You thread starter is CALZAGHE CANT BE BEAT.... You then stat that he is the BEST by far... You then stat you would love to see THE BEST IN THE WORLD BY FAR against Anthony ONE EYE Bumdine.. Wont happen,Anthony is on a mission to beat up the whole of argentina.
Mundine wld be lucky 2 survive 5rds with JC. I always loved how Mundine said Kessler was no1 and he was proud of how close he was in the first fight etc and said "i will be much better and will beat him in a rematch" Hey one eyed Pirate,ever heard of a bloke called Calzaghe who's been champ for 10yrs.
Calzaghe is a great boxer...too bad he is a poor Champion. Mundine would not beat Calzaghe and Joe will never fight him.
I have emailed Mundine's website and suggested he played DONT CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA for his next bout.. I also concluded by asking him how he felt watching the MASSIVE FIGHT today. Should be interesting to see if i get a reply..
Calzaghe can be beat and Kessler showed how to do this. Kessler was not as fit as Calzaghe and had a lower work rate - fix these two variables and Calzaghe will be beaten
You are wrong Having a good work rate is not all about fitness.............. it has something to do with talent as well mate. Kessler's had over 40 fights and 28yrs old....he also looked great physically......no excuses Calzaghe is a better fighter......even at 35yrs old
Granted work rate is also a function of seeing and capitalising on opportunities but Calzaghe can be hit with an overhand right and Kessler did not open up enough and I think that reflect a state of mind and also a factor of conditioning
It was more than that nrgetic - Kessler had a lower workrate because Calzaghe shut him down, not because he wasn't fit enough - those body shots early in the fight slowed Kessler down, and Calzaghe's constant pressure and speed prevented Kessler from ever getting into his rythmn. Kessler was succeeding with his jab early, and Calzaghe negated it. Then Kessler was getting plenty of overhand rights on JC, and they were then taken out of the equation. Kessler's uppercut looked to be the punch he would win the fight with, but Joe figured out how to negate that too. Calzaghe started wrongfooting Kessler and basically just confused him - at times, it looked like he was going to do a Lacy on him, but fortunately for Kessler he is a better boxer than Lacy, and came out of the fight with his dignity intact. Calzaghe's just relentless, he's amazingly fit.
