    I think he would. First fight was close. It was only 115-113 for Calzaghe, fact! :deal

    He was hurting Calzaghe in the middle rounds,

    In Denmark it's Kessler's fight.

    As well as the 115-113 to Calzaghe you forgot the other two scores of 117-111 and 116-112 to Calzaghe, fact ! :deal

    But if you look neutral on the fight Calzaghe had it 115-113 and many others feel the same way ;)

    The rest was clear in this particular case, super Joe would have beaten Kessler anywhere.

    Fighting at home in front off 55.000 people is bound to have an effect on the outcome of the fight. To suggest that location is not a factor is a bit naive.

    Would Kessler had won if the fight was in Copenhagen??? My money would still have been on Calzaghe.

    Not a fair comparison... But by your logic, Froch would have won against Dirrel if the fight was in the states?

    no, not fact your opinion which just so happens to be wrong. The best i can score that for Kessler is a 116 - 112 loss, it was an easy fight to score.

    joe won because he was able to make the adjustments . . . it was close but clear. Maybe if Kessler had the crowd with him and not against him, who knows. The fight was a lot closer then many people seem to think it was . . .lik 115-113 or 116-112 at best.

    No doubt about it, you're 1,000 miles from home and you're surrounded by Vikings who would like to cut your throat.
