    Thanks for the compliment!:-( Who are you to judge if people are biased or not???? Based on the posts you added to this thread I tend to think you are a genuine fool! Feel free to prove me wrong.

    I think Joe will still outsmart and outslap Kessler for a UD slightly similar to what he did to Lacy.

    Just a reminder:
    As we close in on fight night we can expect more neutral posters. Let's hear your opinion. Also, Check out Decebel's biased poll thread.

    Max Kellerman talking about Mikkel Kessler being ambidextrous and positevily patient is doubly surprising since the three fights I saw from the Viking Warrior have given me a good illustration of the reverse, that there's nothing positive about it and looking upon his confrontation with Joe. The fights I saw were german telecasts vs Zdiarski and vs Beyer and HBO's telecast vs Andrade. Kessler's attitude in the ring is forecastable and clearcut beyond the possibility of misunderstanding - the six-footer is long muscled but still heavy muscled and can never impose the pace against Calzaghe in this upcoming match, cannot derive much from waiting for Calzaghe's whirlwind attack and counter with the stiff jab and the expect to land the right hand down the pipe, that one-two combination used against Markus Beyer, maybe a heavy left hook following the left lead but not very much else, and so relies solely on that his opponent's age will not make increasing inroads on his strength... And there's not even a case for the counterargumentative trademark comment "Once bitten, twice shy" for Calzaghe cause he has been down against Mitchell and turned it around whereas Kessler has not, Joe will come forward anyway...37 out of 39 outings in Denmark and now in his way to the snake pit? The versatile aggressor against the patient, dangerous counter-puncher? I have seen this sort of thing too many times - Calzaghe has enough left in him to beat Mikkel to the punch and thus, steal away from him what is his only chance to succeed and that is to catch the Welsh in his way in. Calzaghe wins more conclusively than against Lacy, that's my take on this from a complete unbiased perspective.

    I've only seen Kessler fight Librado so based on just one fight I think Calzag's handspeed and experience will carry him to victory in a close decision.

    If Kessler wins then he really is the real deal. If Calzaghe wins, I hope he gets the credit he deserves.......but somehow I doubt he will.

    Yes, if Kessler wins, it is because he was better, (unless it's a cut or something), not because Joe was too old. If Joe wins, it is because he was as good as his fans always said he was/would be...good enough to beat a very good, prime undefeated Champion.:good

    Although I would prefer a Kessler win, I think it will go the distance and Calzaghe will get the MD.

    Kessler could surprise me and catch Joe with a couple of good combinations but I don't know if MK has enough power to finish him. I think Joe's workrate will win him the fight. I will give the power shot advantage to Kessler but Calzaghe's volume will score him more points.

    All in all I just want a good fight!:happy

    That is dangerous territory, Decebal. Remember how highly some of them think of him (Godzaghe, he would beat Haye, Marciano a.s.o.:roll: ). If you changed it to 'sensible fans', then I would agree.
