Andre Ward vs. Mikkel Kessler - who wins?

I want Andre Ward to do well. So far in the Showtime Super 6 the United States has taken a back seat to the European talent base. I think for Andre to win he will need to take his fight game up a notch to be able to compete with a very competent and tough opponent in Mikkel Kessler. This is uncharted territory Andre and this is probably the first time feeling this kind of pressure to win since turning pro. He does have the tools to frustrate Kessler and will need to concentrate on not giving an advantage. Meaning he will need to be aware of Kessler's power and not be caught in a situation where he lets Mikkel get easy points on either a knockdown or standing 8. If this goes to the cards I believe with no knockdowns against him Andre Ward will be the clear winner.
