    Calzaghe is great -- but untested ... you can't take anything away from the 22 title defenses ... you can't take anything away from his undefeated record...

    It is hard to remain undefeated and continue fighting ... fighters will give it all they got just to be the one to give him his first loss.

    Look at Frankie Randle against JCC -- no one thought he could do it

    Look at Antonio Tarver against RJJ -- no one thought he could do it.

    Look at Hopkins v Tito ... alot thought that Hopkins was cashed

    Look at Nate Campbell v Juan Diaz ...

    Ross Purity v Wlad Klitschko

    Oliver McCall v Lennox Lewis ....

    Douglass v Tyson

    man the list goes on and on and on ...

    we'll just have to see in april

    This is dumb. Of course Joe would say that. Kessler is the best fighter that Joe has faced, of course he would say that Hopkins cant beat him.

    Hopkins would bust Kessler a$$, talk about someone being overrated. You have guys saying that Hopkins is overrated then saying that Kessler who has a resume fill of punching bags and former featherweights great. The knowledge on this site is on the decline and fast.

    First its the Pac is better then Leonard and now this:-(

    Kessler's been beat ... the blueprint is already out there ... Hopkins would frustrate him to the point where he folded and quit his game plan.

    I'm astonished by the people claiming that this is a bad style match up for Bernard and that Kessler is tougher for Hopkins than Calzaghe...I see the styles as favouring Hopkins heavily.

    Of course Calzaghe would say that. :patsch He just beat Kessler. Why discredit his own win.
