well done mate u were spot on.. i really couldnt see anyone getting past kessler after calazaghe did. we still have lots more boxing to come, froch and kessler maybe powerful and have good chins, but their footwork has much to be questioned against quicker fighters

Always interesting to see what new exciting and insightfull angles Scott has on Ward-Kessler in what must now be about his 674th article on this fight.
Imagine the volume, the brilliance, the insight, the depth if he would’ve been able to put all those intelligent thoughts into just one great article leaving no stone unturned. It would obviously be THE definite pre-fight article, the pre-fight BIBLE so to speak. No-one else would be able to match such an in-depth pure analysis of this fight between superhuman american athleticism and skill and the robotic, boring, stiff, old, rusty, inept, overrated, slow, clumpsy and not least FOREIGN wreck called Kessler.
Praise the lord we have Scott to light our way.

Almost all the great proffesional boxers from the past were olimpic champions:
Muhamad Ali, George Foreman, Michael Spinks, Sugar Ray Leonard, De la Hoya, Vitali Klitchko, Vladimir Klitchko, Lennox Lewis, Holyfield would have been had he not beed disqualified, and so on.
Ward is Olympic champ, and as such he is potentially a great boxer. Win or lose against Kessler, Ward is a good boxer.

Ward has all the physical advantages, but you never know. I think condition will play an important part in this fight.

haha not long to wait to see ward fans. i can not wait to see their reaction after ward knocked out in round 6.

to be honest ward has nowhere to go after this fight. if he was not in super six this guy would have never got a chance to fight kessler. but come fight noght he will not hear the last bell and probably end of road for a so called talanted fighter.

Once, many years ago, before the Cold War was history, USA was dominant in proboxing, but that is history now! After the former Soviet countries allowed their boxers to become pro, USA has become less and less dominant. Can anyone imagine what would happend when CUBA allows pro boxing?
I am not talking about those Cubans who deflict, but the ones who live in Cuba.
Ward is Olympic Champ, and because of that he deserves al the respect. Becoming olympic champ is much more difficult than becoming a world champ as pro.
Saying that, I feel that Kessler and Ward are the two best in super six. It is a disgrace to even mention Dirrell, who has shown nothing but good running skills against Froch.
As a dane I hope Kessler will win, but will not be surprised if Ward wins this one. Either way, it is going to be a close one to judge.

Barry Norton you say of Calzhaghe:

“He reached 1,696 punches in 180 seconds – that’s more than 9 punches per second averaged over the three minutes!”

I think you meant slaps not punches?

I’ll also hold you to your 12 round shutout prediction. And can we expect 25 articles from you if Mikkel wins the fight by a considerable margin about how the talented Andre Ward failed to utilize his superior skills? Or if Mikkel coasts to victory can we expect another one of your “Does anyone really think Mikkel looked good last night?” articles?

I like how you already gave Ward an out when you write “The only way that Ward loses this fight is if he doesn’t utilize his superior skills.”

Congrats, even if Kessler beats him to a bloody pulp you have successfully found a way to make an excuse for Ward, he just “simply didn’t utilize his superior skills.” What a load of crap.

What an idiot! Kessler to win easily.
And Calzaghe is much faster, and has better defense and better technique.

As for Dirrell he might be talented, but he’s also a coward. And boxers who run around the ring don’t win fights, especially in the champions hometown!
