tourney,I bet he’d say the Dane!Anyway,yet another one of your typical offerings.

Scott, I like Ward. But outside of speed, what has been all that impressive about Dirrell???

Oh yeah, there’s loads of American fighters i really like but Scott Gilford is slowly turning me against all of them. i.e Andre Ward, i really like this guy but i’m gagging for him to lose just to pi*s Scott off. Well done Scott, What a muppet.

Typical basic Euro fighters 2 Yanks 0. That’s all that needs to be said. I can’t wait for Scotts excuses when Kessler Ko’s Ward.

kessler will beat ward as ward isnt strong fast or technically brilliant he was a brilliant amateur a poor proffesional

kessler was a good amateur an elite pro closing calzaghe down and smashing him unfortunatly kessler didnt possese the ability to counter his speed and in out style ward will jump in and be hammerd all night and end with a tko

And, a knock out on either side is very unlikely. Andre Ward doesn’t have alot of power in my opinion. But Kessler was not able to put away Andrade who he seemed to be able to hit at will. So I don’t see how he would be able to knockout Ward, a guy with much better fundamentals and defense. This fight will be somewhat of a chess match.

Kessler will have no answer for Ward’s leaping left hook. Its called pot shotting. On top of that, Ward won’t even throw the lead left hook if Kessler doesnt ever lean to his own right before throwing a punch. Ward by UD.

Too old, too slow, typical Euro fighter, a throw-back to the 60′s?

Isn’t this exactly the same thing you wrote about Froch…

When will you do the honourable thing and stop writing just like you promised?

andrade was robbed against bute. Calling him the best of the division is laughable at best.

As for ward, let’s see if he lives up to the hype. I would guess not. I think if he jumps in trying to throw left hooks like he has in the past he won’t get through the fight. Kessler will flatten him.

What a rubbish. How can you say that Andrade wouldn’t last 12 rounds with Dirrell? It must be something wrong with your head.

I agree somewhat that SMW was the weakest division in boxing while CALZAGHE was around. Thats why he stayed there.
