Kessler makes Darren Barker quit in sparring

I understand the decision to leave but what did he expect? Kessler's not preparing for some 3rd rate opponent. It's the fight of his life. He'd be doing himself no favors to take it easy on his sparring partners.

 

Kessler looks to be in great shape. That ring is very tiny

 

:blood

 

Wasn't Mayweather claiming he made a SMW sparring partner quit?

 

Was that before or after they stepped into the ring?

 

During I assume.

 

He was close to making Hatton quit before they even stepped into the ring!

 

Kessler is ready...

 

I think Kessler will win too.

 

All this shite we hear now about boxers making sparring partners quit in the run up to fights is exactly that - shite.

It's all total rubbish, PR spin etc and means nothing come the fight itself.

I wish camps would stop trying to leak info like this, it's boring.

 

It sounds like Barker "asked" for it, because on day one he apparently came out fighting like thunder and lightning and put pressure on Kessler, and Kessler was very impressed by him according to teampalles site. Perhaps Kessler thought two could play that game.

But I agree, this doesn't mean anything in terms of the Calzaghe fight, and I don't think anybody have said it did so lower the defenses a bit.

 

But I'm sure a lot of huggers on this forum is in line to fill the position.:yep

 

40 candidates at least, for the one job! It's as competitive as it is to join the firefighters!

 

If barker was trying to fight kessler than he deserved what he got, like williams when he tried to wrestle lennox lewis in sparring and got the sack.

 

It means nothing, but the fact than Kessler is ready to kill, every time you hear from Kessler you can see he's ready.
If calzaghe win's he is f***king good
