    I'm on the fence, but Cal/Kess WAS a damn good fight though.

    What exactly can you tell about a fighter's skill, speed, power, timing, or anything the **** else from a few stills set to music?

    To get a little perspective, Liberado Andrade has looked completely bad ass in fights against the likes of Yousuf Mack and would be avoided like the plague by Hopkins, Wright and Co if his stock hadn't gone down with his loss to Kessler. He would probably be little legend around here as well, like a Valero or Malignaggi pre Njdoudo. However, Kessler totally tore him a new one in Denmark. Now when you think Calzaghe schooled kessler.... You would just have to think Calzaghe and maybe Kessler, beats all the yank fighters.

    I must admit I was not impressed with Kessler, aside from a few uppercuts he landed, he did nothing special in that fight. Calzaghe gave him plenty of opertunites, but Kessler chose not to pull the trigger. I give Calzaghe a little bit of credit, he was very active and threw punches with great speed. I have came to the conclusion, a good counter puncher will beat Calzaghe, maybe even knock him out if the punch gets in clean enough IMO.
