    The best reason you can give is something that A. hasnt happened and B. will never happen?

    lol your saying Kessler will beat because look what he did to Beyer? There completely different fighters. I could say "look what Calzaghe did to the Orthodox fighter Lacy, Kessler doesnt have a chance".

    Man, i cant wait to here the excuses when Calzaghe takes Kessler to school.

    Not only Beyer, but because he hasen't lost more than a couple of rounds on the scorecards his whole career. Because he is a better boxer and puncher than "lady-punch-joe". Because he is stronger and younger.

    Joe's chances are very slim even in Cardiff. He has had shitty opposition the last 5 fights. Just take a look on the Rings rankings of their respective opponents.

    Joe is hype and builds his "aura" on Lacy and almost nothing but Lacy the later years.

    That old slapperfart will be the big loser in this one.:fire

    You better let the bookmakers know because all the international bookies have Calzaghe as reasonable fave,I wonder how much money you are actually prepered to stake on a Kessler win?

    Do you all see this...

    I have just been called a mundine fan! :)

    That's some funny **** right there, I'm sure most would agree, haha.

    Not a fan, but benn was too slow and talent lacking to ever get to Mundine. By Using Mundine as an example, I talk Kessler up, ken?

    Yes, he hit very hard, but that amounts to nought, when the guy you try to hit is not there. Kessler and mundine (And JC) would all murder Benn. (As did McClellan, I'm sure you remember)

    And yes Otke KO'ed Mundine, but at least Mundine had the guts to get in with Sven. Unlike certain Welsh horses...

    Mundine fan, hahaha. good ****. Thanks, mate.

    'As did McClellan' ?? Didnt Benn stop him late and end his career? Benn would stop Mundine inside 4 rounds, Kessler has a better chance but i would still favour Benn. You SERIOUSLY under-estimate Benn.

    And Calzaghe ducking Ottke...:lol::lol::lol::lol:

    You do realize that Benn is about 30 times as good as Siaca, whose pressure was enough to decision Mundine, and even make him hit the canvas.

    He also hits about 50 times harder than Ottke.

    Once Benn would connect on Mundine, they'd be sending for the stretchers.

    Haha you really are clueless aint ya. How about actually having a proper opinion rather than having Mundine and Kessler spitroast you similtaneously, how about it ?

    If you think Kessler and Mundine would beat Benn, then you clearly have no boxing knowledge what-so-ever. Mundine has beaten ABSOLUTELY NO ONE and lost to Sven 'i wont fight Calzaghe-Benn-Eubank-RJJ' Ottke. And who has Kessler beaten ???? OH NOES! his best win by about a million miles is against a timid Mundine who we've already established is average and has wins over no one.

    I cant wait for this Kessler bandwagon to dissapear, just like the Jeff Lacy one. Bring on November, after which forum posts will be dominated with "Why is Calzaghe ducking Bute" "Froch ko2 Calzaghe"

    Watch the Robin Reid vs Ottke bout and you will see what a B level fighter did against the German,Ried was not int he same class as a Benn or Calzaghe but he comfortably beat Ottke no matter what the judges and ref did.

    i wont. i see it for what it is. the best fight match up of the year, 2007.
    how many fans have wanted this fight. Kessler in my eyes will never be over hyped and if fans over hype him if Joe wins, i say shame on them.

    Because this will be the most interesting fight of 2007. who ever wins will be seen as a true Champ.

    We will find out. Kessler's reputation now is no better than that of Lacy just before Calzaghe took Jeff apart.

    These "rumours" always seem to come from "one guy who..."

    Well, anyone with half a brain can see that Joe never hit realyl hard and it was never a main part of his plan. Secondly, Joe is fighting much smarter these days that he did early on when he had some embarrasingly even fights with lesser people like Reid and Sheika. Not saying Reid is bad, but Joe really ought not to have had trouble with him. Much less Shaeika of course.
