    It's impossible to for Joe to get Lacyed, he invented the Lacy treatment. Even guys who could beat him, would never Lacy him.

    Kessler, despite being very impressive, has a stylistic flaw that a tremendous swarmer can exploit, thus the possibility of Kessler being Lacyed is slightly there.

    Besides, is Kessler supernatural? Only supernaturals have the ability to Lacy opponents.

    No, Joe cannot be lacyed...KOed - YES...in theory. Lacyed - for all intents and purposes - NO.

    If Enzo is willing to cheat to win then he is not a winner in my opinion. Moral is a big part of being a winner if you ask me. But

    Interesting that the consensus is either a Calzaghe decision, or a Kessler
    (t)KO. Particularly as Calzaghe has a proven chin...

    That doesn't make such sense when I think about it, because if you get lacyed you do lose!:p

    I'm bold to make such a bet, but in retrospect it's not a big deal in comparison to the 3,000$, 6 month avatar and sig bet and 6 month off bet I had rested on a mediocre guy like Pavlik, I realise the many different scenerio's that can play out in Cal-Kess, all of course being Joe Calzaghe victories.:yep

    You are right...sorry...I meant to say: "Would he rather put himself in the situation where he might get lacyed in order to win"...(i.e.would he take the pain/detruction of getting lacyed if that is what it took to ensure a higher chance of ultimately winning?

    :good

    Kessler is going to beat Calzaghe in every round and end the one-sided contest with a super uppercut in round 4... that's my dream..;)

    but i think this game will be very close the first half of the game..
    then Kessler finds his game and cuts Calzaghe with the superb jab..
    the cut gets bigger and the ref. stop the fight in round 9..
    Kessler tko 9 Joe Calzaghe..:!: :bbb

    I have seen a lot of Calzaghe's fight but he is simply not on the top anymore and Kessler is no Lacy
