    Calzaghe wasn't fighting tonight. His name is irrelevant. Styles dictate the fights.

    No.

    Ward's headbuts has done far more. Both are spoilers, but Joe is a 'clean' spoiler, while Ward is a dirty spoiler.

    Yes, Calzaghe's mighty slaps took years out of him. :rofl

    If anything, Palle ruined Kessler. Nah, I take that back. Ward ruined Kessler.

    **** no. Kessler took a worse beating at the hands of Ward than he did Calzaghe.

    Why is Kessler's career determined by this Joe guy. I don't know if you folks heard or not, but Calzaghe is retired. After seeing a performance like this by Ward he'd better stay that way.

    Its a combo + maybe Kessler is not all that and Ward is quite something.

    Yes, you could see those almighty slaps just taking years off Kesslers life. I would be suprised if he makes it to 40.
