    Personally I'm delighted that this is seemingly going ahead in SEPTEMBER! It's about time Palle grew some balls and ****ed his 50th anniversary that nobody else cares about outside of Denmark. This fight has been made due to the money involved. Great stuff. If Joe is anywhere near his best, he'll be too good for Kessler. Mikkel is too predictable to win this fight and although I respect his power, it's not the devastating variety Calzaghe has been in against. Neither is his style. Calzaghe adapts well - he doesn't get hit by jabs (Kessler's best weapon), his hand speed is nothing like anything MK has faced before. Sure he fought Mundine, but Mundine doesn't throw the volume of punches Joe throws from all over the place. Calzaghe's footwork will also be able to get him inside and turn it a bit ugly - here is where he'll get his best success. As for his chin, he got put down by a massive right hand from a big puncher, got straight back up and KO'd him within 20 seconds.

    The more I think about this fight and look at Kessler, the more I think Calzaghe has enough to win this fight in a convincing fashion.

    I'ts a 50/50 fight. for those who think of Kessler as a one dimensionel fighter, you will be suprised:yep , Kessler is a very complete fighter, he is not makind things
    difficult, thats why it somtimes looks like he is one dimensional, he just smashing his opponents, and it looks so easy. He is a very clever boxer.
    Calzaghe need to be on top for that fight:bbb , otherwise he will be ko'd in the early rounds. But if he'll come out with he's best it will be hell of a fight.S/D:think .
    May the best man win!:good

    The bookmakers started with Kessler slight favorite 55-45. Since then odds have moved so that Calzaghe was the favorite 2 weeks ago with 60-40.

    These odds all said 3/10 in Copenhagen.

    If the fight happens in Wales expect Joe to be bigger favorite. Probably 75-25 or so.

    Just a signature away from happening? So not really any closer then - how long does it take to sort out a fight ffs.

    this has to be the most anticipated fight this year moreso than the farce that was oscar-floyd. with so much bs and bluffs being spewed by both palle and warren, i'll believe it when they do a presscon hell even that's not a 100% guarantee it will push through, i'll believe it when they staring at each other form across the ring. joe should take care of kessler.

    The last 5% are usually far the hardest to actually get in place.

    Massive chance for the Kessler fans to earn some cash on a big bet I guess! The odds at a Britsh bookmaker will be stacked in Calzaghe's favour after they made Lacy favourite - so they'll be overly cautious. With the fight likely to be in Cardiff, that will also sway their odds.

    So my message to Kessler fans, if you're so convinced, set up an online account with a British bookmaker.

    Or you could take my advice and refrain from throwing your hard earned Krone and Aussie Dollars away!!

    In a project.
    The first 90% og the project takes the first 90% of the time, the last 10% of the project takes the other 90% of the time.

    If Kessler is the underdog I will put 1000 USD for him to win. Please tell me where I can find the best odds.

    My dear Blocky. Now I dont hold you in the highest regards regarding your opinions about boxing... But I didn't know that you were a cheapskate as well. I think a bookie can offer me better odds than this. But I will make the bet and I will show you the reciept. Then you can do the same.
