    I want to wait and see here. Is Kessler on the decline? How much did the head butts factor into this match? What if Kessler rebounds and makes it to the finals of the super six?

    My best guess for now is Kessler is on the decline, the head butts factored in to the results, Kessler has issues with speedy fighters,and he'll win his next match.

    Clazgahe has not lost a fight in something like 20 years. He has numerous title defenses, and some solid wins. I think Calzaghe's resume lacks a win over an all time great in his prime. Lots of great fighters have the same problem.

    Yeah, we mustn't forget that Calzaghe still has wins over Tocker Pudwill and Rick Thornberry on his resume !

    And Will Mcentire! I remember after that defense Larry Merchant was ragging on Calzahge so bad, all Joe could do is laugh. It was a total joke. This guy was plucked out of an Oklahoma boxing gym, and given a shot at a world title on HBO!:rofl

    Actually it was on Showtime I think, so it must of been Jim gray. Unfortunately its not on this clip, but if you looked up US midwestern tomato can boxer in the dictionary, this guys picture would be there.

    If the man could ever be considered an all-time great then our standards are much too low.
