I shat myself during that fight!

Echo this post, Kessler has a new fan here, he will bounce back no problem.

 

Even as a Kessler fan, I couldn't help enjoying Calzaghe's style - unbelievable fast hands. A great and fair fight. Calzaghe is the king, and Kessler showed that even though he is number 2, he is far above everyone else in that weightclass

 

I thought the fight would play out like that one paper, Mikkell would give him a hard fight early then Joe would take over.

But when I saw that 4th round I did get nervous that my prediction would be wrong.
Ive never rated Kess a huge puncher, just thought he was quick, accurate and a big guy for the weight. So i wasnt expecting him to land such vicious blows.

Shows Joe's experience and chin to come back from that round like nothing had happened at all. A lesser fighter would have gone into a shell for a round or two , an even lesser fight would not have made it out of that round.

Though Joe won clearly and schooled him essentially, I always thought Kessler was just a few punches away from turning the tide. It was an exciting fight till the last bell.
